    Today is (yesterday was) chocolate caramel day! So obviously my perfect intentions for staying ahead of the game this year didn’t work out as perfectly as I’d hoped. Does anyone else have this problem? That’s okay – chocolate makes everything better, so let’s focus on that. Combine chocolate with caramel and you take “better” to…

    This is the year that I get completely organized, stay ahead of the game, and don’t let circumstances control the direction of my life. *Cue Laugh Track* Each January, like so many others, I make goals and resolutions to get my life organized. Then life sits back and just laughs and laughs. Well this year I’m doing a…

    Sometimes Pinspiration strikes at the most random times; for example, while walking through the grocery store at 5:15 pm while you have no idea what you’re going to make for supper. There were these beautiful thick boneless pork chops on sale. When I say thick, I mean about 2 inches thick – perfect for splitting…

    Some of you know that I’ve been working very hard to change to a healthier lifestyle and lose weight, although the weight loss is secondary to getting healthy and fit. The problem is that I also love to cook and bake, and I don’t always want to choose the celery and peanut-butter rather than a rich dessert.…

    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…

    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…

    I was never a fan of guacamole until I met my husband. He makes the BEST guac (as we usually call it in our house). Even people who don’t like guacamole like my handsome hubby’s guac. His recipe is simple. It’s made with simple real ingredients. (I asked if he would let me share his…
