Cathy Unfiltered

So its official, A Boy and His Mom is now Cathy Unfiltered. This is not to say, I won’t be talking about him or including him, the focus won’t be on “the boy”. But truth be told, a lot of times I felt I needed to write more of what I thought people wanted to hear and less of what I actually wanted to say. Sometimes when people hear the word unfiltered, they think rude, crude, and obnoxious.

Some days I feel like I know what’s going on but a lot of the days I still feel like such a newbie. I’ve often heard people say they can’t understand how people make it their full time job. But over the years, you blog/social media will evolve and you may want to push it in an entirely new direction, change your logo, change your name to make it more cohesive to the person you are now. So after these 5 years, I have grown a lot as a blogger but am looking forward to the next 5 years to see how things will grow and change.

Who would have thought I would ever be excited about Brussels sprouts? However, I find most recipes feed 4 or more, and I either end up eating leftovers for days, or wasting a lot if I don’t end up enjoying it. I happened across this recipe on a TikTok by Halle Burns and decided to give it a try. Brussels sprouts are one my favorite veggies, so her recipe looked so good.
