✨ LET’S TALK HABITS! ✨

We all have those things we KNOW we should probably do more of… and a few we could definitely do less of. 😂

If you had to choose just ONE of each…

💚 A habit you want to START: __________
❤️ A habit you’d like to QUIT: __________

Maybe it’s…
✨ Drinking more water
✨ Going to bed earlier
✨ Moving your body every day
✨ Putting the phone down more
✨ Taking a little time for YOU
✨ Quitting the snooze button… okay, maybe that one’s asking too much. 😂

💬 What are YOUR two? ❓👇

🔥🍫 STOP SCROLLING… IT’S S’MORES DAY! 🍫🔥

August 10 is National S’mores Day, and really… do we need a better excuse to enjoy a gooey, chocolatey treat?! 😋

FUN S’MORES FACTS! 👇
🔥 The first known published recipe for “Some Mores” appeared in a Girl Scouts publication in 1927.
🔥 The name makes perfect sense… because after ONE, you’re probably asking for “some more!” 😉
🔥 And you don’t need a campfire to enjoy them! S’mores can become cookies, bars, dips, brownies, pies, or even fun indoor treats.

👇 HOW DO YOU LIKE YOUR MARSHMALLOW?

🤍 Barely toasted
💛 Perfectly golden
🖤 Burnt & crispy
🔥 “I caught it on fire again!” 😂

And tell me—are you a classic s’mores person, or do you add something fun like peanut butter cups, caramel, cookies, or another favorite treat? 🍫😋

🔥 No campfire?
🌧️ Rainy day?
🥵 Too hot to sit around a fire?

No worries! I have a few Pampered Chef favorites that can come in handy and a few recipes as well! 🙌 You can find them in the comments below along with the shopping link for my open party to grab anything you need!
If you cannot get the links to work out cannot copy them

🍓✨ It’s National Raspberries & Cream Day! ✨🍓

Who decided raspberries deserved their own day with cream? 🤔😂 They must have a pretty powerful fan club… and honestly… I’m not mad about it! ❤️

Did you know? 👇
🍓 Raspberries are one of the few fruits that don’t continue to ripen after they’re picked, so the sweetest ones are harvested at just the right moment.
🍓 They come in more than just red—you can also find black, purple, and even golden raspberries! (National Day Calendar⁠)

Now let’s settle something… 👀

❤️ Team Fresh Berries & Whipped Cream?

💡 Time-Saving Mom & Grandma Tips

❤️ Keep one shelf in the refrigerator just for lunches.

❤️ Let kids choose one fruit, one veggie, one protein, one crunchy snack, and one treat.

❤️ Use leftovers! Last night’s chicken becomes today’s wrap, pasta salad, or quesadilla.

❤️ Freeze extra pancakes, waffles, muffins, and sandwiches for busy mornings.

❤️ Prep once, mix and match all week—less cooking, less cleanup, and fewer “What’s for lunch?” questions!

🍪✨ TODAY’S FOOD TIP! ✨🍪

🚨 Fun Fact: The world’s most famous cookie was actually created by ACCIDENT! 😲

Happy National Chocolate Chip Cookie Day! 🍪❤️

Here are a few sweet facts to impress your family today:

🍫 In 1933, Ruth Wakefield, owner of the Toll House Inn in Massachusetts, chopped up a Nestlé chocolate bar and added it to her cookie dough—thinking it would melt completely. It didn’t… and the chocolate chip cookie was born!

🍫 The cookies became so popular that Ruth made a deal with Nestlé: they could print her recipe on their packaging, and she would receive a lifetime supply of chocolate! 🍫🙌

🍫 Before chocolate chips existed, people actually had to chop up chocolate bars by hand! In 1939, Nestlé introduced the chocolate “morsels” we still use today.

🍫 The famous Toll House cookies got their name from the inn where they were first baked.

🍫 Today there are dozens of chocolate chip flavors to choose from—milk chocolate, dark chocolate, white chocolate, peanut butter, butterscotch, caramel, mint, and more! Which one would you add to your cookies? 🤔

👇 Let’s settle this…

🍪 Crispy or soft?
🥛 With a glass of milk or a cup of coffee?
🍫 What’s YOUR secret ingredient for the perfect chocolate chip cookie?

If you’re ready to try something a little different, check out this delicious twist on the classic:
