November Giveaway: We’re Giving Away A Vitamix!

Happy November, Peeps! Can you believe that it’s already November? I can’t. Have you started to plan your Thanksgiving menu yet? Oh, should we not talk about that yet? Are we in turkey denial still? Got it.  Too soon. Alright. Let’s just let that one lie there for a while. Instead, let’s focus on this awesome giveaway. Ahhh, all better.

This month I have teamed up with ten other bloggers in order to giveaway this AWESOME prize! We’re giving away this Vitamix Turboblend 4500 Countertop Blender with 2+ HP Motor. This thing is crazy powerful. Have you ever tried to make nut butter in your normal blender and had it overheat and die on you? Yeah, that’s not going to happen here. It’s one heck of a powerful blending machine. I have an older model (yes, I’m totally going to be jealous of the winner–no bigs), and I use it almost every day on everything from green smoothies to nut butters to mixing up muffin batter. It’s earned it’s place as a permanent resident on my counter top. You can check out it’s stats HERE.
Enter to win your own Vitamix by following these easy steps! […]

My Love Letter To YOU + Ginger Fizz Birthday Cheers!

Okay, Okay. I know you’re probably super tired of Birthday Week by now. It’s been an entire week of celebration. That’s a lot. Are you nursing a donut hangover? Yeah, me too. Or maybe it was that plate of ice cream sandwiches? Biscuits? Er…pudding? Who knows… it’s cool… let’s just throw a champagne cocktail on top of that. CELEBRATE GOOD TIMES, C-MON!! No regrets. Alright, so it’s almost over. Just bear with me. I have one more post for you. I feel like it’s only fitting I send off our first birthday with a full on love letter to YOU. It might get a little mushy… but, we’ll get through it. Afterwards we can get drunk. We’re going to mix champagne and bourbon together. What could go wrong? Don’t answer that question.  Okay, here we go… […]

Joy’s Baked Brown Butter Donuts With Chocolate Glaze {Gluten-Free}

Alright, folks! Birthday week is still in full swing. Here we are on Friday, and we’ve been going strong since Monday. It’s definitely more of a marathon than a sprint, no? 26.2 miles of biscuits, pudding, ice cream and donuts. I’m into it. We can chest bump at the finish line if you want. Or, considering that we just ate 26.2 miles worth of baked goods and pudding we might want to rethink this. Perhaps we shouldn’t bump our bodies together. Perhaps we should just exchange knowing glances, high five and then go pass out in a sugary-carb-coma. That sounds more realistic. Go team! Who wants to make T-shirts? I’ll send out a sign up sheet.  […]

It’s still Birthday Week, and I’m still totally slingin’ dessert down your throat. Yesterday was ice cream sandwiches, today it’s pudding.

I know what you’re thinking. I can read your face…

You’re thinking that if you make this here pudding and pair it with a side of kale chips, plus some bourbon on the rocks then you’ve got yourself dinner! Funny, I thought the EXACT same thing.  I’m here to tell that you’re correct. Yes. That is a fine pairing. You’re a smart cookie. I like your style. Do you have some vegan friends? I’m pretty sure if you show up at their door with a bowl of this creamy chocolate pudding, A LOT of kale chips and a jug o’ bourbon then you’ve got yourself a vegan potluck. Yer welcome. Heck, I’m a total omnivore and I would not turn you away. Come on over. Let’s get that pudding party started. I’ll get two spoons. […]
