She Moved To Texas

-

 Hi everyone, Amelia here today.

You might have seen the list of links on our side bar:


Well one of those blogs is She Moved to Texas, a blog about Love, Loss & Horses. I just recently discovered this blog in late March, and since have followed it continuously. 


Lauren Mauldin’s blog is so inspiring to equestrians and (ehem) normal people alike. She has a dappled grey gelding named Poet, and you can follow her through the course of their relationship in a journey of joy and pain. This blog has so many stories that make you say ‘Wait a minute, I’m not the only one’, stories that make you laugh, and stories that make you cry. 

It’s so inspiring to read about a fellow equestrian that has suffered so much and still finds refuge in the world of horses. Lauren’s blog is so amazing and real that when I finish reading an article I just have to sit for a moment and just say ‘wow’. 

I definitely suggest reading Letter To My Younger Equestrian Self, as it gave me such amazing insight into the true world of horses and shows us that life isn’t perfect - that even horses aren’t perfect - but we just need to keep on keeping on. It shows that if you do what you love and love what you do then you don’t need to worry. That pain and suffering are a part of life, and yeah, it might hurt like heck, but you can’t do anything but keep living. This letter shows that the biggest blessings come in the most insignificant ways, and that you can’t always plan whats going to happen. So yeah, this article made me cry. And I 100% recommend it to equestrians everywhere.


So in conclusion, I 10/10 recommend reading this blog She Moved to Texas, and guarantee that it’ll make you laugh, make you cry, and overall just give you a better perspective on life as a human being in love with horses.

Thank you for reading everybody, 

Sincerely,

Amelia

    Thank you for the nice words about my blog! It's been a great experience writing it for all of these years, and I'm enjoying updating with my new horse and what's going on these days :)

 Hello! We are starting a new series - the 30 day challenge. Every day for 30 days we will post following this schedule -  I got this idea from Annika Lorraine  (click the link to check out her blog!!) Make sure you check out her 30 day challenge as well :) Day 1 - Write ten facts about you!  -   I used to own a pet hedgehog named Boo - unfortunately he died just over a year ago  -  I published a book through NaNoWriMo (National Novel Writing Month) when I was 9. It has an ISBN number, but it isn’t for sale anywhere - I own the only two copies that exist  I do ballet, and have done it for most of my life. My favorite role was Clara in the Nutcracker (!!!) - I didn’t get a dog until I was almost 11 - we got Luna Rae in March of 2019 and I love her so so so so much! She is already 2!!!  -  I’ve been to 36+ states!

Naomi’s Easy Gluten Free Cookies

-
Ok, so sorry Amelia, but Naomi has a cookie recipe TO DIE FOR that actually DOES NOT include flour! I know, right? (its a lot easier then Amelia's, too.) So they are technically gluten-free, but you heard it from me you seriously will not be able to tell the difference. Let’s get baking! (hey, amelia here. just saying if you love the taste of cookie dough, my cookies taste like that but are healthier and slightly different) Ingredients: 1 cup peanut butter  🥜 🧈 3/4 cup sugar 1 egg 1/2 tsp baking soda 1/4 tsp salt 1 cup choc. chips Preheat the oven to 350 degrees   Fahrenheit. Mix the first 5 ingredients with a wooden spoon an add choc chips.  Get hands damp so no dough sticks to your hands. Get a baking sheet. Make small balls (as large as you want the cookies to be since these don’t spread as they bake as much as regular) MAKE SURE YOU HAVE PARCHMENT PAPER UNDERNEATH!  Then, put them in the oven until golden brown (about 18-20 minutes). Enjoy! Please comment dow
