Other possible titles: He’s a Metabolic Machine | I Hate Him Why Can HE Eat So Much Crap and I Can’t? He’s Eating. AGAIN. Really? My Pooch Is Back and It’s All His Fault So we’re settling in at the farm and enjoying our new co-borrower-shacking-up relationship. I always sorta knew that he ate a [...]
Before my figgy weekend, I’d never eaten a fig, let alone cooked with figs. But I was seeing them in the store, and I had this sense that they were special. My cooking technique is lacking, so assembly is the name of my kitchen game. But cooking with figs? This is very much out of [...]
Healthy Cookies With Rosemary, Raisins, & Chickpeas My dear friend Kristina (Spabettie.com) first introduced me to healthy cookies with a garbanzo bean base. They’re so tasty and healthy and have a wonderful consistency; I’ve even been known to have peanut butter chocolate balls for breakfast. She experiments with all sorts of flavors – and I [...]
I’ve been on a really great health roll lately. I loved my second swim lesson this week, I’m still basking in the glow of my first beginning mountain bike rides in Tahoe, I took a yoga class with the BF+ (I didn’t even giggle when the teacher said I had perfect alignment – don’t worry [...]
What can I say? Kristina (aka Spabettie) ALWAYS makes me smile. She is creative and fearless in the kitchen, and her joy is contagious! Kristina’s recipes, photography and personality are all soul medicine for me (yes I’ve been known to troll her site for a quick pick me up). Enjoy this Mango and Onion Quinoa [...]
I’m kinda sick of chicken. Don’t get me wrong, my frozen bags of chicken breasts have been instrumental in shifting from an eat-out-all-the-time to a cook-my-own-food occasionally habit. But really, a girl needs more than just chicken, right? With the onset of lovely weather and a burst of confidence, I was feeling bold. And with [...]
I’ve got a thing for fruit and nuts with protein in a main dish – I just think it’s super tasty. This healthy chicken salad is one of my favorite combos on the planet. I buy the nuts chopped and chicken cooked (sometimes even cut up already). Although a knife is required for the onions [...]
We had a lovely time in Vegas, and yes, health and wellness is possible in Sin City! We stayed at the Bellagio and had a fountain view room (highly recommend) and could watch the fountain show from the comfort of the cushy chairs while listening to the music on the TV. (My favorite was ONE [...]
“Whatever we think about gets bigger….” It was about 20 years ago when I first heard this, and it has always stuck with me. Over time, I’ve mainly applied this to my thinking. For example, focusing on the solution gets makes the solution grow in our mind, and is more productive than focusing on the [...]
Venturing into “new” ingredients, I’ve been staring at this large yellow gourd for a few days now. But thanks to Todd (@PhitZone), Deb (@DebRoby), & Shelley (@Momma_Oz), I just went for it. I roasted the spaghetti squash (along with some other squashes & peppers), made the sauce, and carmelized some onions for pizazz. While “forking” [...]
