    I. Love. Coffee. Anyone who has known me for 10 minutes (or maybe less) is aware of this. I even worked at Starbucks for a couple of years to support my habit. BTW, it’s a great company and part of my retirement plan. Fellow coffee lovers, check out my COFFEE board. It’s full of delicious,…

    Work Birthdays mean treat days. They give the perfect opportunity to make delicious desserts without the guilt since everyone else helps eat them. The added break time is just an added bonus. Since the Birthday Girl loves chocolate and coconut, I thought a German Chocolate Cake would be the perfect treat. Another upside about this…

    All bloggers get the occasional case of writer’s block. Sitting down to write this post, my brain just wasn’t coming up with a satisfactory intro. As I was looking for inspiration, I started singing quietly to myself, “Do You Want to Build a Sandwich” to the tune from Disney’s Frozen. Those who are very close…

    I’m just starting the second week of a 30-day Complete Transformation Challenge to get healthier and lose some weight. I’ve seen a lot of these challenges lately for a variety of products and different number of days (24-day challenge, 30-day challenge, 90-day challenge, etc.) so it seems to be a big thing going on right now. A…

    Summer… Sunsets… Wine… Sangria… That about sums up what happened in my brain when I saw this pin from Lisa’s blog Wine and Glue. I love wine, and I love Sangria. Sangria seems to be a wonderful opportunity for wine to go on a fun and fruity vacation from it’s serious side. Summer seems like…

    Some of the best things in life can come from the most random and unexpected places. For example, a couple of weeks ago some colleagues and I were talking about Pinterest while sitting around the lunch table. I had mentioned the Olive Garden Copycat Minestrone Soup recipe that you make in a crockpot. Two of…

    Do you like Pina Coladas? Gettin’ caught in the rain? I love the song Escape. I always smile when I hear it. It makes me think of a wonderful vacation on a secluded, white sand beach. Of course there would be a delicious beverage with some fruit and a little umbrella as I’m walking on…

    Bringing your lunch to work is a great way to save money and eat healthy. If the thought of taking your own lunch brings images of bologna sandwiches, bruised fruit, and pre-packaged “pastry” – think again! Bento lunches are all the rage. Sandwiches, wraps, and flatbreads have had healthy and delicious overhauls. Even packaging has…

    I love our neighborhood Chinese take out place for a quick dinner that doesn’t make me feel completely guilty for not cooking. One of our family favorites is Beef and Broccoli. It’s got broccoli, therefore it must be healthy. Sure, that’s my story and I’m sticking to it. When I saw this pin by Damn…

    It’s National Grilled Cheese Day! My personal humble opinion is that a grilled cheese sandwich is comfort food at it’s finest – especially when accompanied with tomato soup. Grilled Cheese + Tomato Soup = Happy Anne! So when my handsome hubby showed me this article this morning, I KNEW what I’d be having for lunch…
