April Favorites

Long time no see. I've been busy with school, and I've honestly forgotten to post for a couple weeks because I was thinking of other tasks. Oops. At least I remembered this week. But for reals my posting schedule may be a little weird until summer break, just because there's a lot going on with school and all that. But anyways time to get into this. 

1)Going to the strawberry farm
Since it's strawberry season, that means it's time to go get a nice batch of juicy strawberry's from Hunt's strawberry farm. Me and my mom go to Hunt's strawberry farm every weekend and pick strawberries. Guys I gotta tell you, once you go pick your own strawberries, you will never buy store bought strawberries again. Hunt's strawberries taste almost 100% more better than store bought strawberries. Not trying to bash on store bought strawberries too much, but they don't even really taste like anything. Organic, farm grown, fresh strawberries that you can pick yourself are the way to go. 

2)Jane Filer's art show
I don't know if any of my viewers/audience know who Jane Filer is, but she is basically a really good artist who doesn't paint like anyone else, and has her own style of art. Her paintings also sell for a lot because they are amazing, and very unique. So my family really likes Jane Filer's art, and she was having an art show, so we went a couple of weekends ago, and the whole show was so good. In this photo I am standing in front of my favorite painting from the whole show. I really like the three creatures at the bottom. I really have an appreciation for Jane Filer's work because her paintings have so much detail, and they are museum worthy. If you guys haven't checked out Jane Filer yet, I would do that because her work is so good, and I really enjoyed her art show.

  
3)My friend, Sarah's birthday party sleepover/campout
So my friend Sarah turned 16 and she had a birthday party, and my whole squad managed to keep me up till 2 am, so kinda crazy because you'll catch me in bed by 8. So at her birthday party everyone brought tents, and we camped out in her backyard, or at least we tried. And it was really fun because we did water balloons, watched grease, and just hung-out. The whole squad tried camping out, but at 2 in the morning we went back into the house because it was uncomfortable because we didn't have an air mattress, and we also didn't have enough blankets. We also kept hearing these weird banging sounds, it was almost like someone was hitting something up against a tree, but we don't know. But anyways it was really fun.

4)Spring Break
Spring break was so relaxing, and I just hung around the house and watched Jerry Springer, Fix it Upper, and House Hunters. I also hung out with gabs too. It felt so good to have a break, I wish It could be spring or summer break right now. Preferably summer break. I'm so overwhelmed with school right now to be honest. I spent my entire Friday and Saturday doing work, because I want my lazy Sunday. I'm glad I did that because today was nice.

5)Easter
Easter was fun, we didn't really do anything special except eat good food. There is a photo of flowers as the picture because we didn't take any Easter photos. Easter was just like Thanksgiving because we had the same meal for both holidays. Literally the meal tastes so good, it includes turkey, and mashed potatoes. And it's like you gotta dump the whole thing of gravy on it otherwise that ruins it. But yeah Easter deserves to be put on here because it's one of the best meals ever!!!

March Favorites

1)Eating more "vegetarian/vegan"
I've been trying to be vegetarian and a little vegan, but I'm not fully committed to it or anything. I'm really enjoying it, and I've been eating lots of fruit and it's just so good. It just feels so good to know that I'm not supporting animal cruelty. Like yeah I'll still eat some chicken and all that every now and then, but I'm just eating meat and dairy less. I noticed that everything has become easier to digest, I feel more lightweight, and I have more energy. Also guys, get excited because I want to put some vegan food recipes on my blog that are really good.

2)My planner
I love my planner!! It helps me organize all my school assignments, and I can write down what I need to do for the day. All I have to do is check my planner and then boom I know what I have to do. I like how it has a day planner and a calendar, that way I can keep up with daily and monthly things.

3)Protein shakes
Protein shakes are awesome, they are very good meal replacements and whenever I make my protein shakes, I put tons of peanut butter in it to make it taste so good. Protein shakes are very easy to make too all you gotta do is put some protein powder in a smoothie blender thing, add peanut butter, and milk and then blend. And your good to go.

4)Chilling outside on the back porch
It's been getting warmer here in North Carolina, and that means spending more time outside. I set up my little hangout spot on the back porch, I just put some cushions on the ground, and a couple pillows, and it makes for the perfect outdoor couch. I enjoy being on my laptop, or tanning out there. Being outside makes me feel stress-free too, which is great when I got lots of schoolwork.

5)Coconut omega 3 stuff
Oh my god guys this is my obsession. So there is this liquidy omega 3 stuff that I eat a spoonful of everyday, and it's so good. I'm so surprised that there is no sugar in it at all, because it tastes so sweet. You can get it at spouts market by the way.
