Disclaimer: I am not an expert on this matter. I am simply somebody who has dealt with anxiety for about 15 years now and have found meditation a near cure for my symptoms. If you’re currently on a path that works for you, I suggest simply adding meditation to your daily routine to see where …
After I made my 4th of July cake pops, the husband could not get enough and begged me to make them for him again. I thought if I was going to make them, I may as well try my hand at cute Halloween designs… and I was pretty excited about the results. So, needless to …
Amanda posted these peanut butter, banana, oatmeal cookies on her Instagram feed yesterday {without chips but WITH Nutella} and I LITERALLY COULD NOT NOT MAKE THEM. In fact, I only waited about two hours and then whipped them up in about 14 minutes total. I looked around for similar recipes on the line {online} -just …
“I’m a big fan of the kinds of minor changes that add up to major delight.” We’re just over the half-way point in the Oprah/Deepak 21 Day Meditation challenge and I’m just loving it. I tend to do it as soon as I wake up, while I’m still relaxed and laying in bed. I’ll grab …
I’ve been trying to incorporate meditation into my daily routine for nearly a year now. Some days I am successful, but most days I am not. I’ve gone a good three days of meditation in a row before crapping out exclaiming that I just don’t have the time. But that’s just not the truth. I …
In the heat of the Summer, I want everything frozen. Everything. And since I’m trying to eat healthier and cut my sugars back, ice cream and ice blended coffee fraps are not necessarily on my daily intake list, though I wish they were! When we returned from our hike the other day I just wanted …
One of Crestline’s natural wonders, Heart Rock in the Valley of Enchantment, is just about a twenty minute drive from where we live in Lake Arrowhead. I’ve been dying to see it since we moved here and last Monday we finally decided it was a good day to do so. The pretty hike is a …
We’re so spoiled when our friends Josh and Rafi come to visit. I mean, so spoiled… and we love it! Not only do they arrive with overflowing bags of healthy foods and organic fruits and veggies to share, they also cook so many amazingly yummy dishes for us that we’ve established traditions of what we …
This was a few months ago, when it was still very much winter here, but for some reason, this post got lost and I forgot to publish it! Until now… & though all photos were taken with my iPhone, I think you get the point. If you’re in the area or live up here, you …
As much as I’ve been desperately trying to cut back on sugar {not because it’s trendy, but because I got a high glucose reading last year :/}, I sometimes still have to splurge. And let me just say, these cake pops are the thing to splurge on. Cake Pops have been THE cute go-to dessert …
I’m such a bread lover… like almost as much as I love chocolate ice cream, I love bread. If I could live on bread and chocolate, I most certainly would. But as of late, {since last Summer actually, when I got a high glucose reading at the doctor’s office} I’ve been trying to cut down …
I’ve been dying to cook beets since Patty posted her fabulous Beet, Burrata & Orange Salad w/ Poppy Seed Vinaigrette because while I do like beets, I’ve only ever tried the canned variety. Last week at the Farmer’s Market while trying to decide if I should take the plunge and get the beets, the man …
Because omg I love sweets and because I’m trying to eat less of my favorites just to be healthier and because I NEED alternatives to my favorites because like I said I LOVE SWEETS, so here are a few I’ve been loving. Coconut Bliss Dark Chocolate Ice Cream Okay so, if I’m getting dessert, …
by guest writer Patty Joy My husband and I were recently invited to an upscale steak house for dinner. An evening with wonderful friends & delicious cuisine sounded like a dream. We indulged in rich & impeccably cooked food. As we finished the meal & reminisced over all the exquisite flavors, it was the simple …
