Friday Faves – No. 25

This week flew by and it certainly had its ups and downs. I like knowing that I get to do these Crunchy Kat Friday Faves posts for you at the end of each week; they’re some of my favorite posts. 

I know I don’t often share really personal stuff here but I hope you’ll allow me to share a bit more today.

My maternal grandmother passed away earlier this week and it just felt odd not to mention it. I always want to use this space to be open and honest so it feels right to tell you what’s going on in my life. Most of the time we talk about the food I’m eating, the makeup I’m wearing, or the Internet gems I’m reading. But I wanted you to know that this week, there was more going on behind the scenes. I’m doing well all things considered and I look forward to celebrating her life next week.

But, without further ado, let’s talk about this week’s gems! 

Here’s what I’ve been reading and listening to this week

Raw chocolate cups — These looks SO good. 

Did you hear that True Botanicals beat out Proactiv? I’m not surprised, people rave about True Botanicals. 

Still have questions about Matcha?

Mostly veggie chocolate smoothie — Whoa.

Morning Mint Matcha “Milkshake” — You can never have enough Matcha. 

Plane snack envy

Healthy Reese’s Eggs — These will be happening soon!

The downside of antibiotics — A helpful article about what to do if you have to be on antibiotics. I also appreciate the tone. There should be no antibiotic shaming.
