In the original, it’s snappy and sharp. In the slowed version, it’s a drawl. It sounds less like they're annoyed by the haters and more like they've already won the game and are just bored by the drama.
When you deepen the vocals, the girls' harmonies—which are already legendary—take on a haunting, almost choral quality.
You want that "late-night drive through the city" atmosphere. The Verdict
By lowering the tempo, the song stops being a defensive response to gossip and starts feeling like a confident, slow-motion strut. It moves away from "pop" and inches closer to Lyrical Impact In the original, it’s snappy and sharp
The slowed and deeper edit of "Wasabi" strips away the glitter of 2010s pop and replaces it with a heavy, magnetic grit. It proves that a great song isn't just about the beat—it’s about the attitude. Even at half-speed, the message is clear: Keep on talking, because it only makes me look better.
There’s a reason this version thrives on TikTok and "POV" playlists. It’s the ultimate soundtrack. It’s the song you play when: You’re doing a heavy, dramatic makeup look.
A brand new recipe and video for you as I continue my mini Summer-series about making the Ultimate S’mores!
Hi! I hope you had a wonderful Holiday last week (maybe some of you even stretched it all the way through the weekend!) If you follow me on Instagram, (especially insta-stories) you would have seen our family adventure through the heartland of America this last week!
We got to spend the Fourth of July in Pawhuska, Oklahoma where we had the full experience with our dear friend Betsy and her family. If you scroll down HERE, there is a beautiful picture of the girls in their Fourth of July duds.
Then we road tripped all the way to St Louis, Missouri so that we could spend a few days supporting Pia as she battled it out at Nationals for Fencing. It was pretty nuts, but sometimes I can’t believe how tough this girl is- like so much stronger than I ever was (and maybe still am.) She placed 18th in the nation for her age group (Y10) and qualified for Y12, which was a big deal in itself. Now I will quit geeking out on fencing and tell you that it was amazing to get home and that on Sunday night we hosted the whole family for dinner.
When I say whole family, I mean over 20 people with my and Pete’s immediate family. So, a lot of people.
And guess what we had for dessert????
You’ve got it! S’mores!!!!
Well at least for the kids (and kids at heart) we had homemade marshmallows (we have quite a stash right now), chocolate bars of every variety and last but not least: homemade graham crackers that are vegan and gluten-free! Check out the recipe below and the video above and I hope you enjoy!

Prep time:
Cook time:
Total time:
Serves: 16
Ingredients
1 cup all gluten-free all-purpose baking flour (I use bobs red mill brand)
1 cup brown rice flour
½ cup brown sugar
1 teaspoon baking powder
½ teaspoon baking soda
½ teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon cinnamon
½ cup vegan butter, chilled and cubed
2 tablespoons water
2 tablespoons agave
1 tablespoon mollases
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
½ teaspoons cinnamon
2 teaspoons sugar
Instructions
Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper. In food processor, add flour blend, brown sugar, cinnamon, baking powder, baking soda, salt and butter. Pulse until blended and resembles cornmeal. Add water, agave, molasses and vanilla. Blend until dough comes together. Add an extra tablespoon of water, if needed.
Place dough onto lined baking sheet. Place another piece of parchment paper on top of dough and roll out, until even thickness. Dough should reach to the edges of the pan. Using a pizza cutter, score the dough into desired squares/rectangles. Prick dough with fork in an even pattern. Sprinkle with the sugar and cinnamon blend.
Bake crackers for 15-17 minutes, or until edges begin to brown. Remove from oven. While still warm and on the pan, carefully cut crackers along score-lines with sharp knife. Allow to cool on pan for 10 minutes. Cool crackers completely on cooling rack. Store in airtight container.

Honey is not vegan. Be fair, be vegan. http://www.HowDoIGoVegan.com
I used agave not honey.
I cannot wait to try these. My son is gfdf (he has autism) and it is so hard to find him snacks he can eat, thanks!
These are super good!!! I used 1/4 cup white sugar and 1/4 cup brown sugar to ensure a crispy cookie. They are so flavorful!
Thank you Denise!
