When I finally did a social media post to let my community know about Just Add Water and that I was introducing it to the rest of world during Oscars week. I had such an amazing and supportive response from everyone, I was honestly surprised and overwhelmed with gratitude.

5. 3 Apps That You Use The Most
Apps (other than standard texts, emails, news, IG):
- Notes (on Apple Iphone) – Im constantly writing, taking notes, creating mental recipes and it allllll goes here first
- Lightroom from Adobe (I love the Adobe suite of apps for photo editing and I like to give each photo a little extra love with a slight touch up with Lightroom)
- I’ve been nerding out on Lumosity lately, which is a brain-training app with games and tests;
Also, I love meditation apps and bounce between them, but currently I’m back to Deepak & Oprah’s meditation app, where I’ve purchased a few different collections that really resonate with me. I listen to it every day.

1. Favourite Exercise
My absolute favorite exercise is the pull-up. Not only can it help to build strong arms and back, but it is also a great way to tone and strengthen the core. If you are just getting started, you can use a chair to help assist you until you can build up to a full pull-up.
2. Favourite Health Foods
It has to be prunes. This sweet dried fruit is just so versatile. I love to enjoy them alone as a sweet treat, but I also puree them to use in replacement of added sugar into some of my favorite baked goods, like cookies. Eating 5-6 prunes per day can also help to promote healthy bones, and with a family history of osteoporosis, I definitely try to help my bones through diet as much as I can.
3. Favourite 2018 Social Media Memory
It has to be my memory of creating and sharing my Chocolate Chip Carrot Muffin recipe. The day I attempted to film this recipe both of my boys were dressed in bunny costumes, we had carrots all over the kitchen, and my realtor called to say someone was coming to see my house in 20 minutes. It was complete chaos, but we made the muffins and the video, shared the story of how it was made, and had some much positive feedback on how this was just an example of how you can make time for health, no matter how crazy life gets! It was also such a great opportunity to hear so many funny stories from my followers on similar situations they had to deal with when trying to feed healthy food to their family.
4. One 2019 Fitness Goal
To continue to find new ways to make fitness fun not just for me, but for my whole family. To me, fitness is a way of life and I want to make sure my children understand the benefits, but also the enjoyment in moving their bodies every day.
For instance, this is how we spend naptime: https://www.instagram.com/p/Bhptu3uhmZb/?taken-by=erinpalinskiwade
And this is how my family likes to hang out: https://www.instagram.com/p/Bna-3I_AXi8/?taken-by=erinpalinskiwade
5. 3 Apps That You Use The Most
Instagram- I just love sharing new recipes, health tips, and fitness ideas with my followers. The IG community is so supportive and I have made so many strong connections through it!
Stop Motion Pro – I just started creating stop motion recipes videos (which I will share soon) this has been such an amazing app that allows me to bring my creations to life and provide simple instruction on how to create my favorite foods
ABC Mouse – OK so this one isn’t for me so much, but it is such a great tool as a mom. If I need to get something done or fit in a quick workout, I know I can let my sons use ABC mouse for a few minutes and they will have a great time, but also be learning so many educational things.
