Hey guys, it’s me again! You all know that I have been working on keeping healthy and losing weight recently, and I have found that the ketogenic diet is a really effective way to lose weight. I lost about eight pounds last month! But the usual ketogenic diet can be a bit boring and greasy, so I did some research online and found that many people recommended trying a “dairy-free ketogenic diet.” So, I tried it out for about a week and wanted to share my experience with you. Getting…

Okay, so, I’ve been seeing Crown Royal Peach everywhere lately, and my curiosity got the better of me. I had to try it, and let me tell you, it’s pretty darn good. The whisky is smooth, and the peach flavor is just right – not too artificial or overpowering. Since I enjoyed the whisky so much, I started experimenting with some recipes. I’m not much of a cook, but even I managed to whip up some tasty stuff. Peach Lemonade First, I tried making a simple Peach Lemonade. I just…

Okay, so I’ve been seeing these “cool whip recipes fruit salad” things all over the internet and thought, why not give it a shot? I mean, who doesn’t love a good fruit salad, right? Especially one that’s a bit more… dressed up. So I decided to try it out and document the whole thing, ’cause that’s what I do. First off, I gathered my fruits. I went with the usual suspects: strawberries, blueberries, some pineapple, and a kiwi, ’cause I like that little bit of green in there. I washed…

Hey everyone, it’s your boy back again with another one of my little experiments. Today, I’m diving into the world of cookies, but not just any cookies – I’m talking about a whole bunch of different kinds, all based on stuff I found in this online “cookiepedia” thing. Sounds fancy, right? Well, it wasn’t as complicated as I thought it’d be, and I’m here to share my whole journey with you guys. So, first things first, I had to get my hands on all the stuff I needed. I made…

Okay, so the other day I got it into my head that I wanted to get better at cooking with my convection oven. I’ve had it for a while now, but honestly, I haven’t been using it to its full potential. I figured it was time to change that. I’ve heard that convection is awesome for getting things crispy, so I decided to start there. Getting Started with Veggies First thing I did was chop up a bunch of veggies – potatoes, carrots, broccoli, you name it. I tossed them…

Okay, here is my blog post about making cinnamon chips: Hey everyone! So, I’ve been craving something sweet and decided to try making cinnamon chips. I found some stuff online about it, and it seemed pretty easy, so I gave it a go. Here’s how it went down. Getting Started First, I gathered all the ingredients. I needed sugar, ground cinnamon, vegetable shortening, light corn syrup, and vanilla extract. I also grabbed a baking sheet and a mixing bowl from the cupboard. Didn’t want to start and realize I was…

Okay, so I’ve been trying to eat healthier lately and, let me tell you, it’s a jungle out there! I stumbled upon this idea of using a slow cooker for chicken recipes, and the whole gluten-free thing is important to me too. So, I decided to give it a shot and document my little adventure. Getting Started First things first, I grabbed my trusty slow cooker – seriously, this thing is a lifesaver. Then, I went on a mission to find some recipes. I wanted something simple, you know? Nothing…

Okay, so, I’ve been trying to get more use out of my rice cooker lately. You know, it’s one of those kitchen gadgets that just sits there most of the time. I figured, why not try making a whole meal in it? Chicken and rice seemed like a good place to start. First off, I grabbed a whole chicken. Nothing fancy, just your average bird from the grocery store. I rinsed it off and patted it dry with some paper towels. Then, I started thinking about flavors. I’m a big…

Okay, so I really wanted to try making chicken pastry. It always seemed like such a cozy and comforting dish, perfect for a chilly evening. So, I decided to give it a go! I looked up a bunch of recipes online. They all seemed pretty similar, but I wanted one that was easy and didn’t have a million ingredients. First, I gathered all my stuff. I needed some chicken, of course, I used the breast because they are easy to cook. And some veggies like carrots, celery, and onions. I…

Okay, so, I wanted to try out some new pasta shapes, and I stumbled upon this thing called “Cellentani”. It looked kinda cool, like little corkscrews, so I grabbed a box. It’s from Barilla, that brand you always see at the store. First, I just boiled some water and tossed the Cellentani in. It took, I dunno, like 8-10 minutes to get it cooked, just like regular pasta. Gotta give it a taste test to make sure it’s not too hard, you know? While the pasta was cooking, I started…
