Favorite Things: Vol. XXXI

Favorite Things· Life

Happy Friday! I hope you all have had a great week! My week has been busy, it started off with a new project I have been working on with Sarah from The Carolina Wanderer. We started a YouTube channel and recorded our first video together on Monday. We cooked a very weird recipe (a deep fried BBQ chicken quesadilla pizza????) from Twisted, and it turned out to be an absolute disaster. In my personal opinion, the video turned out VERY funny, so go check it out, and subscribe to our channel while you’re there!

Here’s a better look at our end product 😂 It definitely was not something I recommend anyone trying or attempting to make, but we still had a lot of fun and laughs in our attempt!

Apparently this a very food themed Favorite Things post because that is what most of this post revolves around!

Have y’all tried the new Chick-fil-A mac and cheese?! I was very pleasantly surprised with how good it is! I was worried it was going to taste like generic Velveeta mac and cheese, but it is like home style baked mac and cheese which is the bomb. If you haven’t tried it yet, I can almost guarantee that you will love it.

If you follow me on Instagram and saw my stories, then you’ve already heard this story, but I tried the Israeli Hot Chicken Sandwich from Yafo kitchen this week. It is very good, and I highly recommend it, but be warned that it is HOT. I have a pretty high tolerance to spicy food (fun fact: I’ve completed the Buffalo Wild Wings hot wing eating contest twice), so normally when people tell me something is spicy, I take it with a grain of salt. But this truly has a kick!

I took the biggest first bite humanely possible, and literally had to hold back my watering eyes. Even the bus boy came by to make sure I was ok HAHA

In summary:

And of course, last but not least, what would a Favorite Things post be without a peek of my letter board for the week?

Have a great weekend!

I’m not clear on the status of raw berries rn so I I’m not clear on the status of raw berries rn so I guess let’s cook some raspberries up and make some raspberry-fudge pudding popsicles with a secret healthy ingredient 🤫🥑🤷‍♀️

RASPBERRY FUDGE POPSICLES 🥑🍫
Raspberry Part:
-~6 oz of fresh/frozen raspberries
-2 tbsp of sugar (I used coconut sugar)
•add raspberries and sugar to a saucepan over medium heat. Cook and let boil for about 5-7 minutes, stirring often to get a jammy consistency

Chocolate Part
1 avocado
1/2 cup milk
2-3 tbsp cocoa powder (depending on how chocolatey you want it!)
Splash of vanilla
Pinch of salt
Maple syrup to taste
•add all to a blender and blend until smooth

•layer chocolate and raspberry portions in a popsicle mold. You can use a toothpick or wooden skewer to swirl the layer a bit before adding sticks and freezing for at least 6 hours
•you may need to run warm water outside of your molds to help remove the popsicles when you’re ready to enjoy ❤️

This makes 6 popsicles with the molds I have but it may vary depending on the size you are using. You also may have leftover raspberry sauce!! It’s really good on Greek yogurt for a parfait or on ice cream 😉 #healthydessert #kidrecipes #toddlermom #easyrecipe

Should I fear a squirrel retaliation? 🐿️🫣 I shared Should I fear a squirrel retaliation? 🐿️🫣
I shared the picture of all of the peanuts in my car on my stories and it gave so many people a laugh, so I figured I would share the quick story time about getting my oil changed 🙃 #storytime
I scored this free water feature on Facebook marke I scored this free water feature on Facebook marketplace with hopes to make a mini wildlife pond in my garden to attract frogs, toads, and any other creatures in our yard! 🐸🐦‍⬛🦌
After I dug a big hole (no easy feat in this heat and with all this NC red clay), I buried the water feature so that it was level with the ground. I added some water plants native to my area: blue eyed grass and pickerel weed and also added some rocks so that animals could get in and out if needed. Once I filled it with water, I also added a solar fountain and mosquito dunks to keep those suckers away 🙃

To my toddler’s excitement, within a day, we already had frog visitors! Now I just need to decide what to plant around it 🤔🌼🪻 #garden #toddlermom #backyardwildlife
some nights I put my toddler to bed and I’m like “ some nights I put my toddler to bed and I’m like “yeah tonight’s all about me”— this was one of those nights!

Thanks so much to @sassysaints for gifting me with their gel nail wraps! This color is Sugar Glaze and you can use code SARAANN10 to save some $$$!
