It's been awhile...

Many of you who read this are my friends on Facebook. So you found out yesterday that I'm pregnant. We are so excited and feel extremely blessed.

At the same time this pregnancy has come with the dreaded morning sickness. Apparently I was spoiled with my last pregnancy.  As you can imagine, the thought of experimenting with food has not gone over well. My poor husband as eaten a lot of Bagel Bites recently...so sad. Haha. :)

To avoid the subject of food, I will tell you about what we started watching on Netflix. We just discovered Fringe.

I will admit my childhood crush on Joshua Jackson as "Charlie" from Mighty Ducks. I thought he was soooo cute...hehe. I always thought the Mighty Duck series were the best movies.  In my opinion he isn't the most amazing actor ever, but I like him in Fringe. The relationship between his character and his father is very funny and endearing.

The father, Walter Bishop is played by John Noble. He is an incredible actor. The main female character is Olivia Dunham, played by Anna Torv. I had never seen her in anything before. She's good.

The show can be so intense and grotesque, but so good at the same time.  Netflix has all the seasons on their website. Check it out.

Hopefully someday I'll be able to handle food again. Thanks for reading. :)

A Cookie

I looked up on Pinterest "chocolate chip cookies made with honey."  I found this great recipe. I just made them and they look beautiful.

I did not add raisins, but I am sure they would be good as well.  I also used cinnamon instead of pumpkin pie seasoning...that didn't sound too great to me at the time.

These cookies are not completely free of processed sugar because of the chocolate chips. I used semi-sweet.  All of the other ingredients contained no processed product. Yay! I'm trying... :)

Also with this whole not eating a lot of processed sugar I saw a difference in my face. I was struggling with a lot of break outs...can be really irritating for a 27 year old. Stopped eating so much sugar and my face stopped freaking out. Now I had heard this before but chose to ignore it...go me.

 So now I can say, yes it is totally true! I know this because over the weekend I went down crazy road and ate a lot of sugar. Immediately my face broke out. So if you struggle with this I hope you are encouraged.

Note: Honey is a good replacement for sugar, but it is still high in calories. FYI. :)

Have a great evening!
