Play With Your Food






We had a blast last week in my children's class at Valley Natural Foods Co-op! I called it, "Fruitopia!" We made fish, turtles, octopus, peacocks, and hedgehogs out of fruit and a few other random ingredients! You can easily do this with your kids at home. This is all you need: 

 Food Items: 

 Kiwis
Grapes
Apples
Blueberries
Nut Butter 
Dark Chocolate Chips
Pears 
Olives 
Oranges
Carrots 
Cream Cheese 

 Other Supplies: 

 Toothpicks 
Knife 
Plates
Let them get messy and creative! The best part is eating what they make! 
Be sure to follow me on Facebook to be the first to hear about all my upcoming events and classes!

Self Love Sisters-Women's Activity Group




There are very few women who truly feel comfortable in their skin. The thoughts and feelings we have about ourselves and appearances can often make or break us IF we allow it. This group will meet regularly to discuss and share openly our experiences and trials with each of our own body images. We will also be scheduling fun activities/events/seminars to support self-love and growth. Think wellness classes, cooking, nutrition, art, self exploration, coffee shops, yoga, fitness, movement, music, movies, jewelry, nature walks, makeup lessons, meditations, and more! Anything to do with self love and personal growth!! My intention is to help others discover the root cause for each of the set backs we experience in order to heal and free ourselves of these limitations. A group that encourages acceptance, being 100% genuine and nothing but your true self! 

If you live in the Minneapolis please come and join us! Here is link to our Meet Up group where I will be posting all the events and activities:

Jackie- Uncensored

I keep seeing these types of posts on Facebook so I thought I would give you the chance to get to know me on a deeper level! LOL! 

 10 Things You May Not Know About Me:

 1. I'm crafty and creative- I love art; all kinds! I make up-cycled jewelry to wear and to sell.  I usually make homemade gifts and when I get creative it looks like Martha Stewart threw up all over! LOL! That is the only time you will see a mess; otherwise I am an OCD neat freak! I fluff the pillows on the couch in my office after my clients leave...
Here is my pumpkin I painted for Halloween! And I'm in the process of making a holiday decoration to hang on the wall behind my desk. 


2. I am afraid of drains... any type and size... bathroom, kitchen, swimming pools, you name it! My younger brother got his toe caught in the baby pool drain when we were little and I have been scared to death of them ever since! 
3.When I get excited I start talking really, really loud! And I have a unique laugh that everyone notices! I was very shy when I was a little girl. I sat with my older brother on the bus so this one girl would not pull my hair and make me cry! I was a mommy’s girl and didn't even like staying at my grandparent’s house. Now you can’t get me to shut up! :) I have become quite the people person! Making up for all those years I was quiet! 


 4. I like driving 4-wheelers, any type of ATV, jet skis, snowmobiles, golf carts, and etc . I am kind of a psycho and people do not like to ride with me! :) I would like to drive a race car before I die!  I am a bad driver.. have gotten 8 speeding tickets, 3 warnings, ticket for failure to stop at a stop sign, and got one  a few years ago before Christmas because I "turned left onto Lyndale Ave between 7 and 9 AM." It was 8:50 am… a TRAP! I also got a ticket on my bicycle in Minneapolis that is now on my driving record... (this story is really funny! Ask me about it!!) I have gotten 7 flat tires in my life total! STUPID CAR! HA! :) 
5.I read all of the time. I get my love of books from my MOM! :) 




6.My weakness is chocolate covered nuts- peanuts or almonds!
7. I want to have kids someday, but am deathly scared to gain all that weight. (because of my past eating disorder) I always thought it would be fun to be pregnant the same time as one of my friends. Kind of like Father of the Bride 2.. Twins also run in my family.
8. I wake up every day with the mission that I am changing and saving lives. That is my purpose for getting out of bed. My favorite thing to do is make people smile with random texts and photos!


9. I have been so broke that I had to pawn off some of my belongings to pay my rent. 
10. I'm also a part time model. When I first moved to Minneapolis  I decided to dabble in this and have loved it ever since! I have done the most random gigs- pillow infomercial, liquor and beer promotions, bodypainting, model for bear scent, clothing photoshoots, runway shows, hair shows, and anything crazy you can think of I have probably done it! 


Don't judge after you read this! LOL! I just wanted you to know I am a human being also! Plenty of flaws and imperfections, but that is what makes us all VIP's! ;-) 

 Be Well!
