GOOD MORNING, dolls! I have a fun recipe to share with you, but first I just have to show you what I stumbled upon while heading out for a morning walk…
sfoiuhsiugkisfgiug;piougyi!!!! This arachnophobe was not thrilled, to say the least
I’ve mentioned before how I’m afraid of spiders, but I’ve never in my life seen [...]
HI DOLLS! Hope you all enjoyed this last August Sunday I spent the afternoon on another date with my momma. We went to Sunset Beach, which is a popular tourist spot in Cape May. It’s home of the “Cape May diamond” and this near-shore shipwreck.
Even though I’m really looking forward to the fall, it’s [...]
It’s that time again! With August coming to a close in a few days, here are some of my favorite things from this last full month of summer.
food.
Three words: Frozen. Nut. Butter!
HEAB introduced me to this life changing snack, and I’m never turning back.
Another favorite snack/dessert is also of the nut-butter-category: almond butter mousse.
And lastly, [...]
For dinner last night I made a second attempt to clean out the kitchen, and I must say that it was another success.
I’m a lover of all things in casserole form, so I’ll pick a Mexican-inspired salad over a taco any day of the week. To make this dish you’ll need:
1 pound ground chicken
1 small onion, [...]
With summer ending soon, this week has become clean out the shore-house kitchen week. After just a few minutes of taking inventory and contemplating recipe ideas, I ended up baking this delicious treat.
Blueberry Walnut Coconut Cake
It seems as though 99% of my baking experiments are with coconut flour, huh? What can I say…I love the stuff! [...]
HI DOLLS! I feel like I say this all the time but…is it really already Friday?! I’m certainly not complaining, but it’s crazy to think that not only is this week almost over, but August flashed before our eyes. Eek!
break the fast…literally.
I had to get fasting labs done this morning (nothing serious, just to check up [...]
Okay you guys, this is a good one. I can’t say I take all of the credit because a) I wasn’t the first to discover the delicious combination of nut butter + dates and b) I also didn’t come up with the insanely amazing idea of freezing nut butter.
BUT. I do demand that you go make [...]
When it comes to hot dogs, I’m pretty picky. I generally stick to all-beef dogs from the ballpark or straight off the grill (or, when trying a “famous” hotdog).
When the folks at Arnold/Orowheat suggested recreating one of the foods we tried on the Chicago Tastebud Tour, I automatically thought of the Chicago Red Hot I had [...]
So…does anyone want to donate to the send Gracie back to Chicago for another weekend fund?! Okay, didn’t think so. It was worth a shot, right? I’ve just had such a great time in this fabulous city.
Chicago food tour.
Rewind to yesterday afternoon: I went on a food tour of Chicago, which was hosted by Tastebud [...]
Well, the Healthy Living Summit sessions came and went like *that,* but they were nothing short of pure awesomeness. Let’s start with a recap of the eats, shall we?
breakfast.
Breakfast at HLS was very impressive. The spread included a Quaker oatmeal bar, tons of Stonyfield yogurt, muffins, croissants, Thomas’ Bagel Thins, and a massive amount of fresh [...]
What do you get when you put hundreds of healthy living bloggers in heels and a club-like atmosphere? A quite epic time.
The Open Sky cocktail party took place at the LaSalle Power Co. They were so welcoming!
There were some yummy eats for us including veggie quesadillas and mini turkey burgers. I opted for [...]
