Even I Can Cook – Sort of…

June 1, 2013

Recently my kids have wanted healthier meals.  I explored the Pinterest website and decided to make spaghetti squash instead of pasta for dinner.  I’ve eaten spaghetti squash at restaurants in the past, but never attempted to make it myself at home.  I was pretty excited that it was so easy to make and tasted great!
One large spaghetti squash
Cut in half and scoop out the seeds
Bake at 375 degrees for approximately 50 minutes
This is the finished result

Use a fork to scrape out the squash
Serve it however you like it
We had it with tomato sauce and a little parmesan cheese
We all loved it!
I need to try new recipes more often.

      I’m trying! The problem at my house is that nobody is ever home. My husband travels for business and my kids are always out with friends so I find it hard to cook for just one or two of us. We’ll see…

      Have a great week!

      Even funnier is that I used to eat so healthy all the time but have completely slipped for the past 8 months or so. I need to get back on track and it’s good that my kids want healthier options too. Have a fabulous week! Stacie xo

Comment LINKS for more information on how to shop Comment LINKS for more information on how to shop this lovely jewelry brand. BONUS - I have a discount code for 20% off their website during the entire month of November!!

No outfit is complete until it’s properly accessorized! Don’t you agree? 🤩

These fun pieces are from a “new to me” brand called Allie + Bess. And I didn’t even realize that they’re local to me here in the DFW area.

I’m impressed with the look and the quality of everything so far. I especially love the necklaces because I’ve been into the layered look lately.💖

But I do love the fun and versatile bangle bracelets too because I’ve been into bracelet stacks lately.💖

Discount code is Stacie20 when you use my link! 💘

No kidding when I say that Jude Connally knocks it out of the park with her luxurious Jude Cloth.

This fabric is the brushed Jude cloth, which is thicker than the original, so it’s perfect for Fall and Winter.

I love this new plaid print! And big bonus because the fabric is wrinkle resistant, so it looks great from morning until night. 

Her clothing makes me feel confident wherever I go! Don’t you love that feeling?
