2 Minute Festive Choc Chip Cookies – Made In My LG NeoChef Microwave

Sponsored

December is here and the festive season has seriously begun in our household. We put up our tree on Friday evening and the kids were literally bursting with excitement as they hung their little ornaments.

The festive spirit is continuing all weekend with concerts and get-togethers, which is what this time of year is about really! My kids love cakes and cookies, so it’s natural for them to associate it with good times like these. I however don’t like having dozens of cookies and cakes hanging around in the kitchen, because as you know – too much of a good thing is bad. It’s way too tempting for Mom too!

It’s way too tempting for Mom too!

This is why I absolutely love this recipe I’m going to share with you. It only makes 2 large cookies. Bonus: it takes a couple of minutes to make!

I’ve Completed My GetSmarter Course – Now What?

Sponsored

The past few weeks have just gone by so quickly! It is honestly a blur to me.

Not only is the year almost over,  I’ve succesfully completed all six modules of my GetSmarter online course and without blowing my own horn here – I am so chuffed with my results!

What’s even most exciting to me is the fact that I have SO many new ideas and  things I can immediately start implementing – without physically even having my certificate!

The overall experience has been a really positive one. While it was a bit of a challenge making time for my learning, it was time well spent and completely relevant to my career goals.

I NEED YOUR HELP – 16 DAYS OF ACTIVISM AT RX CHILDREN’S HOSPITAL

Last week I had a massive wake up call.

Up until then, I used to think that  daily life in my world was tough and a big struggle trying to juggle my busy schedule. I honestly feel like giving that Hayley from last week, a big old slap.

After I visited the Red Cross Hospital, my perspective has really been shifted and I am honestly so very thankful for every little thing in my life right now – even Aidan and Alyssa’s worst tantrum!

For many children in South Africa, life is tough. And when I say tough, I mean they have to live in an environment of persasive violence. This violence alters the very fabric of their childhood.

The Child Protection Office at the Red Cross War Memorial Children’s Hospital sees an average of 40 to 50 cases child abuse every single month. That’s close to (or in many cases over) 600 cases a year. 600 stories of empty childhoods.
