RDtipoftheday's Friday Favorites: March Edition

Welcome to RDtipoftheday's favorites from March. This is blog series that highlights of some of the best blog posts I've found and my favorite things from this month.

Cookbooks
I've been loving my new cookbooks. I received several cookbooks as Christmas and birthday gifts (thanks family!). Here are some of my favorites.

Books
One of my 2016 resolutions is to read more. So far this year, I've read two books For the Love and Interrupted by Jen Hatmaker.

Cooking
When I'm stressed, I find that I benefit from rest and a creative outlet. Cooking and baking are generally my outlet. So, I've been cooking and baking quite a bit.


I am loving this salad with spinach, goat cheese, blueberries, and almonds. I've been eating it for lunch; it has been on repeat. So yummy!


I made pizza dough. Look for a post with pizza dough recipe coming soon.


In the Spring, I always look forward to eating King Cake. Here's my easy King Cake recipe. Enjoy!


Easter is a time for celebration. It's a time to remember Jesus' sacrifice on the cross. When I think of Easter, I remember going to church and gathering with family after church. I remember celebrating forgiveness and all that Easter entails with family. We gathered and ate ham, rolls, and my Aunt always had deviled eggs as an appetizer. Here are my two takes on deviled eggs: bacon, egg, & cheese deviled eggs and Tex-Mex deviled eggs. Click on the links for recipes and nutrition facts.

Podcasts
I have been listening to a new-to-me podcast. It's called The Happy Hour with Jamie Ivey. I have been listening to about 1-2 episodes per day. I usually listen on my commute or while cleaning house. I've started at the beginning, and I'm on episode 50ish. I'm loving it! Check it out. It's free. She posts one episode per week but sometimes there are bonus episodes!
