💖Speaking my mind respectfully- even when it’s unc 💖Speaking my mind respectfully- even when it’s uncomfortable. 💖Prioritizing my health and wellness- blood sugar, exercise, nourishing meals and self-care first. 💖Putting my family first- my 4YO’s emotional safety and my husband’s well-being. 💖Saying no to things that drain me- social events, commitments or even toxic habits. 💖Choosing sobriety or being sober curious–experiencing life fully without relying on alcohol. 💖Boundaries with extended family– protecting our small family unit without guilt. 💖Taking time for myself– my morning rituals, infrared sauna and my exercise routine. 💖Being ambitious and chasing big dreams- my dream of writing a cookbook, content creation and personal brand goals. 💖Letting go of things that no longer serve me- my old hustle culture, not prioritizing my health or limiting beliefs. 💖Investing in myself financially and mentally- non invasive treatments, high-quality skincare or experiences that make me stronger. 💖Prioritizing sleep and recovery- even when everyone else is going, going, going. 💖Saying no to gluten or foods that make me feel off- without excuses. 💖Celebrating my wins – big or small, without downplaying them. 💖Feeling all my feelings- sadness, grief, joy, discomfort or excitement without holding back. 💖Choosing peace over people-pleasing- walking away from drama or negativity. 💖Protecting my energy– muting, unfollowing, or removing distractions without guilt. What are things you stopped apologizing for?🧘‍♀️

🔥 Your pan isn’t hot enough. If food goes in and d 🔥 Your pan isn’t hot enough. If food goes in and doesn’t immediately sizzle, you’re steaming- not searing. 🥬 Overcooking vegetables is why people think they hate vegetables. 🍲Let your meal prep cool down completely before adding them to containers and covering- your food will stay fresher, crisp and more vibrant for much longer. 🫐If you keep buying berries in January and wonder why they suck, it’s because they are out of season. Buy citrus, apples and pears instead. 🧼Your kitchen ends in chaos after cooking dinner because you 1. Aren’t pre-chopping and measuring ingredients 2. aren’t reading through the recipe before you start cooking. It’s called mise en place, (everything in its place) and it will make you a more efficient cook. 🧊 Flash-frozen can many times be fresher than “fresh.” Especially regarding seafood, IMO. 🧂Season in layers, not just at the end.
If you only salt at the end, the flavor sits on the food instead of in it. 🧈 Butter burns. Stop cooking everything in butter alone. Use oil to cook, butter to finish. (Except in quick things like eggs) 🍗 Chicken thighs > chicken breasts for flavor and forgiveness. 🔪A dull knife is more dangerous than a sharp one. And yes- it’s slowing you down more than you think… 🧂 If your food tastes flat, it’s usually missing acid, not more salt. Lemon zest, good quality vinegar or something pickled- try that first. 🫶🏻Cooking doesn’t have to be perfect to be nourishing. Progress > performance. Are we wanting a Part 4? Or themes based on cuisine or holidays?🫶🏻
