Hello

I'm Larissa. You can usually find me sporting a wide-brimmed hat, with a baby on my back.

Do you wear glasses? I have really terrible vision

Do you wear glasses? I have really terrible vision, and ran out of contacts last week so I’ve been stuck wearing these. 😭 I’ve had glasses since 2nd grade! .
.
Anyway, here’s what I really wore yesterday. Trying to be better about sharing my every day style outfits in real time. Anyway, off to write about how we are trying to budget better in 2020! 👍🏻

Seriously, these vegan, refined-sugar free, chickpea blondies inspired by @dadaeats are phenomenal. They didn’t last a day in our house! I sort of messed with her recipe just to fit what I had on hand in our pantry. They still turned out soooo yummy! Here’s what I did:
.
Ingredients:
* 1 can chickpeas drained + rinsed
* 1/3 cup cup peanut butter * 1/4 cup maple syrup
* 1/4 cup coconut sugar
* 1 tsp vanilla extract
* 5 tbsp @onedegreeorganics sprouted wheat flour
* 1/4 tsp salt
* 1/4 tsp baking powder
* 1/4 tsp baking soda
* 1/2 cup vegan chocolate chips (I like @enjoylifefoods)
.
.
Make it:
Put all ingredients except chocolate chips in food processor. Pulse until creamy. Add in chocolate chips. Transfer to a dish, bake at 350 F for 25 minutes!

Since there’s lots of new faces around here, I figured I should do a little intro post!
.
I’m Larissa! I grew up in Long Beach, CA. I’m a wife to my college sweetheart, J (that handsome Jim Halpert doppelgänger you see in my pics) and mama to two beautiful girls. ✨ I don’t show them on here much, for their protection, but you may see little hands here and there. They are my heart and soul. ✨
.
I taught Kindergarten for three years before staying home with my girls. I’ve been a SAHM for almost five years, and I just now feel like I’m okay at it. 😂 My husband and I are both coffee lovers. ☕️ And we are a #homeschool family. We are just beginning our journey, but are both passionate about making these early, formative years a gentle and rich experience for our girls. 💯
.
I’m passionate about feeding my family whole, plant-based foods. I love cooking now but truly had to teach myself. I ate a very typical (unhealthy) Western diet as a child, and changed it completely after having my firstborn. I love exposing my children to different types of nutrient-dense foods and healthy cooking. We do eat our share of yummy vegan sweets! .
For me, getting dressed is art. Every time I put an outfit together, whether it’s casual, athleisure, date night, it’s a fun experience for me. I love sharing about slow fashion particularly because it’s an industry trying to reverse the damage that fast fashion has done to our beautiful earth. 🌎 oh, and I LOVE hats! 👒
.
We are a reading family. 📚 On average, we read to our girls about 4-5 times a day. Usually there are several books read at each time! We always have a chapter book to read to our 4.5 year old and we rotate picture books weekly with library trips every Wednesday. For us, reading - connections and quality time. 😌
.
I am a gentle parenting advocate. As a product of an abusive childhood, I am truly passionate about respectful parenting. It’s something I work so hard at, and love talking with other families about. .
I love relationships and community. I’m an extroverted introvert - meaning, I love having “my people” but crave time to go inward and reflect! 🌾 .
YOUR TURN! Tell me something about you! 💫 #larissawears

What are you reading currently? I’ve been readin

What are you reading currently? I’ve been reading so much non-fiction lately. Do you like non-fiction? I used to read only novels but I can’t seem to find any I want to devote time to. If you have recommendations I’m all ears! ❤️ .
