The whites have GOT to be cooked thoroughly. They cannot be slimy. Those are my rules for eggs. As long as the white is cooked well, we’re good. So soft boiled eggs always sounded gross until I was tricked into having them. It was the homemade donuts posted on their website that had me driving […]
Why do I love a overnight oats? It satisfies my morning sweet tooth, it’s portable, and it’s basically a make ahead superstar. You really can’t do them wrong, but you can do them really right if you follow a good recipe. I’ve been whipping them together on and off for a few years, and I’ve […]
March 1 2018 will mark 1 year of sobriety for me, a former blanco tequila aficionado. Who dis? It was February when and for a number of reasons I won’t get into here, but maybe I should get into here, Joel and I decided we would try giving up alcohol for lent, which began on […]
I fly alot. And there are not many things worse than being on a plane and feeling bloated and full because I ate something I shouldn’t have. So as much as I am a proponent for not sweating the small stuff when it comes to eating something less than nutritious ( aka “bad”),I also am […]
Talk about Mmmm Mmmmm Good – this was the absolute best roasted chicken I’ve ever made. The skin was crispy, and the meat was cooked to perfection. Joel and I have been working at making sure we get the best quality available with our meats – in this case we got a pasture raised chicken […]

A couple months ago I gave a talk called “If Your Body Could Speak, What Would It Say.” The event was held at my gym and I recorded it live on Facebook so my Dad could watch from Arizona. The acoustics weren’t particularly great, and my dad is somewhat hard of hearing, so it was […]
Ah, this soup came out event better than I expected! I put this soup together when Joel and I had been living at his parents house for close to 2 months, as renovations went on at our home (more on this in a separate post to come). His parents were in FL during the two […]
I picked up a few white sweet potatoes today – but they were too big for my original idea of sweet potatoes stuffed with buffalo chicken. So I started thinking of all the ways I eat sweet potatoes, diced and roasted, spiralized, mashed, baked…and then, sweet potato fries came into my mind. Ooooh glorious sweet […]
That’s right my friends, I’m talking about the insides of an egg roll. I could eat buckets of it. Buckets. When I stumbled upon the 4323492348 recipes on Pinterest, I thought to myself, how have I not heard of this before? I’ve made “healthy” egg rolls before, baked in the oven. They’re actually pretty good. […]
