Hi. Hello. Look at this--I'm here! I know, you thought you'd never hear from me again. Well, tricked ya. I really, really miss the good old days of blogging. I miss wanting to share things with you. I miss doing all the baking my heart desires. I even miss spending time writing up blog posts, though let's be honest, I think that's probably all bloggers' least favorite part of this gig. Times change. I just can't seem to get things done like I used to be able to do. I'm fine. I'm healthy. I'm busy. I'm tired. Even with this crazy time of the COVID-19 worldwide pandemic and being home more, I seem to be just as busy with boys and dogs (We have 3 now! Chip and Candy are both coming up on ten years old, so we adopted Trixie last November. She's now 7 months old--what was I thinking being a puppy mom again? She's a Corgi/Pomeranian mix). I keep finding other things to do besides baking and sharing. It's sad, I know.
That said, my friend Shelby from Grumpy's Honeybunch has a cookbook out! The One Pot Paleo Cookbook is available from Amazon now (linked here). Check it out. Everything looks and sounds so delicious. I love that they are simple one pot meals and could use a sheet pan in the oven, a skillet on the stove or a slow cooker! I was excited to hurry and try a recipe but am limited on trips to the store right now (as we all are) so I quickly looked for something I could make with ingredients I already have and settled on this Banana Noatmeal. Afterall, breakfast is probably my favorite meal of the day and guess what I eat almot every day? Oatmeal, with banana to be exact. I've actually wanted to try a Paleo version for a few years now so this was just perfect! If you're eating a Paleo diet (or even if you're not!) this is great as it is low-carb since it doesn't actually have oats. Hence the clever name of noatmeal. But I can't believe how much it literally tastes like oats. I prefer for my oatmeal with used the quick cooking kind (gluten free, please), so this has the same texture. The main ingredient is almond meal. Then it also has some flaxseeds (I used ground meal), some hemp seeds and chia seeds (the recipe says white chia seeds, I only had black). Everything is simmered with coconut or almond milk, then served with bananas, walnuts, a drizzle of maple syrup and a dusting of cinnamon.
This is my ideal breakfast! Excited to try it with berries when I can go shopping and get some!
Go get Shelby's cookbook! Whether you follow a Paleo diet or not, it's got lots of great recipes! Can't wait to try more!
On a family note, my "baby" turned 13 (ahhh!) in March. We all went to dinner as a family, including my married son, Scott and his wife Diana and our son Parker who turned 18 and moved into his own apartment. We went out the day before our state decided on a stay home, stay safe initiative and closed dining-in at restaurants. For Easter yesterday, we had everybody over for grilling some hot dogs and hamburgers outside. Scott, Diana and Parker stayed out of the house and tried to maintain the 6 feet rule from us. Sam enjoyed hiding some Easter eggs outside for them to hunt. It was fun watching grown kids collecting eggs. We had some much-needed laughs together. We look forward to this pandemic being over and life being more normal again. How are y'all getting along? We are truly blessed! I was even able to go get my monthly infusion for MS last week. Had to wear a mask and that is hard for me. I named it being like "walking claustrophobia". But I survived and I'm grateful my infusion center is still operating and they are taking a lot more sanitizing precautions and spacing everyone out more than normal. I'm kind of hoping when we get to go back to things being more like they were before this virus came along, that the world learns to be more giving and kind and loving as it's been during this time. What good things have you noticed in the world lately?

I can't believe your baby is a teenager! Thank you so much for testing out my cookbook. I love that Noatmeal and it doesn't taste any different with black chia. I just used the white chia for "looks" lol. Thanks again Katrina!! XO

When damar hamlin jacket super bowl 2023 walked into the Super Bowl in his Takashi Murakami-designed jacket, he probably didn’t expect it to become one of the most talked-about fashion moments of the event. The jacket, which cost over $3,000, had a depiction of a crucifix with cartoonish features and the word "Eternal" on it. While some saw it as a bold artistic expression, others, like Adrian Peterson, thought it crossed a line. After the criticism, Hamlin explained on social media that the piece was a way for him to express his eternal gratitude for surviving his medical emergency. This situation raises important questions about how personal beliefs and public perception can clash when symbolism is used in high-profile settings.
