Oh boy, am I excited to share this recipe with you Oh boy, am I excited to share this recipe with you all! Carrot cake is my absolute favorite sweet treat, and I’ve incorporated my love of sourdough too. 

Introducing sourdough carrot cake: a simple, from scratch recipe. 

We are using sourdough discard to give this carrot cake a little extra oomph, adding flavor and beautiful texture.

What are your favorite sustainable swaps? Our big What are your favorite sustainable swaps?

Our biggest sustainable swap success was making the switch from paper towels to reusable cloths. We also make as much from scratch (food and skincare) as we can to help reduce the amount of packaging we take in. 

It’s also important to think of other uses for things ... egg cartons for egg-xample. Not only do we use them for eggs, but they make excellent seed starters and fire starters. 

Glass jars? Don’t even get me started - we reuse glass containers over and over!

So, I’d love to hear your favorite sustainable swaps in the comments below!

Water propagation is a simple way to share housepl Water propagation is a simple way to share houseplant cuttings, and a very effective means of propagation.

Although not all plants can be propagated this way, there are many species that can.  Today we are learning all about proper pruning and water propagation as demonstrated on my rhaphidophora tetrasperma.  This plant has been pruned and propagated several times, and continues to grow to the ceiling!

This post is loaded with pictures to demonstrate the whole process, which is perfect for beginners.  Link in bio.

"You can be anything you want to be. Did you know "You can be anything you want to be.  Did you know that Mommy?"

Words of wisdom from my four year old son as we were driving off the other morning.  I always tell my kids that, daily and sometimes twice per day. 

Do whatever you want to do, you can do anything.  Be anything.  You can do anything you dream up.  Society can put so much pressure on us all, but especially our kids at such a young age. 

If our boys learn anything from me at all, let it just be for them to grow and do what makes them truly happy.  After all, isn't that what we all really want anyway? 

This Sunday, I hope everyone can take a moment to go against the grain of what "needs to be done" and just be who you are - right where you are.

On a side note, I'm working on a sweet dessert recipe and taste testing this beautiful cake.  Can't wait to share it with you all once it's perfected.

I spend some time researching sourdough scoring te I spend some time researching sourdough scoring techniques and planning out how to score each loaf.

When I pulled this one out of the oven, I noticed the top of it had cracked.  I immediately thought of what I could do differently next time to prevent the cracking and make the design look perfect.

Then I realized ... if the loaf comes out perfect, I won't want to cut and eat it.  I'm actually happier that it cracked.

Life is about the journey, it's about learning, cracking, enjoying and having fun.  It's not always about being perfect.

Let's talk about Vitamin C for a moment ... for ou Let's talk about Vitamin C for a moment ... for our skin!

Vitamin C has incredible skin benefits, and is known to lighten, brighten and tighten our skin.

Lighten dark spots or blemishes from skin.  Brighten the complexion with Vitamin C's exfoliating properties, and of course tighten by boosting collagen production.

Great skin starts from the inside out, so eat healthy, drink plenty of water and take care of your skin.

Sourdough scoring is definitely an art. I’ve fou Sourdough scoring is definitely an art. I’ve found myself Googling sourdough scoring just about every day the last couple of weeks!

This loaf was supposed to have a leaf scored onto it, to match my monstera plants that we love so dearly. 

We have found the sourdough scoring tools are tough to use, and have had much better luck with a regular razor blade. 

Do you have any sourdough scoring tips to share? I would love to hear them.
