Change.

Hey guys welcome back to my blog! Today I wanted to talk about something some people hate while others people love it: change!

So if I am being completely honest I had no idea what I was going to talk about today until I logged into my word press account. When I logged into my account and was ready to type I noticed that word press has changed their format for typing rough drafts. Of course there was only minimal changes but as soon as I was about to type I saw that things were different. The publish button is in a different spot and the font is bigger than before. So of course these changes are small but they are changes. It got me thinking about change. How do you react with change? Do you love change and want more of it? Or do start having an anxiety attack whens something tiny changes like your font size?

Well, I think change is a great thing! The truth is, whether it seems good or bad God has everything happen to you for a reason and he purposefully and thoughtfully plans out your entire life. In life there are gonna be thousands of changes and we have two ways to react to change. We can freak out and not understand what is happening. Or we can choose to take a deep breath, breathe and roll with the punches. Things are going to change but that’s okay, in fact it’s great. Change is a great thing that shapes your character! Truthfully, I think everyone knows change is a good thing but they just panic when it happens to them. So the real question is: How do you face change?

Thanks for reading! New post will be up on Thursday!

Pinterest Hits and Misses: Cookie in a Mug

Hi! Welcome back to my blog! Today I will be talking about the cookie in a mug recipe on Pinterest!

I first saw this recipe on Pinterest a few years ago and thought it looked interesting but never tried it. Today I happened upon it again and decided I would give it a try. I figured it must be pretty awesome since there is soo many different variations of this recipe. Such as the: “cake in a mug recipe”, “cheesecake in a mug recipe”, and the “brownie in a mug recipe”. At first I thought I would do a tutorial on how to do this recipe. But then it hit me, why would I make a tutorial on something that you can find literally everywhere on google and pinterest?? So then I decided that I should make the cookie in a mug to see if it actually works. There are thousands of meals and crafts all over pinterest but there are only a few sites explaining if these crafts and meals actually work or not. That is when I decided to create my first ever blog series called “Pinterest hits and misses” (original name.. I know).

So I am sure you are dying to know whether or not the cookie in a mug actually works or not. Don’t worry I will tell you that…eventually ;). So first thing is first.. the recipe itself was easy and took about 5 minutes total to make. Although I do think the concept is a great one, the end product definitely was not the best. I mean, a microwave can only do so much. And a microwave can not substitute an oven! The pros of this recipe were: easy to make, quick, unique (not something you eat every day) and fun! The cons: not too tasty, a little too doughy, not worth the calories. 😉 No but seriously, it was fun trying out this recipe but I most definitely won’t be trying this again. I much rather stick to my Nestle cookie dough.  🙂 So I am going to have to declare this pinterest recipe a MISS.

Thanks for reading my blog! I will posting a lot more in this blog series! Hope you liked it! Next post is on Thursday!
