An interesting gin. I could really leave it at that and do it justice, but It doesn't really tell you about it now does it. This gin is like one of your friends relationships when you're wondering how that happened and they say well it's complicated and leave it at that. As if you're some 6 yr old that won't understand grown up things. Although the description will fit I'm not about to treat you that way. Hendrick's Gin doesn't think you should be treated that way either and they're pleased to tell you all about this gin of theirs and why it's different. The website is rather amusing and looks like a Terry Gilliam segment of Monty Python's Flying Circus. Hendrick's is a Scottish gin. Hell you say? No Really it is. It's a pleasant, smooth gin that's not too juniper and has an interesting aftertaste. I came to learn while drinking Hendrick's that my tongue associates cucumbers with salt. That's the big difference, a very slight taste of cool cucumbers. I kept thinking it was a salty flavor, but there's no salt in it. Hence my discovery. It's not cucumber infused and doesn't taste like cucumbers, it's very slight and you might miss it. If you make it in a gin and tonic with a cucumber slice it becomes more prevalent. It and the rose petal aroma are very, very, ethereal. You only notice them like a ghost walked into the room. What was that! A strange encounter. You will not mistake this for something else. It's flavor is Gin. Juniper and Botanicals. If you like Tanq 10 or Bombay Sapphire this is worth a try. A light almost refreshing gin that has become my top shelf favorite.



The Cave Man's Pulled Pork

To contact us Click HERE
HUGE SHOCK ALERT! My hubs made dinner tonight. I honestly have to say this is the second dinner he has ever made since the history of us that doesn't have to do with breakfast food. On a mission, he made the easiest slow cooker pulled pork. It came out moist with a little kick to it. De-lish!


Here's the Man-cipe:
1/8 teaspoon chipotle powder1/4 teaspoon garlic salt1/2 teaspoon coriander3/4 teaspoon sea salt1 teaspoon cumin1 Tablespoon chili powder1 teaspoon onion powderDash of pepper
2 lb pork roast or tenderloin (no need to remove the extra fat it causes more flavor)
1 onion (nothing pretty just chopped)Cut up your onion and place in the bottom of the slow cooker. Mix all your dry ingredients together in a bowl then add to your pork by giving it a deep massage. Get aggressive...its ok go ahead! Place that on top of the onions. No need to add any liquids (the pork and onions produce just enough liquid) Cook on low for about 5 hours. Its ready when the pork shreds easily. Shred it up and place back in the slow cooker to soak up the juices. Then serve it up when your ready. This shredded pork tastes amazing with some homestyle coleslaw. Happy eating! 

Valentine's is in the air

To contact us Click HERE
I decided to send both my daughter and my hubs off to school and work tomorrow with some sweet treats in hand to celebrate Valentine's day. I of course found some amazing ideas on pinterest so I wanted to blog about my experiences with each recipe/craft.


Lets start off with the M&M Samoa Blondies found here:
http://www.sixsistersstuff.com/2012/01/valentine-m-samoa-blondies-recipe.html

These were super easy to make and DELECTABLE! I followed the recipe to the T. And the only issue that I had (maybe because it's my love hate relationship with my Korean oven) was that the tops of the M&M's burnt a little so I had to take the one's on the top off. Hence why no picture of my own (they did not turn out as pretty as these). I would suggest if you do bake these to put some foil over the top so they don't burn. This is also an easy recipe to have the kiddos help with. So out of 10 I give this recipe a 9. This is a keeper in my recipe stach :)



