The Mad Hatter!☕

-

 Hey everyone! Sorry, it's been so long since I last posted. My last 2 weeks have been pretty hectic, especially with school and volleyball.

Anyway... Last Sunday, my sister and I went to The Mad Hatter with my dad! (daddy-daughter date)

The Mad Hatter is a very old house in Anoka. The house was getting pretty worn down, so 20 years ago, it was restored into a restaurant and teahouse!

This post isn't a review, but just some pictures I took while I was there!

This is what it looks like from the outside.

Super pretty!





The tea I had was AMAZING! it was called "Devine Temple". It was a green tea, and had apricot, pineapple, mango, papaya, and strawberry!




For brunch, I had a Green Goddess Grilled Cheese. I'm not going to type out what's in it, because I took a picture ;) I also added bacon, because everything is better with bacon.

And for my side, I got chicken wild rice soup.




Both of them were absolutely AMAZING!!! The grilled cheese was the best I have ever had in my life!








For dessert, I had what was called "a gigantic slice of celebration cake", which is actually 2 slices.
It's a white cake layered with lemon curd, and blueberry lemon lavender jam, with buttercream frosting.



And if you couldn't guess, the cake was AMAZING!








I really love The Mad Hatter, and if you're ever around Anoka... I highly recommend that you try it!

Dill Harvest!

Wednesday, July 10th, 2020, 8:27 AM - Drying Day- Hey everyone! If you've seen either of my Garden Tour Videos, ( 1 ,  2 , or 3 ) you'll know that I have a garden box, that contains a patch of dill. And the time has come to harvest some of it. If you're not familiar with dill, it's a buttery herb, that has a warm grassy aroma, with hints of lemon and anise, and a very fresh-tasting flavor. It looks very similar to fennel but has a different flavor profile. It has yellow flowers, that grow in many short stalks, coming from the top of the stem. This is where eventually the dill seeds will form. They have a very strong flavor, that's a little more like anise. Dill weed/leaves are very feathery and grow at random points along the length of the stem. One of the most common uses of dill is one of my favorite foods. Pickles! Now, back to the point of this post ;) I harvested some of the seed bunches, along with some of the leaves. Even though they d

Healthy Living- Paused!!! ⏸

 Hey all! I know this post is not what you were expecting, but it had to be made. I'm sure you've noticed that I haven't posted since February... And it's July! I'm in the middle of my Healthy Living series, but I have to put it on hold for a bit. I lost some material that I need for week 3 and week 4, therefore I can't get the posts out to you guys. I was trying to figure out a solution and then I realized that there are many other things I could have been posting about in the last 4 months! (can't believe it took me this long)  So hopefully I will be posting more soon, but it won't be Healthy Living for a while. I really wanted to get this series out, so thanks for your understanding! -Jacey

I know it's been way more than 1 week, but I've had a hectic 2 months, and I'm on vacation right now. So here we go, "week" 2. Tip #2 Find good subs. (substitutes)    I should probably start by defining exactly what I mean by "subs". Basically, they are healthier alternatives to less-healthy foods. But there a few things that you need to be aware of before you start. Finding good subs is an important key to eating and living a healthier life. There are so many things that people love, but have a hard time giving up. This is why it's one of my top tips for making a change. The first step is to determine the first couple of foods that you are going to find subs for. Then, you actually have to find the subs. In my next post, I will talk more about specific ingredients to look out for, but I will cover some major ones today. The point of finding subs is to make the jump to a healthy lifestyle, easier. Slowly as you get used to different foods, you will b
