When anyone asks me where to find a pair of cheap (but cute) sunglasses or an oversized t-shirt, my first answer is always Amazon. You really can't beat the shipping speed. Which answers why we usually have a package or two each week at our doorstep. I mean, with a baby and the fact that I hardly leave the house, it's easy for those Prime packages to add up. ...
I think we can all agree it feels good to actually get ready these days. Even if it is just to pick up coffee or groceries. And since I'm not wanting to invest in a big summer wardrobe at the moment, these under $50 basics have been ideal. ...
We all love an easy dinner recipe and if you're trying to stick with a low-carb lifestyle, here are a few meals that we have been enjoying lately.
Since starting F-Factor in January, we've had trouble finding low-carb meals that are 1. satisfying and 2. easy to make. This list checks both boxes for us. My personal favorites are the Garlic Crispy Brussel Sprouts and the Tortilla Pizza.
Let me know what you think if you try any of these! ...
This year has been incredibly fast -- I honestly can't believe George is one (actually 14 months, but you get the idea). I wanted to share some updates and answer questions I get asked often. ...
Sunglasses are a great place to save money (especially if you have a curious toddler always trying to grab at them, ha). In my search for quality sunglasses that don't break the bank, I've found a few that I am actually really impressed with.
I've been testing out budget-friendly styles and honestly, can't believe all of these are under $25. If you're also a big fan of owning sunglasses you don't have to stress about, check out this list. ...
Austin and I love a good margarita moment. And if it's spicy, that's even better in our book. This spicy marg recipe has been a nice treat during these summer months. I actually made these for our friends and they couldn't believe they were sugar-free.
Usually, I am not a fan of mixers. I find them overly sweet and typically they taste really "artificial". But a TTD reader told me about Swoon mixers (zero sugar zero cals) and encouraged me to order the Margarita mixer.
For a low-carb and zero sugar drink, we were impressed. It's made from Monk Fruit (a melon native to Southeast Asia that has natural sweetness) and has zero calories and carbs. We've been cooking with Monk Fruit for a while since starting F Factor, and it's the closest thing to sugar that we've tasted (unlike Splenda or Stevia). It took Austin a minute to get used to it, but I liked it right away. I've already bought a few bottles to share with the family over 4th of July weekend. ...
If we are going to wear a face mask, might as well make it chic. Rounding up some of my favorite non-medical options below! From repurposed designer dust bags to tie-dye (a crowd favorite), there's something for everyone. These sell out fast, so if you see one you like, you may want to grab it. ...
As you probably have noticed, tie-dye is a trend we are seeing everywhere. It has completely taken over my Instagram feed and honestly, I'm loving it. I typically stick to a neutral color palette in my wardrobe but lately, I've been loving the pastel colors. It all started with me buying this nude lounge set at the beginning of COVID and now I'm afraid to admit my collection has grown. From oversized hoodies to lounge sets, I've listed my top picks for tie-dye below. ...
If you're like me, iced coffee is a must this time of year. I could honestly drink it year-round, but during the summer it's truly the best treat.
I have 3 recipes that I have been rotating each week. Whether you like to go to Starbucks or make something at home, I have a recipe below that is ideal for iced coffee lovers. ...