This one is called Two Ingredient Strawberry fudge:
http://cookiesandcups.com/strawberry-2-ingredient-fudge/
This recipe was super easy. I put the white chocolate chips in the microwave (just keep an eye on them so they don't over cook) and then stirred in the strawberry icing and placed in an 8x8" pan that had parchment paper placed inside. EASY EASY. This recipe is also from the site as well because I don't like how my fudge did not hold up. This recipe is a bit of a mess so I would suggest 'lil eyes can watch just not touch. As far as suggestions go with the recipe: Put the fudge in the freezer for a fair amount of time before you cut into them. It breaks really easy and when you handle it for to long (even with it being in the freezer before hand) it starts to get sticky. So how do I rate this? Well, I am not a huge fan of strawberry icing so I was not keen on the taste. The texture was also a bit off for fudge. It was too soft and creamy. Just think in between icing and fudge. However, I am a fan of how quick and easy it was. I will be making this again BUT next time I may try milk chocolate chips and the german chocolate icing, or white chocolate chips with dark chocolate icing. The ideas and flavors are ENDLESS with this recipe so this too will be a keeper (just not the strawberry one). I give this a 7 out of 10.



My daughter's actual valentine's gifts 
I love bear hugs and so does my daughter. This year we decided together that the above link was appropriate for this valentine's exchange for her class. I tried to keep the whole idea of what the link did but I did feel that Gummi Bears and Teddy Grahams were to much "bear" and not enough "hugs" so I kept the Teddy Grahams and ditched the Gummi Bears (sorry hope no hard feelings lil bears) So what did this mama do? I threw in some hershey hugs. So there you got it you have "BEAR HUGS". I am actually really happy with how it came out. I don't think the picture to the right does it justice. And your probably wondering how does a coffee mug fit into the equation of bear hugs. That is for her teacher. It is a coffee mug that has a top on it and I CRAMMED that puppy full of Chocolates. On her label it reads "You're A Sweet Treat". I really like how I coordinated the little treat baggies and the coffee mug. Honestly, that was not on purpose I grabbed these items at two different occasions. Oh well I am totally NOT complaining. So this idea for me deserves a 10 out of 10. Why? Well, what kid is not going to like chocolate and teddy grahams?

This is where I got my idea for my daughter's valentines for her class: http://familyfun.go.com/valentines-day/valentines-day-cards/bear-your-heart-675032/

Juice Cleanse Day 1

To contact us Click HERE
First off let me start by saying MERRY CHRISTMAS to everyone. I hope you had a blessed and wonderful day full of laughter, joy, love, family, friends and of course FOOD.

Speaking of food I have finally decided to do a 15 day cleanse. It consists of nothing but juicing vegetables and fruits. The documentary "Fat, sick and nearly dead" was the eye opener that my husband and I needed. I have included the website info below for more reading. Also you can find amazing info just by typing in juicing. You may be wondering why we are doing this cleanse.Yes, my husband is going on this adventure with me. He's great!! Neither one of us is fat or chubby. We have a little bit of fat here and there but who doesn't? I bet someone out there is thinking we are off our rocker. Well, no matter how thin a person is they still can be very unhealthy on the inside. The fast food that you had a year ago more than likely is still sitting in your gut, intestines and other organs of your body. DISGUSTING if you ask me. So this is a detox that cleans you from the inside out getting rid of the bad and in with the new. Great way to start off the New Year right if you ask me. I am a great believer in listening to your body and doing what it tells you. If your tired, rest. If you feel like you have energy, use it. Lately I have been feeling like I needed an extra boost that exercise and eating decent wasn't getting me. We are not specialist in this field so we are going in this blind other than the research we have done and talking to the people who have juiced. We know what to expect but the experience is completely different for each person. So it will be a interesting journey to say the least.

So your probably wondering how DAY 1 went. Well, let me start off with the menu of the day:

Breakfast & Lunch: I made something that I will call 1,2,3 GO for breakfast and lunch consisted of 1 apples, 2 carrots and 3 beets. Personally there was to many beets in it so I watered it down with water which helped a little. Next time I will have to try: 1 apple, 2 beets and 3 carrots. 
Snack: I juiced 2 apples and 3 carrots. That juice was AMAZING. 
Dinner: I had what I will call a juice salad. It was 1 head of romaine lettuce, 1 tomato, 1 bell pepper, 1 carrot, 1 stock of celery, a handful of pecans. This looked, smelled and kinda tasted like a bell pepper rolled around in grass. Hahah I bet you just got a crazy visual because I did.


