Can't Live Without It.

Happy Friday to you!

We're down south on a mini babymoon for Memorial day weekend and lovin evey second of this beautiful weather.

Reid and I are so mad at ourselves. We packed every single thing we own just about, except for this kitchen gadget. There's nothing better than sitting on the beach, stuffing your face with fresh fruit and cocktails. No cocktails for me this year...but Lucie's worth it!

We picked up this little guy a couple weekends ago, competently on a whim, and pretty much have been obsessed ever sense. Even though I think preggos aren't supposed to eat large amounts of pineapple, I have been craving it so hard. Moderation is key....blah blah blah.

Anywho, it makes prep work a cinch, keeps all those yummy juices in one place, gives you the cutest pineapple shell and is super easy to clean. "Dishwasher safe" is music to my ears!

Grab one and you'll wonder why you never knew this existed before. Oh, and try out this smoothie recipe below. I'm sorry in advance...once you make this, you will be hooked!

1 cup of fresh pineapple
1 scoop of Greek yogurt
2/3 cup of coconut, almond, or reg milk (or ice cream, calcium is calcium)
1/2 cup of pineapple juice (I just dump whatever is hanging around in the bottom of the shell)
and a handful of ice.
If your feeling crazy, add some dark rum....

Throw all of this into your blender, mix and enjoy!

Happy Memorial weekend y'all!
Be safe, have fun and drink a cocktail, or two, for me!

  2. I love it. I craved Pineapple my entire pregnancy with my little girl. I stopped eating it around 30 weeks just to be safe. I did eat it at 39 weeks when I started having contractions but they wouldn't admit me to L&D just yet ... low and behold 12 hours later my water broke.

  3. I never heard of pineapple being a no-no for mamas-to-be...luckily I never really craved it when I was pregnant! This gadget looks awesome (and mocktail-inspiring for sure!)

  4. Sometimes I avoid buying pineapple even though I love it just because it's such a pain to cut! This could change that! Have fun at the beach!
