Blogging my way through work, weightloss, life, and the 20's. This blog has been many things. For a while it was my go to for weight loss,however, as that became a struggle it was easier to avoid it. So I would put obligations on myself to blog, which became a fail. This time around, at the place I'm at in life now, I'm just ready to share with others about what changes are occurring in my life.

Don't falafel, feel fantastic!"
Good Evening Y'all!
I was going to only post on weekends but I'm so super excited about this recipe for falafels that literally just made! Check out the full recipe here:
CrockPotFalafel
I did mine a little differently because I got home at 6 pm from decorating at school... And I didn't want to eat at 9:00, so I just cooked mine in the oven instead of the crockpot. I cooked them in muffin tins for about 15-20 mins at 400. AMAZING. End of story. I put tiny amount of olive oil in each muffin tin and drizzled some on the tops (no flipping). Another change I made was draining the chickpeas, cooking them, and then processing them with the mixture. Finally the dill sauce, the store I went to did not carry plain Greek yogurt (I know, right?) so I got fat free sour cream and Miracle Whip (love it) and mixed it with the celery seed and dill to taste.
Just as she mentioned in crockpot blog, it looks like a lot, but it is super easy and fast. 20-25 mins prep and then 15-20 cooking... Can't beat that! Try it and let me know what you think!
Write y'all this weekend!
P.S. Piper was excited about falafel night too!

New Year, New Me, New Blog
Oh my gracious! It's been forever! And sadly, I fell off my little red wagon....BUT I'm back and determined as ever!
2013 has new things in store for my readers...I am still continuing with my workouts (currently searching whole-heartedly for an awesome routine)...You know the saying, "If it ain't broke, don't fix it"--Well, it broke. Now I am putting it back together :0
I have new things in my life, in this new blog you will get to see them all! Summer 2012 gave me a wonderful gift! An opportunity to be the writing instructor at a local elementary school. I never knew how much I loved writing until I took this position! It has become my primary focus...Along with Crafts! I am slowly working my way through every single little Pin on Pinterest. I have some new healthy tips and recipes as well! Can't wait to get things started! New post will be made on the weekend so look out!
