Happy HUMP Day!
Monday morning I shared on Instagram stories that I started a new challenge. I LOVE a good challenge. And it sparked an interest. Which I also LOVE. For anyone who wants a virtual accountability partner, I’m your girl.

Rice + beans? Yep, me too!

All the rules go out the window during self isolation: wanna drink at 9 am, do it. Stay in your pj’s all day, why not? Let your kids watch TV for 8 hours, 🤷🏼♀️ Eat all the quarantine snacks, fuck it. Do at-home workouts or sit on the couch, you do you!
We’re all just surviving🥂
I was thinking about the “things” that are legit keeping me sane at the moment. I’m sure we’ve all got a handful of must-haves. Here’s list of shit I must have or that I’m crazy grateful for right now!

Happy Hump Day homies! Trying to get back into posting at least one recipe per week. To be honest, I’ve got so many to share….I could post 2 per week. As requested – next week will be the pasta bake that I made Sunday. Stay tuned.
If you’re looking for a new healthy + fresh salad to add to your rotation – I got you boo!
This salad is great for meal prepping lunches too! It saves for about 3 days.
Two misconceptions about canned tuna:
And I’m sharing a recipe today to prove it!

Hi friends! It’s been a while since I’ve shared a recipe on here. So, I wanted to change that STAT!
This coming Saturday is Chinese New Year. And you know that I’m all about celebrating ALL THE THINGS. Holidays are kinda my thing! We like to go all out. Big or small. Holiday or not. Typically we celebrate with one main thing…….
FOOD!
Bay and I wanted to put a fun + healthy spin on one of your very favorite Chinese dishes. Fried rice. If Bay could eat fried rice every day, she 100% would. Ha! Since it’s the new year and everyone, inducing myself, seem to be on the clean eating train. I am currently on week #2 of the Kaia Fit 30-day Jump-start program. Which is very clean eating.
My wheels started turning and I decided to whip up on of my favorite healthy rice dishes. Shrimp + Pineapple Fried Rice using Hinode Calrose Brown Rice. Grown in U.S.A. Non GMO. Gluten Free. Heart healthy.
You can find a variety of Hinode rice at Walmart + Nugget Market.
Before we get started on the recipe, I wanted to chat a little more about Chinese New Year.

Dear Santa,
The tree isn’t the only thing getting lit this year! #sorrynotsorry
HAPPY FRIDAY FRIENDS!!!
As I typed the title, I thought – what a random post! Truth is, I’ve got so much to share and so little time. So we’re tag teaming these posts with all the things. Food + outfits! Why not?
Let’s start with why I LOVE all black outfits……
Slimming AF | I think we’re all down with anything to look a little slimmer, right? Black makes any figure, shape and size – look longer and leaner. And it’s so sleek!
Easy AF | By far the easiest color to dress up or dress down. Black jeans with a t-shirt and sneakers by day. Swap out with a heel + blazer and you’re instantly dressed up! Having great basics like this in my closet are a MUST!
Accessorize AF | Black is basically a blank canvas. So anything goes. You can always keep it simple with jewelry. Or bust out all the bright + fun pieces and let the jewelry be the statement. Add a leopard belt. Or a bright scarf.
Classic AF | It’s one of the most classic colors in your closet. Black will NEVER go out of style! When you dress in classic colors + pieces you will instantly look + feel put together with little effort.

According to WebMD, I just need to be on a beach drinking cocktails!
Ha! A girl can dream, right?
Tis the season to be busy. The other week, I ran around like a fucking mad woman. I didn’t even realize how mentally exhausted I was till I finally stopped. Work. Kid. Blogging. Social Media side hustle. Christmas Shopping. Holidays. Trying to be a good friend + mom + sister + daughter. And I’m still trying to make the season magical AF! Here’s what I did to hit my reset button! Before I lost my shit!

Today I’m breaking my 2 week silence…ha! Hi friends. I know it’s been quiet around here. Took a much needed break. Sometimes you just have to shut it down and walk away for a bit. But, I’m back today and feeling excited to start sharing ALL THE THINGS with you again.
It’s been over a month, May 30th to be exact, since I’ve even shared anything food related. Not even sure how that happened. But today is TACO TUESDAY! Like, the best day of the week….other than Friday + Saturday. So, I thought it was the prefect time to share my taco stuffed sweet potatoes. I straight up lived off these for lunch for a whole week.
Seriously, they are so good. And so easy!
