Friday Finds!

New Year New You?

I don't know but I do know these are a few finds that have been helping me reach my goals for this year!

  • Five Minute Journal - Can you change your life with just five minutes a day? Sure! This nifty little journal prompts you to show gratitude, reflect on how the day can be great and how it could've been better, etc. It also features positive quotes at the beginning of each day and encourages you to commit to using it consistently. It has been a great help for me dealing with anxiety and really thinking about how I live each day. I definitely recommend this journal! You can find it here: https://www.intelligentchange.com/
  • Sunday Scaries Gummies - Have you been hearing about CBD? Um, who hasn't?? CBD is a non-psychoactive substance derived from hemp oil that is shown to have many benefits including digestion, anxiety relief, pain relief, etc. Sunday Scaries harnesses the power of CBD in fun gummy form. I just recently got a small bottle and I'm excited to see how they help me fight off the everyday scaries! Their products use full spectrum CBD with no THC and they have lab results on their website. They also have a vegan version! Check them out here: https://forsundayscaries.com/
  • EU Naturals Serenity - EU Naturals is a supplement line to empower your health with 100% natural ingredients. They have a wide range of supplements to help with digestion, joint pain, nausea, sleep and anxiety, hormonal health, prenatal, etc. They reached out to me to try a product and I chose Serenity which is an stress relief and natural sleep aid. It contains Zinc, Magnesium, Valerian extract, L-theanine, melatonin and other natural substances to help you sleep. I have found it to help me fall asleep and getting more/better sleep is one of my priorities this year! Check out their broad range of science backed, natural supplements here: https://store.eunatural.com/

    I'm truly enjoying the design and layout mega888 test account of your blog. It's a very easy on the eyes which makes it much more pleasant for me to come here and visit more often. Did you hire out a designer to create your theme? Superb work!

Gut Healthy Gummy Bears! Keto Friendly

Image
Team Sour or Team Sweet? I'm team sour all the way! These gummies are surprisingly easy to make if you have a gummy bear mold (they're very inexpensive on amazon!) and they have the gut-health benefits of prebiotic fiber and gelatin! First they're sour, then they're sweet. Ingredients: 40g VitaFiber IMO syrup  1 tbsp gelatin liquid stevia to taste (I used orange stevia) 1/2 cup water Directions: Heat the mixture on the stove until bubbling.  Use the dropper to fill the gummy bear molds.  Place in fridge until set.  Just before eating, toss the gummy bears in a mixture of citric acid powder, and granulated sweetener of choice (I used a monk fruit/erythritol blend).  Voila! Sour gummies!

Keto Meringues! Sugar Free!

Image
I recently had the idea to make Meringue cookies and my curiosity was piqued at the idea of making sugar free meringue cookies. I wondered if it would work!  3 calories a piece?! I'll take 10!  I took to Google, and to my surprise there were recipes with Splenda, erythritol, stevia and beyond! I decided to try my hand at sugar free meringues with an erythritol based sweetener I just purchased recently. The brand is Swerve and I purchased it from Luckyvitamin.com. It claims to have no aftertaste! Meringues can be a bit tricky to set up due to humidity and given that it was a hot August day in North Carolina, I think they turned out pretty well! The texture was good on most of them but a few of them were still a bit soft in the middle.  Factors working against me: I didn't have enough egg whites I didn't have cream of tartar I was attempting sugar free I didn't have parchment paper Humidity You may be thinking, why even bother? Well, I don...
