K.I.S.S. = Keep it simple stupid Sure, I get it. Stupid isn't a nice word. But, it gets the point across right? I use this acronym a lot. There are SO many things in life that I think we as humans really try to over-complicate. We over analyze. We over research. We think the crap out of everything. It makes things more difficult I think. Back when things were simple, and there wasn't as many choices .... life just seemed easier am I right? Well, today I bring you the issue of "What to make for lunch after church on Sunday" - Yes, it's an issue. If I don't have things ready, my kids can't fend for themselves. I must have staples like bread, and peanut butter. These kids expect so much from me! (joking). This works well, if we remembered to make sandwich bread! #realmomlife This brings us to this past Sunday....after church. NOTHING to eat. No bread was made. The kids had NO idea what to make themselves! What is a tired, and busy mom to do? I mean......

Bad Mom's. If you don't know about this movie, find the trailer . The movie is a little raunchy at points, but it is so stellar on hitting the points that most of us mom's feel on a regular basis. That feeling of not measuring up to the seemingly perfect moms. Let me tell you friends..... it's all about perspective. I've recently come across many posts on facebook discussing this topic. The mom posting is usually saying something along the lines of ".... those perfect moms, volunteering, perfect house, perfect kids, kids in every sport/music/activity, homeschooling, church volunteering, cookie baking..... etc, etc, etc... .and I just don't measure up/I'm not doing good enough/I suck" We put so much pressure on ourselves as mom's. But seriously...... WHY?!?!?! What is important in motherhood? In our house it's raising good kids, that love Jesus, that are kind, self sufficient, driven, with a love of learning. Who cares if the dish......
Tamales. When I think about tamales, I think about huge full kitchen, full of assembly line women working together to make hundreds of tamales. It takes HOURS and hours! Sure you get to take home some amazing tamales, but it takes so long! Well..... Not anymore!!! I had seen somewhere like the day after I got my Instant pot ..... that you could make tamales! Say what?!?! I didn't need 200, I only have a family of 4 and didn't want to store any. I just wanted a few for dinner! So, I had to try this out! The recipes I found were all so difficult, and I'm a simple girl! SO... this is what I did. I got my organic masa out (I always buy my corn products organic, they are one of the heaviest pesticide/herbicide sprayed crops! yuck!) and sort of followed the instructions on the back of the bag to make my dough. Yes, I said "sort of" - I don't like following rules. So it called for vegetable broth, I used organic beef broth ..... I did a heavier hand......
Have you heard about this amazing magic thing? The Instant Pot?!? This thing is Changing my life! I only got it like 3 days ago, and I've seriously cooked SO MUCH in it already! Today's magical concoction was a super hit! You know how we've all heard how much better for you steel cut oats are.... yadda yadda... But those things take SOOO long to cook! Even with the quick cooking ones I have it takes over 10 minutes of "simmering"! Also, say goodbye to those amazing little things called " Overnight Oats " if you switch from old fashioned rolled oats to steel cut! Those things are amazing you all, seriously everyone picks their own and they are DONE overnight! Since we chose to forgo buying a microwave in our new house, those too have gone out the window because of the whole heating up part, but that isn't the point..... back to the pot. This thing makes the magic of "make your own oats" possible again, with the healthy steel cut ......
I don't! There. I said it. I don't love fitness! I struggle to workout some days. It's hard. BUT, I know how amazing it is for my mental health, and my body! I need it. But, that doesn't mean I love it! LOL One of the ways I like to keep things interesting and fun, is to switch it up! I try to do this often! I have what you could easily call workout A.D.D. I jump around programs/workouts a lot. Unless I'm 100% committed to a program, I like to try out new things! Well, today there was an amazing sneak peek on my BOD streaming workout service of the new Core de Force workout being released next month! Something you may not know about me... I used to totally be into martial arts. I even tested for my brown belt when I was 6 months pregnant with my now 11 year old daughter. I could even still kick above my belt! Well, I tried out this new workout today... and I can say it was SUPER fun! Try to mix up your workouts and keep things fresh and fun. That is the......
