Hello! I’m Erica Lea. I’m a mom of three living in northern Minnesota (AKA The Frozen North). Here on Buttered Side Up I share recipes I have tried & modified (to be a tad healthier) and found to be delicious. My main focus is recipes with a healthy touch. You’ll find that I like to substitute organic unrefined ingredients quite often. But you won’t find that I skimp on good, natural fat. Butter > margarine.

This stuff looks great, I'll have to try the brown butter chocolate, sounds dangerously good 🙂 Also, I love the Newman's Own mints. Once their in your mouth, you can't tell they're healthy. 🙂 They taste great, and really do leave your mouth feeling freshened.
Happy birthday, Erica! I turned 40 on January 8.
Hi Erica ~ Happy belated birthday! Thanks for showing us all of the goodies; so many of them I've never tried. I'd also never heard of Thrive Market, but because of you, I've set up an account with them! I'm curious as to how you find all of these unique websites? And by the way, I'll be 57 in October! ~ Laurie in California 🙂
Everything looks delicious…especially all the unique dark chocolate! My favorite kind of gift. An immersion blender is a great gift as well…I had one before we moved back from overseas, but didn't get to bring it. I have a thrifted one now that I only use for soap-making but would love a brand new stainless steel one for cooking. Happy Birthday! And I'll be 25 in the summer.
