Would you like to save money on a kitchen staple? Especially if it’s something you need, but don’t need that much of, like heavy cream? Here’s my easy, money saving hack to make your own!
WHAT YOU’LL NEED:
2/3 cup whole milk
1/3 cup melted butter
OR
7/8 cup half-and-half
1/6 cup butter
Whisk well, until combined and it’s ready to use!
Are you a snacker? If you’re tired of grabbing yet another protein bar or worried you might slip and open a bag of chips, this is for you! My easy low carb, keto-friendly, zero sugar pizza bites. These just might keep the kids out of the candy drawer, too. Best of all, only 3 ingredients!
WHAT YOU’LL NEED:
-Shredded cheese (I use an Italian blend)
-Italian seasoning
-Small bag of pepperoni (I used Applegate Turkey Pepperoni)
DIRECTIONS:
In cupcake pan, place 1-2 T. Shredded cheese in each cup. Italian a seasoning to taste, I sprinkle it like I would to salt & pepper something. Place 1 pepperoni on top of each cup.
Bake at 375F for 10 mins.
They’ll be slightly browned and will have hardened a bit. Use a spatula to scoop out!
Aren’t they just mouth-watering? These pizza bites are guilt-free and a hit with my entire family!
Side note: if you’re feeling fancy, dip them into tomato sauce before taking a bite!
Can you flip an omelet? For years I’ve destroyed my eggs trying to flip them, I’ve never been able to master the art of the wrist flip. But those days are over, thanks to this game changing hack!
INGREDIENTS
–2 eggs
– a dash of milk
-a dash of salt & pepper
Stir in a bowl then pour into your pan like normal. I use the GreenPan Ceramic Nonstick Frying Pan (completely toxin-free.)
Move it around just a bit, up until the point that you would normally try to flip it (but then have a disaster.)
Now, we’re going to use the LID! Grab your pan and slide eggs gently onto the lid. Then, take your pan and FLIP!
Didn’t I tell you it was easy?
And just like that, we have the perfect omelet!
How many baby wipes have you used in the past couple of years? I couldn’t even begin to count! But I can tell you how many times I’ve struggled to get just one wipe out of the package: EVERY time, until I discovered this super simple hack!
All you’re going to need is to grab your baby wipe package and a rubber band for this hack! Go ahead and put the rubber band around one side of the wipes.
Reach in to pull a baby wipe, as you normally would and watch the magic happen.
One wipe at a time, as easy as that!
What day of the week is your cheat day? This past week, mine was on Tuesday: Mardi Gras! Here’s my quick and easy 3 ingredient beignet biscuit hack! Now let’s “Laissez les bons temps rouler” Let the good times roll!
WHAT YOU’LL NEED:
1 can store bought biscuits
3 Tablespoons melted butter (I use organic)
1/2 Cup sugar
Cut biscuits into quarters, toss in melted butter and sugar.
Spread on parchment lined baking sheet.
Bake at 375F for 10-15 minutes, until lightly browned. Turn halfway through, dust with powdered sugar.
& voila! These are quite possibly the easiest DIY beignets EVER!

Do you struggle making your bed? How about putting on that challenging duvet cover? Here’s a crazy little tip for changing it the easy way!
–
BED HACK: EFFORTLESSLY CHANGE YOUR DUVET COVER ☁️🛏
–
All you need is a couple of rubber bands! Lay your duvet cover flat on the bed and find the opening.
–
Then, run your hand up inside…most covers have ties at the top corners. If yours does, tie them to your insert. If not, grab your rubber bands and loop them around the outside of the top two corners to hold them in place. Now, when you flip the cover over your insert, those rubber bands act as little placeholders!
–
Pull the cover down, tuck in the corners, and button it up (bonus tip: button it backwards, toward your feet instead of your face). Once it’s all set, just pull off the rubber bands — and you’re done! 🛏️✨

What do you have on your bed, a bedspread or duvet cover? DM me, I’d love to know!

You’re probably not the only one who enjoys a stiff drink- your tulips need one too! Here’s a hack that’ll keep your flowers fresh longer.
This is a before and after comparison to show what a little bit of vodka can do.
You’ll need to use 7 parts water to 1 part vodka, trim your flowers, put them in a vase and you’re good to go!
P.S: don’t use your top shelf vodka for this one, use something more affordable (no offense Smirnoff!)
Do you have buttermilk in your fridge? Me, either! I got tired of buying the entire carton only to have a recipe call for a cup, so I started making my own. This is one of the easiest and handiest kitchen hacks out there – transforming ANY milk, including DF and nut milks in 1 step. The best part, you already have what you need!
DIY: Buttermilk
You’ll need 1 Cup of milk (any kind) and 1 Tablespoon of lemon juice. Stir both together. Let stir 5 – 10 minutes and it’s ready to use!
No lemons?
No worries! White vinegar or apple cider vinegar work, too.
When was the last time you were excited about unpacking your suitcase? I can’t remember, either! Here’s an easy and affordable packing hack that saves me countless life minutes on the road and at home!
Now, you can fit a week’s worth of clothing into your carry on with a cloth tiered hanging shelf.
Just fold your outfits and place each day on a shelf.
Then, collapse it right into your luggage.
When you arrive at your destination, pull it out and hang it up!
How much to do you enjoy packing for a trip? Honestly, it’s one of my least favorite parts of getting away. To make it easier, here are some of my favorite packing hacks. This video has gone viral on my TikTok account with more than 875K views and counting! I wanted to make sure you saw these before your next trip.
HACK #1
Use a vitamin holder to keep rings and earrings neat and separated. I’d recommend a large or extra large one to be able to fit rings or bigger earrings!
HACK #2
Large plastic straws work great at keeping necklaces from tangling! Drop one side in and pull it through to close.
HACK #3
Pack an oven mitt to store your hot irons when you’re on the go.
HACK #4
Until you can get home to do your laundry, pack some dryer sheets. Stick one of these with the dirty clothes to help with the smell!
HACK #5
Last, but not least, don’t forget small trash bags. They’re great for wet swimsuits and dirty shoes!
Happy packing!
How do you wash your bras? Growing up I was always told hand washing was the only option, now I know better! Here’s a hack that starts in the bedroom…
If you don’t have a lingerie bag, grab a pillow case and toss your bra right in!
Loosely tie & drop it into the washer. You’ll then add detergent, select the delicate setting, cold water and let it rip!
Instead of putting it into the dryer, we’re going to put it on a hanger to dry.
And there you have it, no more hand washing! This is a lingerie hack you’ll want to pass down.
