I can help make the dinner delicious and the prep a little easier. Does anyone else feel me on the rest? 🥴🙇‍♀️

40 minutes-time to prep and get this meal on the table.

10 minutes-length of time it took for the family to eat the meal.

4,950 min-time and I told our children to stop fighting at the dinner table and saying no, they could not use their loads.

An oldie but a goodie. Love me a good pickle. When it comes to gut health, though, not all pickles are created equally. If you're looking for food sources of probiotics then make sure you're choosing fermented pickles as opposed to ones that have been brined in vinegar. ⁣

What's the difference? ⁣

Pickles can be made through fermentation, or a quick vinegar or lemon juice massage. Fermented pickles offer you the benefits associated with the probiotics that form during the act of fermentation.⁣
How do you know if your pickles are fermented or just pickled? ⁣

√Look for ones that say "naturally fermented" or "no vinegar"⁣
√make sure they were not heat processed⁣

I forget the rest ⁣
-Walt Whitman⁣

Just kidding. I will not forget the broken a/c or lack of sleep, but most importantly, I will remember the highly privileged 24-hour kid-free break which was incredibly delightful. ⁣

I will remember bugging you about your mouth noises and you tolerating me. Now that is what you call romance!⁣

While more people are surviving breast cancer than ever before it is still the most common cancer & the second leading cause of cancer death among Canadian women. Consider contributing to the Canadian Cancer Society this month & help make a difference in the lives of so many.

Take a look at how I plan to get my little ones a little more connected to our food supply. 🔗 ☝️.⁣
