for the food #FTF

Haha. My life philosophy. Literally. Mumma Etts & I went a tadddd wild last weekend in Halifax... let's just say we covered the shopping bases. Especially the shoe department... #ithappens. I'm telling you- never coup up the Ettinger ladies from shopping for several months and then let them loose in a city. It's  a physically exhausting experience and quite deadly to the credit card. .... BUT, we will look & feel fabulous... soo.... OVER IT! Life lesson #1: just buy the SHOES. Remember that. 


I realized that I haven't blogged about food very much lately... which is ironic... because I clearly LOVE IT (Yeah, I LIKE MY CURVES OKAY? ... RUDE). I am telling you RIGHT NOW... and everyone else who has had jaw surgery is with me... never take food for granted #wisewords. But seriously, after having your jaw wired shut for a month... eating smoothies out of a syringe... (good times)...diets are seriously out of the question. That's just CRUEL. 


I have some food rules. These rules are serious. I never break them... or else I go against all of my morals. (you're like, what morals? hahahaha yeah ok I drink sometimes WHATEVER, I get drunk sometimes DON'T JUDGE ME) Here they are::


...
1. Anything, I repeat, ANYTHING, with cinnamon is delicious. Always.


2. No cookie is a bad cookie... And don't say raisins make cookies taste bad... cookies are legit. 


3. PB, banana & chocolate (insert nutella): lethal combo. nom nom


4. Mini eggs involved= no questions asked... YES.


5. Pancakes put everyone in a better mood & watermelon increases sex drive (This is a proven fact, I'm not just a total weirdo HAHA)




There you have it. Rachel's Food Rules. PS. this week marks Mini Egg season #HALLELUJAH ... mini eggs ALL DAY ERR DAY. for reals. I can't get enough of em. 

Mini egg blondies. Need I say more? Check out the recipe at: www.foodgawker.com

Peanut butter & chocolately goodness. #nuffsaid

Alright, so here they are. Heaven comes in many shapes and sizes, and in this case, they are in the form of small chocolate eggs with creamy, cherry cheesecake inside. #reallife. This is Ganong's new product... my Dad brought these home one day and asked me to try them. Honestly speaking, I'm not a big chocolate fan. Chocolate cake or ice cream, yes. Legit chocolate? No. But, I tried them and SWEET LORDDDD thank GAWD I did. These eggs are UNREAL. I'm serious, they are to-die-for-I-want-one-right-now. They are super small and not overwhelming...

Try em out!

Enough with the treats RACHEL, MAKE IT STOPPPP (this is the current situation of my willpower ... which always gives in, duh). LETTUCE WRAPS. my new phase. OBSESSED. It's not even do with carbs (although, bonus), I just love the crunch of chicken, veggies, peanut sauce wrapped in lettuce. You gotta have the asian peanut sauce to spice it up a bit. What a treat. #signmeup


Happy Easter! XX
