I am in-between jobs so I need to save money. I have seen others do videos on spray dish soap but most didn’t foam as much as I would like. I worked on my own recipe and this works perfect for me.
The dish soap can be any brand but I have not had luck with the very cheap runny brands. I found that you need the thicker more concentrated soaps.
Here you go!
Before you all yell at me for shopping at Walmart, I try not too. However, I needed a shirt for a breast cancer survivor picture and I had to have it in less then 24 hours. I wish I could buy local more often but alas the Internet has not allowed that to be feasible for a long time. Walmart was the ONLY store within 15 miles that even had a pink breast cancer shirt.
Needless to say I didn’t even notice both the sticker over the actual price or the wording on the shirt until I got home.
The least they can do is cover their tracks better and put a new tag on it and not just a sticker over the original price. Also, if you are going to sell a shirt, with wording, in a English speaking community, you may want to have someone proof read it first.
I did wear the shirt because I didn’t have another option at the time. Here it is!
I made my 3rd bread video. This was my original recipe that made me think I should try other vegetables. I grew up not liking sweet potatoes but as I’ve gotten older I have learned to like them.
This Sweet Potato bread is a staple for me now. It doesn’t freeze as well as my Gold Potato and Carrot bread but it is so good fresh!
Enjoy!

Thanks for watching.
I have created a video of my Gold Potato Bread. This is a family favorite. This is so good especially when it’s freshly out of the oven.
I have gone through cancer twice so I have been trying to find ways to limit my white flour because of how fast it turns to sugar and it’s a weight gainer for me. This bread I use in lunches. It is good cold or warm.
I have tried most potatoes and this one spreads the easiest and has the best flavor in my opinion.
Here is the link to my carrot bread as well. https://btrbb.com/carrot-bread-4-ingredients/
I have seen so many different ways to make flourless break and it got me thinking…”what other vegetables can I use?” Well, I opened up my fridge and decided to try it with carrots. I love it!
Because I don’t like wordy recipe posts here is my video on how I make it. I hope you enjoy it.
I will have more coming soon as I have tried just about every vegetable I can think of.
Here is a favorite…Tater Tot Cassserole. Not the healthiest but anything in moderation is ok.
1 Bag of tater tots
3 small cans of cream of mushroom soup
1 bag of frozen beans thawed
1 lb. Ground Turkey (hamburger works too)
1 cup of grated cheese (whatever you desire)
Garlic powder (to taste)
Salt and pepper (to taste)
Brown the meat first and mix everything together with the cooked meat.
Bake at 400 for 20 min.
Sprinkle cheese on top and bake another 15 min.
ENJOY!

I’ve lost 7 pounds since Christmas. 2 things I have done different that explains it.
Sharing my referral links below if anyone is interested. I get a credit on my next food box order. It’s worth it. I am buying it anyway so if anyone wants to try them and spread me some savings I would love it!
It seems like a lot of $ at first but only having to buy breakfast items and lunches for the boy at the grocery has saved me about $150 a month on my Kroger bill. Not impulse buying and thinking…”maybe I’ll make this.”
I saved my receipts for 3 months from the grocery and compared to my meal delivery months and I definitely saved.
We still have one weekend day of pizza with the in laws. We eat clean for 6 and eat pizza on the 7th day. The good is definitely out weighing the bad and making me feel much better and losing inches so yay!

So I got the book The 5 Love Languages for my wedding like 14 years ago and just finally got around to listening to the audio of it because I’m too lazy to read the book.With the audio I can walk around and do other things as I listen. I also read the five love languages of children and I probably should have read this 13 years ago because there’s a lot of things in there that I wish I would have realized in the beginning of my relationship with my husband and my kids so I need apologize to my kids and my husband for not taking the time to learn better from the beginning. Hopefully I have figured out some stuff too late for before any permanent damage has been done!
As I’ve said, many times before, I know that my mood definitely creates the entire mood in the home. For the most part for not just my kids but my husband as well. Something that I have noticed after my dad passed away is that I was really angry, and for a long time. Probably like 16-18 months. I noticed a change in my kids especially my son who I found out is very very sensitive and his love languages are words and touch and I was so short-tempered that I noticed that he was misbehaving more because my mood was rubbing off onto him. My daughter who is a preteen and hormonal anyway was also in a really bad mood, and way more than normal. This is just another reason to know that my mood is definitely creating their moods at an accelerated speed. My relationship with my husband was even getting rocky. He tried to be very compassionate, but even the strongest person has a hard time being around an angry person 24/7.
Since I figure this out, I have tried very hard to change my mood and think about what my mood is going to be for the day. I have changed my vitamins, I am eating cleaner and getting back into an exercise mode because all that helps with anger and grief and everything else. Getting back into my weight loss regimen has changed my mood a lot. I am a lot happier. Plus my kids enjoy this so much because they are working out with me and we are having fun.
I have been a lot calmer and I have noticed a BIG change around the house. My hormonal preteen is still a hormonal preteen but she’s been a little bit more bearable. We’ve been able to have more conversations and the yelling ventures had nearly left the home. My son has had better concentration and is getting in trouble less.
On the days I find myself heading down a terrible path I have to go to a space where I am alone and regroup. Whether this is a short 10-15 min. nap or just plain old sit on my bed in quiet and think about how I want the day to go time.
Either way, this has all changed the dynamics in the house. Also, my husband and I are on way better terms. We argue 90% less and we can have conversations with each other and even disagree without getting all mad.
The circumstances to learn this sucked. I wish for my dad back every day. However, I guess you could say that my Dad has helped me learn some healthy coping skills. Thanks Dad, I sure do miss you. Regardless of how it happened I am glad that I am now a smarter person and can realize this. Not every day is perfect but it least we have a lot more perfect days then we did before.
When I was younger life seemed a lot less stressful. Of course it was, I was a kid. However, I don’t believe that is very normal anymore. Kids are in so much stuff, including mine, and now I am starting to worry that they are doing too much and not being kids enough. That is for another post. This post is about how my stress effected my household.
I never was a believer in ADHD. I honestly thought it was a bad excuse for parents that were too busy to train their child. Then I had a son, whom I love dearly, however, that boy has the most energy of anyone I have ever met. Could ADHD be real?!
True words spoken, by me, many times. You know the time when you are single and young and you know more than the parents around you? Yes, I know exactly how I would be as a parent. I would be patient and I definitely wouldn’t be caught dead in a public place with a screaming child. Don’t parents know how to keep their kids calm and quiet? Yes, I was the 20 something judging you in the corner table of the restaurant while you kid threw food all over the floor.
Then came the books, all the books. When I was pregnant I read a good load of books. I was sure to have this parent thing under 100% control now. I knew everything I needed to know to do everything right and perfect! If you would have asked me, at that time, I knew it all.
I have to admit that my first child was pretty perfect. She was calm and sweet and barely cried. She slept through the night at 3-months (12 hours at a time) and has always slept through the night. It was the three of us and while my husband was at work, we ruled the world. Life was perfect and I had it going on.
Then something happened. My child got older and this sassy little princess started to test me. No worries though I had all my experience of parent judgment in my 20’s and even more experience reading about it. Bring it on little sass monster, bring it on! But wait…none of this sh$@ works. What, wait…the books lied, they all lied! Why is my perfect little princess yelling and crying at me in the grocery store over a can of olives I took out of her hand and put back on the shelf. Wait! Give it back, NO that didn’t work either…OMG everyone is looking at me wth! Who are you little devil and what have you done with my sweet child! This is the time I grab her from the cart and run out crying and sobbing…”why oh why!”
