Book Review: Chia Vitality
Hey everyone! So today I have a book review to share with you guys.
The book is called Chia Vitality and it's by Janie Hoffman (Founder and CEO of Mamma Chia).
This book is all about the Chia seed. I liked this book overall. It had a few good recipes inside it that I would like to try using the chia seed. :) Some things included in this book are: flexible meal plans using chia seeds, yoga routines, and meditation course. It tells you everything you need to know about the chia seed: where to buy it, how to store it, and how to use chia seeds in cooking. I recommend this book to anyone who's interested in getting a healthier diet. Overall, I would give this book 4 stars. :)
If you haven't ever tried a chia seed, you definitely should. You don't actually really taste them, and they can be added to pretty much anything, smoothies, soup, salad! :)
If you're interested in purchasing this book you can buy them here:

My Life 1
Hey everyone!
So I realized the other day, I haven't really told you what I've been up to lately, and I think now is a good time to start!
I have been incredibly busy lately! School, books, puppy preparation, shopping, American Heritage Girls, P.E class, so many things.
So last Sunday we decided to get a puppy! Now, this was not planned at all, but when we saw her video on the shelter's facebook page we just fell in love with her!! We have 2 cats, and one of them is very protective over his territory...so yeah, it's going to take some getting use to for him. Here's a picture of her:
She is growing SO fast. It's crazy! I can tell a difference in her size in just a week's time. She's a labrador retriever mix and she's suppose to grow really quickly. :/
I'm so excited though! All they have to do is spay her before we can take her home! And they're hoping to fit her in tomorrow! :D
So for American Heritage Girls (it's kind of a Christian version of 4H) we're suppose to take in a 2 layer cake this Tuesday to decorate. So me and my siblings (I have on younger sister, and one younger brother) are all going over to one of my best friends house and I'm going to make a cake with her and my siblings are going to hang out with her siblings! So much fun! :)
I love going over to her house. I always have so much fun with her!
So I guess I best get going!
Have a blessed Sabbath everyone!
~Katie
P.S
Does anyone like the idea of me doing a Christmas series of sorts (pictures, stories, crafts, things like that) ? I would probably start it this sometime in December. ;)
