Here are some products I’ve tried lately. Some were bad, some were okay, some were good, and some were awesome. So I figured I’d share. I have no affiliation with any of these companies. These are simply my honest opinions. 1. Tazo vanilla rooibos parfait (from Starbucks) Because I like my tea really (almond) milky, I’m always on the lookout for new decaf varieties that aren’t fruity and don’t have mint or chamomile in them (the two herbal flavors I am not a fan of). It’s surprisingly hard to find. And lately fennel is… Read more >

Before I get to this… I have to show you what I threw together the pervious day. People always love the quickie meal ideas I give more than the elaborate recipes (okay, I never have elaborate per se, but more involved). So here’s another one that is highly adaptable and took under 5 minutes. Thai sweet potato rice casserole with black beans. Sounds like it took a lot of effort, when really, it was all thanks to a box, a can, and an appliance. Pacific’s thai sweet potato soup may have been… Read more >

I’ve sat down to write this post a few different times now. Each time I stop because I don’t know where to begin and how much to share. Here’s as much as I can get out for now. I’ve been withholding news. It’s really really exciting news. But it’s also bittersweet. Remember that trip up to Nor Cal? Where we visited my family and Kyle’s business in Davis? Yeah, we were actually doing some house hunting too. And guess what! We found a [perfect!!!!] place so easily, it’s like it was meant to be. I’m… Read more >

I know I said I was heading out of town this weekend (I am), but I had to pop in to tell you two very awesome things. I have a new niece! Scarlett Alice was born in the wee early hours Friday morning. Isn’t she precious. :) I love her to pieces already. The second is considerably less thrilling to everyone else, but I was pleased nonetheless. This is my happy face after getting a call saying the unit was overstaffed for the night and I could have a holiday. Wee!! I was… Read more >

What a weekend. It all started with a Friday wedding. Ok, actually it all started with a really awesome breakfast. Oats topped in a perfectly fried egg and avocado. Kyle came home from work early, so I got to eat lunch with him, which was a nice change in routine. I had Amy’s golden lentil soup. It was stellar! I have already gone to the store to get another can, that’s how much I loved it. I think this is now the best Amy’s soup I’ve ever tried. On the side I had carrots… Read more >
