I interrupt this food feed for a frog that was nestled in my palm tree! I was cutting off a dying branch and came within a centimeter of cutting off its head🤦‍♀️ It’s living off the moisture of the palm and staying cool and dry. And high enough off the ground that Spritz can’t eat it😹 There’s also a family of geckos living in my bedroom...it’s a good thing I spent my entire childhood catching and making homes for frogs and lizards, otherwise I’d be buying moving boxes right about now🤣 #florida #floridalife #frogs #nature #naturephotography #reptiles #outdoors #photography @natgeo #sunday #sundayvibes #weekend #mostlyhealthychef

Weekend grazing goals🤩 These were one of the passed apps I made to go with the #grazingtable because that wasn’t already enough food🤷‍♀️ @mamagsstpete baguette slices with smoked salmon, creme fraiche, everything bagel spice, cucumber, dill & tobiko. Creme fraiche can be swapped with cream cheese, scallions or chives instead of dill, if you’re #glutenfree replace the crostini with cucumber slices, and the tobiko is just because that’s how I roll✨#weekendgoals #snack #fingerfood #appetizers #bitesize #smokedsalmon #caviar #crostini #partyfood #food #foodphotography #privatechef #chef #cheflife #entertaining #tampa #tampaeats #tampachefs #mostlyhealthychef

“I will lift my eyes even in the pain Above all the lies, I know You can make a way I have seen giants fall, I have seen mountains move I have seen waters part because of You I remember, I remember You have always been faithful to me I remember, I remember Even when my own eyes could not see You were there, always there I can't stop thinking about... Your goodness, goodness...” And my army of prayer warriors and family and friends who keep checking in on me and asking for updates, encouraging me and loving me from afar, even as I keep distancing myself from life more and more. So here goes... Wednesday I got a series of hydrodissections of the nerves in my neck to treat the pain and headaches that have been near constant for over a year now. I felt great, sat down, and all the pain came flooding back. We’ve figured out that the surgeries to remove my tailbone have thrown off my spinal cord to the point that every time I sit I get extreme pain from the shoulders up. So today, my most amazing doctor is going to do a series of injections with BPC 157 to fix the disfunction that is keeping me in pain. And I know that in His perfect way and perfect time, God is going to heal me, and I just keep thinking about His goodness, to allow me to get this cutting-edge medical care from this team @bioresetmedical who have become family and who won’t give up on me. And how through all the times that I only see my footsteps in the sand it’s because He is carrying me...even when when my faith falters, and I start to question and doubt and want to give up. He has shown His faithfulness every step of the way as I’ve lived in pain the past 16 years, and whatever happens today, He’s got me right where I am supposed to be✨ “I can feel when my mind starts to creep and to doubt On the days when the strength in my heart's giving out There's a light but it hides from me deep in the cloud There's a voice that I need but I don't hear a sound Ever running to what I can't see Fighting out of all my unbelief Father, even then my song will be I know You will always carry me It's inevitable...” ❤️ @lauren_daigle #faith #healing #inspiration #chronicpain #regenerativemedicine
