Sometimes when we talk about “wholesome, nutritious meals” and “fast, simple meals” we are talking about two very different kinds of meals, with two very different kinds of clean-up afterwards. I know a lot of people who like the idea of cooking good, whole meals for their families, but the time, complexity, and clean-up has […]
Water – it’s so necessary and has a very long list of health benefits, so why do I struggle drinking enough of it? It increases energy, flushes toxins out of the body, contributes to a glowing complexion, promotes weight loss, boosts the immune system, and is essential to a healthy digestive system. There’s no doubt […]
My relationship with salsa started out pretty bleak – its name was Pace. Looking back, I find solace in the fact that “you don’t know what you don’t know.” Born and raised in Midwest Ohio, Pace is about as spicy as salsa comes on the plains. In August of 2016, my husband and I made […]

Most people wait until autumn and winter to enjoy chili. I love this chili so much that I make it all year round, even when it’s ninety degrees outside. Between the flavor and the abundance of nutrients I don’t miss the meat one bit and neither does my husband – it’s a big deal folks! […]
Autumn has a way of grounding us, drawing us back to the warmth of our homes, and beckoning us to revel in the steady rhythms of nostalgia. To me, autumn always feels like coming home – predictable and comforting. Leaves change, temperatures drop, apples are picked, and pumpkins are popping up on doorsteps and tabletops. […]
It all started the summer after my sophomore year in high school. I wanted something to occupy my time for the next few months and, let’s be honest, cash in my wallet. I started applying for summer jobs at any place that was brave enough to consider a 16 year old for hire. A few […]
