I used to be so intimidated by the idea of making oat milk at home. I mean… it just sounded like one of those Pinteresty things that people say is easy but actually takes forever, right?

Wrong.

This is honestly easier than making a smoothie. No fancy equipment. No long prep. No weird ingredients. Just pure, creamy oat milk in under 5 minutes.

Summertime is here, and I’ve got the perfect drink to cool you down and sweeten up your day! ✨

My husband had this brilliant idea to combine chocolate, strawberry, and vanilla non-dairy cold foam with an iced matcha latte to create what we’re now calling a Neapolitan Ice Cream Matcha—and when I tell you it was the best drink I’ve ever had, I am not exaggerating. Like… ever.

Let me just say—no one warned me. Not about the mental load, the random waves of pain, the “Is this normal?” panic, or how emotional I’d feel over a couple missing molars.

I had two upper molars pulled—one on each side—and that alone made things harder. You can’t really chew on either side, which meant every single bite (or attempt at a bite) became a full mental game.

It’s a word that can bring up all kinds of emotions—judgment, shame, hypocrisy, confusion, or even pride. Some people wear it like a badge of honor. Others avoid it like the plague. And if we’re being honest, many have been hurt by it.

Tax Day is here—and while that might not exactly spark joy, it doesn’t have to be all forms and frustration. Whether you’re getting a refund or cutting a check, April 15th can still come with some sweet silver linings—especially if you know where to look.

Intermittent fasting (IF) has gained popularity for its simplicity and potential health benefits. But what exactly is it, and how can it improve your daily life? Let’s break it down.

I’ve done my research, and I know what’s in sunscreen—harmful chemicals that claim to protect you from skin cancer but may actually be contributing to it. The very thing people slather on to prevent sun damage could be doing more harm than good.

Anger is such a natural human emotion. It rises up when we feel wronged, unheard, or overwhelmed. Sometimes, it feels justified, even necessary. But I’ve started to wonder—how often does anger get in the way of what God has for us? Could it be that holding onto anger keeps us from fully stepping into our divine purpose?