Throughout the whole day: I drank water and green tea or hot lemon water . 

The beets made Christmas festive for a moment....
So how do I feel and what happened to my body? My energy was a roller coaster to say the least. I was low for most of the day until mid afternoon/night hit and I felt like I have amazing energy. One thing that I do have to warn about though is if your body is not used to fruits or vegetables your body will go into an OVERDOSE. It happened to me today with the beets. My body took in more than what its used to. Lets just say I peed (yes my pee was pink), threw up and pooped beets all at once. Not a pretty sight but I am being 100% honest with my journey with juicing. I also noticed my pores all over my body seemed more open than usual and a film felt like it was on my skin. This was totally out of the normal. A shower fixed that right up. I brushed my teeth more than normal today. The juicing causes bad breath and a dry mouth. Your body is getting rid of all the toxins from EVERYWHERE literally. So please, please, please be hygienic if you do decide to do the juicing.  I am not starving but the hunger is there. I think its more of a physiological thing. It is really hard to smell amazing food and the worst part is having someone in front of you eating it. Its hard but the pay off I am praying will work. Stay tuned for updates on the juicing.

Day 3

To contact us Click HERE
Hello all! Im still alive and kickin!! The third day is almost done with only one last juice of the night. The juicing is a trying cleanse. It has its ups and downs and weird feelings and its just plain different from anything else I have ever done before. It is hard to explain (I will try my hardest) and each person's experiences are different. I have to give my husband mad props right now because he is trying to quit nicotine and doing this diet as well. I can tell his withdrawals with food and nicotine is way worse then what I am going through. That is what keeps me going. If he can do it so can I. I am glad he is saying he's DONE and its time to be healthy. I'm a proud wife right now can you tell?! Heheh. Well, anyway enough mushy stuff here's MY pros and cons:

The pros:

  •  Energy: Yes, it can be a hit or miss but I would say 80% of the day I have energy and it's a different energy than usual.  (considering that I havent had coffee or any caffeine in 3 days I am doing great I think). Again, this is a hit or miss but I would say 80% of the day I have energy.
  • Weight loss: In two days I lost 7 pounds! And an inch of my belly. Honestly, I just think it was water weight and nothing more so we shall see how much more will come off. I already set a goal weight in mind and if this diet takes me past that point I am done. Nothing like being a skeleton because THAT is not attractive at all! Remember its about health and cleansing the body and not about trying to be super model anorexic.
  • Taste's buds and sense of smell are heightened: This can be a pro or con I suppose but its just crazy how well you can smell everything around you from perfumes, to peoples body odors, to food OF COURSE. As far as tastes go its a lot easier to pin point what is in your food. My husband can almost guess whats in the juices I make which is coming from a smoker who stopped 2 days ago!  
  • Toxins: My body is getting rid of them and with every day I feel better and healthier.
The cons:
  • Juice: Some not ALL the juices taste pretty gross. It makes the mind second guess if you REALLY want to do this for another 12 days. I highly suggest if you do juice to add some fruit to every juice you do. Keep a 70% veggie to 30% fruit ratio in mind. However, in the mornings we usually do 50% 50% just to give us a boost of energy. 
  • The shakes/headaches: Sometimes you get the feeling your body is shaking (although its not) and slight headaches. This is just your body saying hey listen I need more calories, Im getting weak, so feed me and also a sign of withdrawals. Yet again listen to your body.
  • Body aches: When I sleep at night for some reason I will fall asleep one way and wake up about an hour later with my body completely achey so I have to change positions and of course that equals to loss of sleep. 
  • Lack of working out: No more cardio for me just weights, yoga, full body strengtheners and stretching. I miss my cardio!
  • HUNGER: Yes, you feel like your hungry but you're not starving. Just make sure to drink plenty of water or herbal teas throughout the day and you will be fine. 

