Homemade "Laraballs"

Who is in the mood for a snack?  Last night I made some super easy (and totally yummy) "Laraballs" (aka knock off Larabars in the shape of balls.  Creative, eh?)

Enjoy- they make a great snack, especially if you're busy and need something to hold you over until your next meal!  Pop a couple in a ziplock and throw them in your purse for some 'om nom nom' on the go!

Coconut/Almond Flour Pancakes

Happy (almost) 2013!  What a year it has been.... I think 2012 can be summed up in one word- CRAZY.  At one point in 2012, Brenton and I looked at each other and had the exact same thought:  "This is the strangest thing we have ever done" (referring to the last minute trip where we flew CMH-PHX-LAX-LAS so he could play onstage with 311 at the MGM Grand Arena).

 
















2013 will have a new word.  Sure, spontaneity is always fun (...sometimes fun, or maybe just exhausting), but this upcoming year needs to chill back a little.

Breathe.

Ah.  That sounds nice.   Breathe.  More exercise- more breathing.  More meditation- more breathing.  More practicing of music- more breathing.  You get the picture.

So who wants pancakes (lol)?  I made some awesome coconut flour/almond flour pancakes this morning that were totally om nom nom worthy.


4 eggs, room temperature
1 cup coconut milk
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 T honey

1/2 cup coconut flour
1/4 cup almond flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/8 teaspoon sea salt
2 teaspoons cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg

Blend all of the ingredients together in a food processor or blender

Then scoop into a 'pre-heated coconut oil greased' skillet and cook both sides until done!  We added some chocolate chips to a few of them....

Happy New Year, my dears.  Good things to come in 2013- maybe even some VLOGGING.  Lord help us all.
