Last weekend, my husband and I watched the movie Fat, Sick, and Nearly Dead. How’s that for a Monday morning blog post intro? It’s relevant, though… I promise! You see, we have a few friends who have done the whole “juicing” diet thing. Some have had good results, others have ended up not feeling so…
I would love to say that we have lots of ripe, juicy tomatoes in our garden at the moment, but that’s not the case. It seems that the hot, dry weather we have had lately is working against me. And, of course, the groundhog that has learned to climb the fence isn’t really helping, either….
It’s that time again… Time to showcase everyone’s hard work for this month’s Kitchen Bootcamp challenge! I am so thrilled that so many of you took the time to participate and cook along side of me, especially because I rushed this challenge a bit to get it in by the end of the month. It’s so…
If you follow me on Twitter, you’ve probably seen me tweeting about my new running routine. It feels good to be getting back into running, but I feel like I am really hungry all of the time! My hubby and I eat a lot of salads for lunch, but a plate of greens drizzled with…
After reading all about everyone’s favorite foods for the grill, I have been feeling super inspired to head outside and do some grilling myself. Unfortunately, we’ve had a bit of a cold and rainy spell, and I haven’t had the energy to brave the weather and cook outside. So, even though I don’t have a fun…
We’ve had some unusually warm hot weather this week… It’s been in the 80s and 90s in the afternoons! I like each season as it comes, but I have to say that summer is probably my least favorite. I love spring, but when th hot sticky weather of summer arrives, it wears me out! So,…
I don’t know about you, but when it’s hot and humid in the summer, the last thing I want to do is cook on the stove or use the oven. With the amount of delicious fresh produce I have been getting from our CSA and our garden, I have been able to make a lot…
Vacation is a wonderful thing, isn’t it? Unfortunately, coming home from vacation isn’t. Don’t get me wrong – it’s always nice to be home. It’s just that coming home from vacation means laundry, cleaning, and getting back to work. So, needless to say, I am glad that it is finally Friday! I’m ready for the busy “back…
After a week of penny pinching and raiding my pantry, I am happy to say that I am on track and haven’t blown my budget (yet). Because I started with a fairly well-stocked pantry, I have had a lot of options each night when it comes to making dinner. It’s definitely been a shift in…
It’s Friday again, which means it’s time for my favorite blog posts of the week! Time really does fly – it’s hard to believe this is my seventh week of Friday Favorites. When I started this blog back in January, I had no idea that it would be this much fun or that it would lead…
