A couple weeks ago I committed to reading at least one book a week for the rest of the year. I was reflecting on how reading personal development books in the past has catapulted my life, my career, my relationships and my health, so I decided to make this a part of every single week, […]
Anyone else love a good baked fish? The crumb topping…the buttery goodness….it’s…sooo…goooooood. Props go to my hubby for coming up with this on the fly a couple weeks ago. It’s already becoming a weekly go to. I’m not going to write a long story, or overdo it on the photos. Let’s get right to the […]

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 […]