The pros and cons are almost even but as of right now knowing that my body is detoxing and getting rid of all that bad stuff is the biggest thing that is keeping me wanting to continue. This cleanse takes a lot of hard work and discipline. I am so used to eating the leftovers of food from my daughter's plates or munching on random things through the day or while I cook. The smell of food makes your mouth water like no other. You may be wondering what I am craving right now. Weirdly I'm not. Throughout the day I chew on sugar-free gum. I know its probably not part of the diet but I want to make sure those muscles stay strong from when the diet is over. I am wanting to eat and not be on a liquid diet for ever hahah. 
One thing I just recently read is while juicing you need to have an herbal laxative.  Your body may not be able to process the food (since your'e not eating solid food) to cleanse your colon out. If you don't the toxins will sit in your intestines and slowly leak back into your blood stream making your blood and body toxic yet again. So be prepared for that. 
Looking into the future: My husband and I talked about after the cleanse what we are to do with eating. We have done tons of research and watched plenty of documentaries to know that the majority of food that is in the supermarkets are way over processed and cheaply made. So after this diet it's going to be clean eating, and being educated about the food that our family ingests. We do not want to be made into the majority of people who are having horrible health problems at a younger age each decade. Did you know that 1 in 3 kids will have a form of diabetes before they become adults?!! Im sorry but that is just sad news. That was not the case 20-50 years ago. Its time for a change. Im telling you the more you research the more you learn the more you want to change. If more an more people demand healthy food the prices of those foods will drop a lot. Its all a part of supply and demand. Thanks for reading. Please feel free to ask me questions.

My daughter's actual valentine's gifts 
I love bear hugs and so does my daughter. This year we decided together that the above link was appropriate for this valentine's exchange for her class. I tried to keep the whole idea of what the link did but I did feel that Gummi Bears and Teddy Grahams were to much "bear" and not enough "hugs" so I kept the Teddy Grahams and ditched the Gummi Bears (sorry hope no hard feelings lil bears) So what did this mama do? I threw in some hershey hugs. So there you got it you have "BEAR HUGS". I am actually really happy with how it came out. I don't think the picture to the right does it justice. And your probably wondering how does a coffee mug fit into the equation of bear hugs. That is for her teacher. It is a coffee mug that has a top on it and I CRAMMED that puppy full of Chocolates. On her label it reads "You're A Sweet Treat". I really like how I coordinated the little treat baggies and the coffee mug. Honestly, that was not on purpose I grabbed these items at two different occasions. Oh well I am totally NOT complaining. So this idea for me deserves a 10 out of 10. Why? Well, what kid is not going to like chocolate and teddy grahams?

This is where I got my idea for my daughter's valentines for her class: http://familyfun.go.com/valentines-day/valentines-day-cards/bear-your-heart-675032/

An interesting gin. I could really leave it at that and do it justice, but It doesn't really tell you about it now does it. This gin is like one of your friends relationships when you're wondering how that happened and they say well it's complicated and leave it at that. As if you're some 6 yr old that won't understand grown up things. Although the description will fit I'm not about to treat you that way. Hendrick's Gin doesn't think you should be treated that way either and they're pleased to tell you all about this gin of theirs and why it's different. The website is rather amusing and looks like a Terry Gilliam segment of Monty Python's Flying Circus. Hendrick's is a Scottish gin. Hell you say? No Really it is. It's a pleasant, smooth gin that's not too juniper and has an interesting aftertaste. I came to learn while drinking Hendrick's that my tongue associates cucumbers with salt. That's the big difference, a very slight taste of cool cucumbers. I kept thinking it was a salty flavor, but there's no salt in it. Hence my discovery. It's not cucumber infused and doesn't taste like cucumbers, it's very slight and you might miss it. If you make it in a gin and tonic with a cucumber slice it becomes more prevalent. It and the rose petal aroma are very, very, ethereal. You only notice them like a ghost walked into the room. What was that! A strange encounter. You will not mistake this for something else. It's flavor is Gin. Juniper and Botanicals. If you like Tanq 10 or Bombay Sapphire this is worth a try. A light almost refreshing gin that has become my top shelf favorite.
