  • Truth be Told Tuesday? Sure, let’s make that a thing. Mmm k? aka #realness or something like that. 🤷‍♀️ . . I’ll begin. You see, in 10 days I turn 35.... GASP! Honestly, 10 years ago I had my (our) whole life planned and laid out exactly how I wanted it to. Cause I am a control freak. #confessions. . And by age 35 my plan looked nothing like it does today. I thought I was suppose to have 3 kids by now. Okay that's a story for another day. Focus, focus! . But the funny thing is (see, I'm laughing here), our marriage verse was proverbs 16:9. . . "A man's heart plans his way, But the Lord directs his steps." It's as if God said, "Um, ya....but no, that's not gonna happen. But thanks for the lovely thoughts." 😇 . . . . So today, I've surrendered to planning ahead. Sure, I can plan my day, my week, my "big vision" per se. But by GOD (literally) I'm not going to plan what next year looks like. Instead I'll take the present moment and savor it. Well, at least I'm gonna try. #lessonlearned . . . 35 or bust! Bust out laughing, bust a move, busta rhymes and "twerk it." 💃 Okay I'll stop. . . 10 years ago, where did you envision you'd be in life today? Truth be told I bet today is sweeter! 😉 ☺️ . . . #livelifetothefullest #birthdaywishes #quotestoliveby

  • Someone once told me that zoodles (aka zucchini 🥒 noodles 🍝) were “so last season.” . And that we need to stop making dishes that use them. 🤷‍♀️ I was perplexed and confused. Why should we label eating twirly vegetable noodles as trendy or non trendy? It’s a vegetable! #eatyourveggies . . My reply? . “Well then I better make sure they have a comeback, welcome back Cotter style!” If you’re over 30 years old you’ll get that joke! 😂 . . But for reals 👉👉👉 For someone with #celiac or gluten sensitivity, zoodles are an affordable and tasty way to enjoy noodles! I don’t think that should ever go out of season. #eatgoodfeelgood . . Let’s have “fun” here. You’re go-to protein, zoodles, bean sprouts, peppers 🌶, Asian spices all come together to make..... wait for it... . . 👇🏻 .

  • Can I give you one tip? Just one fish cooking tip? Fish can begin to break down if left in a marinade too long, especially an acidic one. This can result in a mushy consistency that may taste too pungent and fall apart before eating it. . I learned this tip years ago after attempting to marinade a flaky fish (think cod, salmon, etc.) for hours. A #rookie move! But THERE IS A SIMPLE WAY TO FIX THIS YA'LL! As I scream with excitment! 👏 . . You can simply cook salmon (or any other flakly fish) in a little bit of olive oil lemon 🍋 or lime, garlic, salt, pepper, etc. Then ADD SUPER FLAVOR with a SALSA or RELISH! Get ready to truly "relish" this dish. YO! Made in less than 30 minutes. It's sexy, sweet, it's smokey, it's sizzlin, it's..... EASY BAKED SALMON WITH CHIPOTLE PEACH SALSA. 🍑 . You're welcome. Now let's all give fish some love. Mmmm k? 😘 . .
