There are some things in my diet that I’m just not ready to give up, like butter, bread, and…pasta. While I may not indulge myself everyday, sometimes I have to cheat and have a piece of buttered toast for breakfast with a side of bacon. I can’t help it. Luckily for the devilish side of …
The 80 Day Obsession is a new workout and nutrition program from Beachbody. I’ve put together a list of some delicious No Yellow Lunches (and dinners) to get you started on your meal planning journey. Similar to the 21 Day Fix, 80 Day Obsession is based on the color coded containers and portion control. Along …
One of my most popular 21 Day Fix posts is for Overnight Coconut Oats. And it’s popular for good reason – it’s easy and delicious. Coconut is a favorite of mine, and I knew that I wanted to make a coconut version of steel cut oats for for the Instant Pot. These 21 Day Fix …
Let’s talk about affirmations for a minute. Affirmations are a way for you to connect with who you want to be (the person you really are, and just need to be in touch with – or the person you are trying to become). They remind you that you’re capable and that you are enough. They …
It’s hard to believe it’s 2018. 20 – freaking – 18!!! Things are finally slowing down a bit, and I’m taking the time to get my eating habits under control after a full month (OK, maybe 2…) of holiday bingeing. I’m also going to start working on that New Year’s resolution of mine: time management. Again. This …
Last week I re-engaged with the 21 Day Fix. The holidays kind of (totally) threw me for a loop, as they do. Always. Every year. It’s like I don’t know they’re coming, or something. Or when they do come, I just fall into a melty mess of cookies and wine and gravy and ain’t nobody …
I love candy hearts. Mostly, eating them. But it seems I’ve also made a bunch of fun DIY candy heart craft projects, as evidenced here, here, and here (geez…Necco needs to give me a job, y’all!). They’re just so fun and easy to use, and basically all you have to do is glue them to something …
The Instant Pot is rocking my world. My current favorite thing to make, because it’s so easy, is oatmeal. I love steel cut oats, and they’re easy to make on the stovetop…but they do take awhile. These 21 Day Fix Peanut Butter Steel Cut Oats are made in the Instant Pot, which cuts the …
The Instant Pot is where it’s at. I made three things with mine yesterday – Buttered Steel Cut Oats (Fix-friendly, even though it doesn’t sound like it!), Breakfast Quiche and Ranch Chicken. And that was in less than two hours. If you are still on the fence and don’t have an Instant Pot yet, this …
True story: I didn’t eat avocados until I was twenty-eight years old. So that means I was missing out on avocados for twenty-eight years. I grew up in Southern California, where there’s practically an avocado tree on every corner. My grandmother had one in her back yard…I used to ride my horse through an avocado …
