Happy March!
I am a little shocked it’s the first Friday of March already, but I am so exited spring is right around the corner!
This week went by so fast. My husband’s 30th birthday was on Sunday. He had to work, but I made him some fun mint chocolate cupcakes (GF DF). He LOVED them! You can see the final product on Instagram I shared a few days ago 🙂
On Tuesday, I had the opportunity to visit a really neat, old-fashioned bath house in Mineral Wells. I am really excited to share all the neat details with you soon. Not only was there so much chemistry to talk about from this, but so many health benefits too. It was a blast! I haven’t been to Mineral Wells, TX in years. I grew up about an hour away, so we would go occasionally. My absolutely favorite part of this town is the old Bakers Hotel. It is breath taking seeing this old majestic building right in downtown. I am a sucker for old architecture like this. You can read about this hotel here. And stay tuned for a full recap on our mineral baths!
I was trying to vacuum the a few days ago, and Ruger was passed out sleeping, so I decided to wait. He just looked too cute laying there! ♥
These stickers are so adorable! I love these and the one with my logo, I have been using them on everything! You can check out Tuesday’s post for details!
Recently I have been making all kinds of roasted vegetables. My new favorite are these sweet & spicy carrots! These carrots are so delicious on salads, chicken, fish, and even just as a side.
For the Carrots:
Add some carrot sticks to a cast iron skillet, add a little olive oil, salt, pepper, liquid aminos, coconut sugar, and a little cayenne pepper. I had so many questions about liquid aminos last time I talked about it, so you can learn more about that here.
Happy Friday everyone!

Intrigued by the muffins – is there a recipe??
I actually used a GF chocolate cake mix. Then I jazzed it up with some chocolate icing (I just melted some dark chocolate with a touch of coconut oil and a little powdered sugar until it was stiff), then I added some mint extract and a little espresso powder. I share some of that in this post 🙂 They turned out really good! I tried out this mix, and it was pretty good.
sweet and spicy carrots – that sounds really tasty & healthy!! Hope you have a great weekend girl! xo, Biana –BlovedBoston
Omg they are so addicting! I love them! Have a great one too 🙂
Your snapchat was so neat to watch in that town. I am so intrigued to learn more!
It was so fun! I loved getting to explore it 🙂 Can’t wait to share more next week!
Mint chocolate chip cupcakes sound amazing!!
My husband loved them! 🙂
Happy Friday and first weekend of March! How can that be?! I want to try a mineral bath/spa – I will research locales. Oh Ruger, such a cutie. I’m sure he appreciates your not disturbing him (lol). I LOVE sweet and spicy foods, esp veggies! I made something similar this past weekend…mmm …. Have a fab weekend! 🙂
Sweet and spicy is probably my favorite combination of flavors….or sweet and salty. Both are good. Have a great weekend Laurie!
I really need to eat more vegetables, so thanks for sharing how you do your carrots! I find I can’t eat that many raw – I need to cook them or season them somehow. haha
Aw, your dog is so cute!
