because mexican food can be elevated, and it can also be street food. it has so many faces and flavors that not only one version of your abuelitas cocina is true, from north to south, there is so much richness and variety that is hard for one single mexican to even know the complexity and the full variety of it. Every corner of mexico is capable of its own version of mole, barbacoa, or tacos and its so beautiful to experience all of it without judgement and with openness to appreciate. this post is to showcase some of the modern mexican concept restaurants that I am so happy to see thrive in a place like Denver. That for sooo many years you could not find a vast or true representation of all that is Mexican cuisine can be. I am also a fan of the aesthetics and the experience bc I am also *just a girl* so these are honestly a fave for date nights, girls night, or a celebratory dinner spot.

It's almost Halloween again. Time to stock up early on treats before they run out or raise the prices for candy again. You can never have too much candy for Halloween, believe me. Every year the kids start earlier and earlier and we have to rush and restock
I love to bake all year round BUT in the colder weather baking happens way more often. Between all the holidays and a constant sweet tooth, it seems like the oven never catches a break!

So this list is near and dear to my heart as my youngest has a bunch of food allergies and my oldest has had some health issues that required her to cut out refined sugar completely.

I have been (mostly) gluten-free for nearly 4 years now. I am not celiac; however, I definitely have a gluten intolerance of some sort. I am able to make my own bread from scratch with minimal gut issues, which has allowed me to still remember what good bread tastes like. Because of this loophole, I think it makes me qualified to know what a good gluten-free product tastes like, and if it is truly comparable to the real thing. Also, I live in the middle of nowhere, where gluten-free items can be difficult to find. So anywayyyy there's my backstory and credentials- now here are some of my favorites that I have found at my local Target and Walmart!
Your go-to guide for vegan and plant-based finds available at Walmart! This list showcases a large variety of accidentally-vegan products, completely free of animal-derived ingredients. 🌱💚
