 This waffle recipe is one of my favorites! The original recipe I found on Sweet Potatoe Soul's YouTube channel and adapted it to my liking. There are no eggs or dairy in these waffles and everything needed is shown below. 


Here are the ingredients for this recipe:

1 1/2 cups of whole wheat flour
1/3 cup of brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon of salt
1 teaspoon of baking powder
1/2 teaspoon of baking soda
1 tablespoon ground flax + (2) tablespoon of water (flax egg)
1 1/2 cups of almond milk (I used coconut milk)
1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1/2 stick of melted plant butter

(Optional: a few pinches of allspice for taste)
Mix all ingredients in a mixing bowl with a fork. Combine until batter is smooth.

Lightly grease your waffle maker with some butter and fill your waffle maker with the homemade batter. This is a $20 waffle maker I got from Ebay. It takes about 6-8 minutes to make (2) waffles in this waffle maker.
There you have it! Some beautiful homemade vegan waffles you can enjoy with plant butter and syrup without leaving the house! Plus there is plenty more batter for 2-3 more servings. This is what I call a happy meal :) Hope you try them at home!






 So I woke up today with simple living on the brain. It’s become my new obsession. Scaling back my lifestyle to live slower is one of the best decisions I’ve ever made for my life. When I was younger in my 20’s I would have so many problems with money and my health and I see now in my mid 30’s that was due to stress and doing too much at one time. 

When I wake up I drink tea and have a banana and maybe some cereal. Then I check on my online sales on Mercari, Ebay and Depop. And start the day with good intentions to create great content and make the best merchandise (MERCH) I can make. I’ve even added blogging into my daily calendar. I love the freedom of writing out my thoughts instead of videos. The direction I want to take on videos is more of a teaching approach. I really enjoyed videos showing people how to do things. I’m pulling away from the vlogs a little more just focusing on vlogging life events I can look back on not so much of everyday life.

Self care has also been at the top of my list. With everything going on I like to prepare my own foods. I’ve started sprouting Alfalfa seeds  in my kitchen and creating bean salads almost every other day. I also like to pickle my own green peppers and onions in apple cider vinegar. Then with the apple cider vinegar I take a shot or two. It’s been a relief to have food made and not go out to eat. There is so much going on I don’t want to eat out at this time.

It’s really a joy to see at the end of the day you created all this different merchandise and content for different platforms and you're on your way to making a full-time creative income. You just have to keep going and living this simple efficient lifestyle makes it possible. I will always preach to pull back your living expenses and make as much money as you can! Here is the most important part ----> Invest in skills. This is what takes your income up. Every time you learn a new skill you have a new avenue to make more money. 


So far for me it’s been working great! I hope for the entrepreneurs out there that you try this so you can get to a creative lifestyle as quickly as possible. You don’t have to wait 10-20 years to retire. Why not live the life you built RIGHT NOW! Personally I don’t want to retire. I want to be doing what I’m doing now basically forever. Choose to love your life guise. Thank you for coming by! I’ll see ya in the next post.


 

Yes! I finally got my blog back after spending years unsuccessfully on Word Press only to have my old blog go up in smoke. All I wanted was to write some post along with my You Tube videos.. simple. But now with some help from a wonderful seller on Etsy (Eve (SoulMuseDesign) I was able to get my blog back to the way it used to look. Actually it looks way better than before I absolutely love it and it cost me nothing to run each year. 
I'm extremely excited to share my ventures this year! Yes 2020 took all of us for a loop BUT some amazing things came out of it. New outlooks on life, new revenue streams, even a new attitude towards everything around me. I'm super grateful and just getting this blog back up and running shows that there is more than one way to skin a cat! I can't wait to drop all these simple living tips and thoughts with all of you. I love self publishing I think everybody should have a blog, vlog or both. Even if it's just for a hobby it's a wonderful way to express looks, ideas, give tips. I missed this so much!
She got my blog looking RIGHT! I'm so happy right now!
Thank you for visiting my blog! Plenty of post on the way!
