Keto Chocolate Chip Pumpkin Bars
These Keto Chocolate Chip Pumpkin Bars were a hit at Thanksgiving! Most of my family is eating Keto, but even those who don’t follow a ketogenic way of eating thought these were great. I think the trick was the sweetener. Erythritol based sweeteners like Swerve have a cooling effect that my kids can often detect in baked goods. For this recipe I decided to try Monkfruit instead and it went totally undetected! I’m calling that a win! {This article includes affiliate links.

Convenient Keto Snacks on the go:
These convenient Keto friendly snacks are great when you’re on the go and don’t have time to prepare something from scratch. I have personally packed all of these keto snacks on various road trips. In fact, I regularly keep Quest bars, almonds, Whisps, salame, cheese and beef jerky on hand for hiking snacks. They are all very portable and most don’t require refrigeration. Although the cheese and salame would be ideal in a cooler with an ice pack, they are perfectly fine for a few hours in a backpack. I wouldn’t trust the chocolate bars on a hike, but the quest bars are completely stable. CHEESE WHISPS | PICKLE BITES…

Great Finds for Summertime Travel
When I was shopping for our summer trip to San Francisco, I wanted to find something pretty and feminine I could wear for our special lunch at the Palace Hotel. I knew my daughter would probably chose to wear something more casual like a nice shirt and jeans, so I chose a cute bell sleeve blouse instead of a dress so it would compliment what she was wearing. Today I’m going to share a few of my great finds for summertime.

Lunch at the Palace Hotel in San Francisco
The Garden Court at the Palace Hotel When I’m planning out our travel itinerary, I love to find really special places to eat. I had such a good experience with the afternoon tea at the Georgian Hotel in Seattle that I wanted to find a similar venue to enjoy tea in San Francisco. Months before our trip, I stumbled upon the Garden Court at the Palace Hotel. Afternoon tea is served on Saturdays and as luck would have it we were going to be in San Francisco over the weekend. I was beyond excited! Unfortunately, I waited too long to make reservations and the tea seating had been filled. I…
