Feeling Mellow Yellow

A few weeks ago, my hubby and I decided to take a little ride to Rockport, MA so we can help a local restaurant in TAKEOUT ONLY times (mandatory due to COVID), sit on a beach and enjoy the tranquility of the waves while eating our grub. It was a 75 degree day out and being near the water, it made the weather absolutely perfect. One of those days where you could wear a thin jacket and be comfortable.

For that day, I was feeling all the sun and wanted to portray that sunshiny vibe with my outfit. I wore lightweight denim overalls  (is that what it’s called now or a jumper….I don’t know, either way I rocked it) from Forever21Plus http://www.forever21.com, with a tube top type bra but had to double up because that was a little see thru and I didn’t think it appropriate to show of my girls to a quaint little fishermen town like Rockport. I threw on my light, fun and color block jacket from MVGIRLRU, busted out with my colorful and funky platform shoes from YRU and my bright furry fanny pack both purchased from http://dollskill.com, added my teal dangly earrings that I actually got for free from another online purchase and topped it off with my pastel ombré sunnies from http://sunglassspot.com. The perfect outfit for the perfect day! Side note: all the restaurants were closed on Sunday, so no food,  but we still enjoyed the scenery. What is your perfect day getaway? 

Rock the GUAC🤘🥑 Burger

One of the ‘good fats’ allowed with Keto is AVOCADOS and let me tell you, I looovvvveee me some avocado. Not only does it help with your Macros for that fat intake, but it is extremely beneficial to your health because it contains a bunch of vitamins, dietary fiber, potassium, can even lower cholesterol and has nutritional factors for your skin and digestive tract. No wonder it is considered a superfood and a must in the Keto lifestyle. Like I’ve mentioned before in the Keto Mantra, (under my post ‘In the Know with Keto’) I eat one avocado a day….1/2 for two meals. And yesterday, my husband made guacamole which contained everything we can eat…onions, tomatoes, cilantro, etc., so it was only right that I ate some for lunch. For protein, I ‘cooked’ a Beyond Burger (not homemade), a plant based (meatless) burger, that gives you the protein you need for your allowed daily meal intake. It was about four oz. I added a piece of pepper jack cheese cuz I was feeling a lil spicy yesterday so it just matched my mood lol. I then added a scoop of my hubby’s guac on top and then for a little more fat and protein, I added three pieces of extra crispy bacon….(yes that’s how I like my bacon…don’t judge me….the crispier the better IMO) and voilà. Lunch is served!!
