They seem to be sprouting up everywhere. Healthy doughnuts! Baked not fried!
I can’t lie, I’m a little skeptical. Really all that it means by healthy is that it’s baked. And I mean, aren’t doughnuts supposed to be the epitome of artery clogging heart attack inducing melt in your mouth deliciousness?
But I can’t remain a skeptic for too long now. I keep pinning these healthy donuts, so it’s only a matter of time before I make one of these bad boys.
To be honest, I’m probably only trying to remain a skeptic so that I don’t bake them and end up eating the entire dozen, convincing myself that it’s ok because they’re healthy.
I’ll let you know how it goes.
Have you made healthy doughnuts? Are they just as good as the real thing?

Go ahead and call me crazy cat lady, but I am seriously considering making a mini no sew teepee to cover Lucy’s litter box. We can make our bathrooms super beautiful so why not do the same for our kitties? (Yes…I’m insane).
Have you made any projects from Pinterest lately?

I’m a pretty lucky girl. The mister loves to experiment and mix all sorts of drinks. The results are 99% of the time absolutely delicious.
Lately he’s really been into making cocktails with blended watermelon and I have to say I don’t mind one bit.
Three different bases, one fruity theme. Each recipe serves two. Pick your poison.
- 1/2 cup watermelon and 2 small slices
- 12 ounces prosecco
- Mint to garnish
Blend watermelon and place 2 ounces of blended watermelon in each champagne glass. Top the rest with prosecco. Garnish with mint and a slice of watermelon.
- 3/4 cup watermelon
- 3 ounces gin
- 1 ounce simple syrup
- 1/2 a lime
- sparkling water
- water and ice
- rosemary to garnish
Fill a cocktail shaker with ice, gin, simple syrup, juice of 1/2 a lime, and a splash of water. Shake shake shake and fill your glasses. Top with 3 ounces blended water melon and sparkling water. Garnish with a sprig of rosemary.
- 1/2 cup watermelon
- 3 ounces bourbon
- 1 ounce simple syrup
- bitters
- ice
- lime
Place watermelon at the bottom of each glass and muddle with the back of a spoon. Fill cocktail shaker with ice and add bourbon, simple syrup, several dashes bitters, and shake. Pour on top of muddled watermelon and squeeze a quarter lime into each glass. Garnish with a lime wedge.
Do you prefer prosecco, gin, bourbon, or something else entirely?
I’m a gin girl myself
