Pumpkin Waffles

This week is feeling like Fall and I absolutely love it. I'm not looking forward to this weekend where the temperatures plan on going back up to the 90s+. In the meantime, I'm enjoying my nightly walks and spending time in the cooler weather. 

Yesterday for breakfast I made these Pumpkin Waffles. Not only do I love pumpkin flavors, but it's a healthy, easy breakfast that filled me up all morning. Making homemade waffles not only made my house smell amazing but it also is much better and more delicious than using a pre-made mix. All of the ingredients are recognizable and it makes me feel like I'm eating a healthy, wholesome meal. One serving made one waffle for me and I topped mine with sugar free syrup and pumpkin pie spice. This recipe combined cinnamon, pumpkin pie spice, cream cheese, coconut flour, and almond extract, your taste buds will thank you for the sweet taste of Fall. 

Ingredients:
1 egg
1 oz plant-based cream cheese
1 tbsp coconut flour
2 tsp monkfruit (white sugar)
1/2 tsp almond extract 
1/4 tsp baking powder
1 tsp pumpkin pie spice
1 tsp cinnamon
2 tbsp Fage greek yogurt

Book Review and Summary - Prince Harry - "Spare"

Image
I may be one of the few, but I was intrigued by Prince Harrys' story, which prompted me to pick up his book "Spare." I have to say, as I first started reading, I couldn't put it down, I think I read 50+ pages the first day. I was aware of Prince Harry but knew very little about his life. I remember negative things in the news, all of the negative stories of him. He sounded to me like the "troubled" brother, and, unfortunately, he and everyone else believed he was. I also now understand the meaning behind the book title. The name "Spare" is a name that is described as the one that isn't important.

As Prince Harry said, his brother was the "Heir" and he was the "Spare" and it was very unfortunate events throughout  the book that describe how and why he felt like this. He mentioned Willy (Prince William) and him were, "The Heir and the Spare. I

Image
My cousin and I were spending some time together a few days ago and she asked about Jace and how he was doing in school. After a few minutes, she suggested that I blog about it. Initially, I wasn't too keen on the idea, but after doing some research, I realized that parenting a middle schooler can be tough for a lot of parents (I got lucky and he is probably one of the easiest ones) at times so I decided to write down what I do to make our days better. Having a middle schooler is so different than having a child in elementary, to me. Here are 10 things that I/we have done that has really made our days easier and better together.  1. Be consistent - every morning I ask my son how he slept and when he comes home, I ask him how his day was. When we eat together as a family (2-3X per week), we each go around the table discussing our highlight of the day. If I somehow miss or forget the questions, he asks me what my highlight was or how my day was which I absolutely love.  On the same t
