I feel like from Thanksgiving to New Year’s it’s basically a free for all when it comes to eating. Â I scrap all the restrictions and the diet ideas and just go for broke. Â My biggest weakness when it comes to food is cookies. Â I’ll take a cookie over a cake or a candy bar or …
Anyone else have bowls full of apples in the house? Â Ok, I only have one bowl, but really, I can’t resist buying apples this time of year. Â I’m trying out a new low carb diet (which technically doesn’t include apples, but I’ve never been good at the technical side of things) and I really don’t …
I noticed this week that now that my kids are back in school, I’m skipping meals, especially lunch, and grazing all day instead. Â Unfortunately, the food I’m grazing on is never good for me.

Â The list I’ve compiled would be awesome if you’re having a Halloween party, but maybe pick one to make just …

I’m back from vacation and feeling that weird melancholy of knowing that vacation is over for another year and it’s back to regular life. Â That’s about the saddest sentence I’ve written in a long time. Â One of the wins from vacation was discovering a new favorite meal, Naan Bread Pizza Easy Weeknight Dinner. Â I’m so …
Next week is our annual vacation to my favorite place on earth, Lake Winnepesaukee! I’ve written about my love for this spot before here. I look forward to this every year and I’m so excited that it’s finally almost here.  The cottage that we stay in has a small, but efficient kitchen and a grill …
