How to make Reese's?

11/10/14

Who doesnt like Reese's? 

I know that when they are in my house they get eaten so quickly.

So I decided to make a healthy version of Reese's, this way when I eat one, I dont feel guilty.

Ohh and did I mention, you need 4 ingredients and it takes less that 10 minutes to make!!

What you need:
2 tbsp Coconut oil
4 tbsp Chocolate Shakeology
2 tbsp PB2
2 tsp water


Step 1:
Heat up coconut oil for 30 seconds in the microwave.



Step 2:
Add in your Shakeology and stir.



Step 3:
Mix your PB2 and water.



Step 4:
Poor Shakeology mixture into the bottom of cupcake wrappers (we only had normal cupcake wrappers, but when you make this yourself, get the mini wrappers).
Poor some of your peanut butter mixture.
Lastly, finish with your top layer of Shakeology mixture.

Step 5:
Put them in the freezer for 10-15 minutes and enjoy!!!


So I made the Shakeology Reese's and of course wanted to try them to give you my honest review of how they turned out.

I put way too much chocolate in them. Ya know how normal Reese's have more Peanut Butter than they do chocolate? Well mine were opposite. So next time I need to change that. If you like a lot of chocolate, it might not bother you as much, but for me... I am not a chocolate LOVER.

Second--- I am a PEANUT BUTTER FREAK, and I didnt the PB2 was strong enough, you could taste it, but it was really a faint taste. So the next time I make them, I am going to use almond butter instead!!

I think I am going to make these sometime this week with the changes I think will help!!
**I am on the hunt for the mini cupcake wrappers, so let me know if you find any!!


Is College Really For Me?

6/7/14

Hey guys,

I'm Kate!

I am definitely a flip flopper.
I decided to go to college for Hospitality Management at Niagara University, I wanted to be a wedding planner! I just love all the detail and prep that goes along with weddings. But the more I thought about it I realized that when I did have a family, I wanted to be there for my kids soccer game or dance recitals. I knew that if I continued with wedding planning that I would be working 80+ hours a week and I wouldn't be around for important events.

But one thing I gained while going to NU was a BESTFRIEND, Brittney <3



Shes perfect! And is such an amazing person to grow and learn from!She has an amazing story behind her, and is one of the strongest people you will ever meet. She also is one of the most caring people and I am so blessed to know and learn so much from her!


So while taking that semester off I thought I wanted to do photography and then I wanted to go back to school for nutrition and then get a business degree... Lets just say none of those happened.

Fall of 2012 I decided to go to Finger Lakes Community College. I was really hard on myself for going to a community college. Everyone made such a big deal that I had went from a university to a community school... but I decided going to school for something was better than not going back at all. Knowledge is POWER! Well sure enough I went back to the whole business idea, I decided to get my degree in marketing.

I finally got my degree, something that I really didn't think I would ever accomplish!!!

Ohh, and I met this other amazing person while at school, Taylor. I really don't think we would have survived college without each other!
While going to school I realized that I NEVER want to work for a marketing firm, and I NEVER want to work for someone else. I want to work for MYSELF and make my own hours and do what makes ME happy. 

So this brings me to January 2014, I changed my life. I decided that I not only want to start being healthy but I need to be. I need to workout everyday to be happy and feel good about myself, I need to eat healthy to be healthy on the inside and out. 

T25 and shakeology were my saving grace. I learned a lot about myself and how strong I AM!
I now am a Beachbody Coach, paying it forward to other people who want to see internal and external changes and realize their full potential just like I realized mine. 



I have some pretty amazing people in my life that have helped me while I struggled, while I succeeded and everything else in between. They make me a better person everyday and I really don't know where I would be without them!

My Mom and sister!! And as you can see they are GORGEOUS too!!  
They only want to see me happy, whether or not the decision I make is right, they just want to see my smile! Ohh and both of them always put my needs or wants before their own! 

And my boyfriend, MARK!!!
 He always puts things into perspective for me and brings me back to reality. He is constantly challenging me so that I can grow to be a better person!
