  1. The Oh She Glows Cookbook by Angela Liddon

Oh She Glows is a colorful vegetarian cookbook. Now, before you stop reading, let’s admit that even if you are not a vegetarian, we all could use a little more veggie servings a day. One reason why I like Angela’s cookbook is because she shows us new and innovative ways to weave vegetables and fruits into our meals. My favorites from her cookbook are the out-the-door chia power doughnuts and roasted beet salad with hazelnuts, thyme &balsamic reduction. You can purchase this cookbook for about $25.00.

  1. Joyous Health by Joy McCarthy

Joyous Health is amazing because not only is it a cookbook but it’s also a, as the title suggest, health book! Throughout the book, there’s healthy, wholesome recipes, Joyous Health Tips, and she even talks about mental health and having positive thoughts. She teaches us healthy ways to combat stress and to fight trigger eating. My absolute favorite part about the book is when she teaches us the importance of detoxing and gives us drink detox recipes. This one will run you for around $20.00

  1. The Real Girls Kitchen by Haylie Duff

Now this cookbook is for my real girls out there who love to eat real, delicious, and meaty foods. Haylie is excellent at having the perfect balance between healthy and yummy mixed with new recipes and old recipes that are just too good to chuck! My favorite from her recipes is the Haricot Vert Salad. I took it to a potluck once and everyone loved it! Also, her sweet and spicy butternut squash is remarkable. The real Girls Kitchen will cost you around $19.00.

She Creates: Personalized Mugs

She Creates: Personalized Mugs

by | Jul 14, 2015 | Faith + Expressions

Two days before Christmas last year I got the urge to get presents for the adults in my family. Two days before Christmas with little money in my pocket. In order for my parents not to pay for their own gifts, I took the ten dollars that I had, and began to do research for meaningful, but quality gifts for my five elders and stumbled upon this project on Pinterest.

This project is not just good for Christmas or adults. Personalized mugs can be made by anyone and given to anyone for any occasion or even used as decoration to spice up your home.

You’ll Need:

  • Sharpie markers*
  • Blank white mugs
  • An oven

Instructions:

  1. Now that you have purchased the white mug, then you must decorate it. If you want to keep the design simple, then use a black sharpie. If you are looking to make something extravagant looking, then you multiple colors. And if you’re looking for inspiration, Pinterest, Tumblr, and Google are all amazing outlets for ideas pertaining to this project.
  2. Once you are satisfied with the way your design looks on the mug, give it time to dry completely.
  3. Generally when you put something in the oven, you allow the oven to warm up first. This is not the case with this project. Put the mug in the oven before you heat the oven to 350°F, and keep the mug in there for 30 minutes plus the time it takes the oven to cool completely.

And you’re done! Please note that it is best for you hand-wash the mug, otherwise you may wash off the design.

*For long-lasting results, use oil-based paint sharpie markers.

 

Keep Creating!
