Buffalo Shredded Crockpot Chicken

Why is it that when you don’t want to adult at all you have to adult the hardest? Why! This weekend was far from relaxing and I had to work all day yesterday. After working all day yesterday all I wanted to do was go home, make this recipe and dinner and chill. Nope. That didn’t…

Chocolate Chip Cookies
These cookies are bomb. Seriously, I want them for breakfast, lunch, dinner and then again for breakfast. No, they are not paleo because I use oat flour.
