I made sopapillas!

  • FACEBOOK 13

Greg and I had a low-key anniversary, as it landed on a Monday. We be celebratin’ tonight! He’s taking me to the place where we had our wedding reception (an amazing Italian restaurant, in case you were wondering).

So, even though the actual anniversary was low-key, he grilled fajitas and I wanted to be in charge of dessert (being preggo with lil Baby O gives me even more of a sweet tooth). I wanted to make cheesecake, but he jokingly suggested sopapillas and started walking down the grocery aisle saying “SO-pa-PEE-yas!” in a high-pitched weird voice.

Then I thought about it… and it sounded delish. It could be my crazy craving, but I wanted to make it.

Have you non-Texans (I say that like it’s a curse… ha) ever heard of this or had them before? I know it’s a Tex-Mex thing.

I will admit, I wasn’t super hardcore about the sopapillas, as I didn’t make the dough myself. I know the sopapilla purists are probably cringing as they read this. Well, my way was actually really easy, and paired with a bowl of vanilla ice cream, it was heaven.

Here’s what I did:
– Quartered some flour tortillas
– Heated some vegetable oil in a skillet
– Fried those babies up
– Rolled them around in a cinnamon/sugar mixture
– Ate them with vanilla ice cream

Here’s what I regret:
– Not smothering it in honey. I even have some in the pantry. Silly Meg.

I’ve shared how I am really working on my hair h I’ve shared how I am really working on my hair health this year, and I am making great progress! 💪🏻 I’m determined to grow those baby hairs. Restoring postpartum hair loss takes time, but luckily @bondiboost has helped speed up the process. Along with the supplements, I’m also using the Hair Growth System. This system consists of a shampoo, conditioner, Miracle Hair Mask, Elixir Growth Oil, and Intensive Spray. I truly think these products are an amazing complement to my supplements! My hair feels softer, and stronger. Can’t wait to check in later to share my results after a few months’ use! #bondiboostus #boostyourroots [ad]

Have you tried it? Did you have a similar experience? Worth the hype or no?

I say DO NOT EVEN try and buy it (if you can even find it). It’s terrible. 😂 Tag a friend to save them some $$$. And make sure to tune into my IG stories, where you’ll see more honest product testing. 

I traumatize myself so you don’t have to. 💁🏼‍♀️

March 2021 👉🏻 March 2020. What. A. Year. 😭 As spring break kicks off, I keep thinking about how last year we went off to spring break and never came back. These kids have sure grown in so many ways. I’m proud of the girls’ resiliency and adaptability.

We are finally starting to see a light at the end of the tunnel, and are SO looking forward to fun summer plans (once mom and dad are fully 💉, of course)! 

It feels good to have some hope. 🙌🏻

I mentioned a few weeks ago that I have been worki I mentioned a few weeks ago that I have been working on restoring the after affects of my postpartum hair loss. I’ve been using @bondiboost supplements and products to regrow, nourish, and prevent further loss. One product I’ve been taking is the Anti Hair-Loss Supplement, which is perfect for anyone suffering from thinning hair and noticeable hair fall. It’s formulated with Biota Orientalis, which is an herb traditionally used in Chinese medicine to reduce hair loss and thinning. Plus, they’re vegan-friendly, cruelty-free, FDA approved, and made in Australia. In the month I’ve been taking this supplement, I’ve noticed less hair shedding in the shower and when brushing my hair. I can’t wait to see what continued use will do for my hair!
