Sometimes, alright more often than not, my brain is a revolving door of thoughts, ideas, random ramblings and senseless mutterings, with extra emphasis on the last two. There are days I wish I could hit the mute button, and then I remember that’s why I feverishly write lists, practice yoga and meditate. Since I skipped the majority of those…
Candied Roasted Almond Recipe
I want to talk about nuts today. The kind you want in your mouth. Often. The kind of nuts you can’t help but blindly grab over and over again with the full intention of tossing them down your throat. On the regular. The kind of nuts which make afternoon snacking a source of delight. On a…
Simple Mills Gluten Free Chocolate Chip Cookies
I am a gluten slayer. It’s true. If you put a loaf of bread in front of me, odds are I’m going to eat it with a healthy slab of butter and a side of jelly because gluten is my jam. I was raised on the stuff, in a time when Celiac disease didn’t really exist or if…
Pearls of Wisdom
I consider myself to be an expert in many fields. Oh and by expert, I mean self-created validation. There’s no schooling or really anything to support my conclusion, aside from own ego. A contrary presentation of all things factual and scientific – hello boring- has not held back my own creative imagination; not when it comes to wisdom….
Currently: January 2015
I have no introduction for you today. How’s that for witty banter? Oh well, I’m pretty sure they say honesty is the best policy anyway. Besides these Currently posts are chock full of words. Who needs a few more at the beginning? Not me; at least not today anyway. With all that not being said, I say we hop right to it,…
WIAW: The I’m Not Detoxing Edition
I haven’t participated in a What I Ate Wednesday post since early October, which is almost indecent when you stop and think about it. Not that I’ve spent a ton of time thinking about it. Alright maybe a little bit. I am a food blogger after all, and WIAW is a staple of our diets. It ranks right…
Pomegranate Citrus Salad Recipe
I am not a detox kind of girl. Given my age, I’m actually not a girl at all anymore, although I find it preferential to being called lady or god forbid, ma’am. That last one might get you a back hand across the face or at minimum, a pointed and disapproving stare. Alright fine, when you factor in my predominantly non-violent…
2015 New Year’s Resolutions
There was a half second there, where I contemplated skipping the whole New Year’s Resolution post. (source) And then I laughed at that ridiculous idea. After all, I am a Type A planner through and through; a self-proclaimed list lover, who thrives off organization and goal setting. I can’t imagine voluntarily passing on an opportunity…
Top Recipes and Other Sundry Items
I had no intention of jumping on the whole ‘Year in Review’ and ‘Top Ten Recipes’ bandwagon today. Being semi-resistant to the whole idea, I even scoffed at it at one point; vigorously I might add. The voices in my head were pretty persistent though, as is often the case, and they kept reiterating the benefits…
Post Holiday Glow
One movie. Two impromptu concerts, self hosted of course. Three states. Four cities. Five workouts. Seven parties. Endless eats. Infinite cocktails. Loads of sleep. Plus a post party glow. The Hubby and I completed our holiday circuit yesterday afternoon. As such, we are both filled with warm fuzzies, and love and gratitude for our families, along with all other things equally as touching;…
