As a child I always loved pancake days.

So let’s go on this journey of boxed pancake mixes and make a some delicious memories with the people you love. Fasten your seatbelts and let’s go…..

My go-to pantry staples for a cleaner, healthier lifestyle 🌿 I’m obsessed with reading labels, so everything here has ingredients you can actually pronounce!
Three Diet Cokes a day — that was me for over a decade. Headaches, sugar crashes, spending $40 a month on something I knew was wrecking my teeth. Tried quitting cold turkey twice and lasted maybe four days each time. Turns out the trick wasn't willpower, it was finding sparkling water that actually tasted like something. If you're stuck in the soda cycle and every seltzer you've tried tastes like TV static, this is the lineup that got me off the stuff for good.
As an avid cook and appliances lover, I was looking for low budget and long lasting items to use in university. Many are also ecofriendly for the fellow advocates out there. This is my personal list that I've brought with me, tried and tested by me and other peers. I'm hoping other multicultural cooks out there who care about their nutrition intake, hydration, diet, ecofriendliness, and cooking experience would appreciate this! Remember: yes to stainless steel, maybe to plastic, and no to wood – it's too expensive to maintain!!!

Beyond the obvious of avoiding gluten, celiac made me think more about what I put in my body and what helps my digestive system. But also, it’s important to enjoy what you’re eating without worrying about nutrition all the time!
I love to cook… but only if the meal can be put together in under 45 minutes. If it's going to take me longer than that, it better be done in a slow cooker. These are the recipes I keep in my notes app and come back to again and again when I'm trying to think of what to make for dinner. They've all been made multiple times and are true crowd pleasers!

Coffee is expensive but in my experience making it at home can save so much money. Though to get the same experience you get at a coffee shop you gotta get the same items. So take it from me who was a barista for 3 years. Here is what I use.

Grab any glass jar / cup
Add 2 tablespoons of Nescafé gold espresso
1/2 tablespoon of brown sugar
Add a tiny pit of water & mix
Add Ice
Add milk of choice
Top off with creamer of choice
Mix & enjoy

Morocco is a bucket list destination for its incredible views and winding streets. But after a visit it’s hard to not fall in love with the food! From Berber breakfasts to beautiful tajines, your days are filled with fresh feasts.
A compact coffee corner works best when brewing, weighing, pouring and cleanup have a defined place. These options suit people making one or two cups who want more control without installing a large espresso machine. Choose one brewing method first, then match the grinder, filters and serving pieces to it. This version is for a weekday cup where repeatability and fast cleanup matter more than displaying accessories. It starts with Choose One Brewer, Grind and Weigh, Heat and Pour, and Store and Clean, using concrete options such as Hario V60 Plastic Dripper 02, Timemore Chestnut C2 Grinder, and Hario V60 Buono Kettle to keep the choices practical. The goal is a list that can be browsed in order, with each section answering a different part of the setup.

I don't know about you, but I want to be healthy in a way that still lets me have yummy food. You know what I mean. No tofu, no kale, no beets, nothing that grosses me out! If you like that stuff, you do you. But what you'll find here are a list of snacks I found that aren't bad for you and managed not to taste like cardboard or other horrible stuff. NOTE: I am NOT a dietician. I make a good effort to find things that are healthy but I don't go nuts about numbers, calories, and so on.
Coffee is sometimes a must and stopping by Starbucks every morning is sometimes just not practical. Also, sometimes you just want the convenience of a great cup of coffee at home.

Every Sunday night I'd swear I'd wake up early enough to make breakfast — every Monday morning I'd grab a granola bar and sprint to my car. If you're tired of spending $8 on sad drive-thru eggs because you never have anything ready, this is the container lineup that finally made weekly breakfast prep stick. Took me a year of soggy oatmeal and leaky bags to land on these.
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!
