HOW!?! Seriously, how do SAHM / bloggers do it? I’m only 3 days into Kyle’s 10 days out of town and pretty sure I’m going to turn into an almond by day 5 at the rate I’m pounding through this Costco tub of roasted nuts. And I haven’t written a single new post aside from this one I’m working on now. Which may or may not go live before Kyle returns. Suffice it to say, I’m not exactly excelling in either the cooking or the blogging area. Hopefully I’m doing better in the mom department,… Read more >

The first couple of weeks have flown by. It’s what everyone said would happen, and it is definitely the truth. The food in the hospital was okay. [I work at the same place I gave birth to P so I know exactly where the menu and cafeteria excel and fall short] Whoever told me the first meal after birth would be the best thing I ever ate lied. I didn’t take a photo of it, but I got two slices of french toast and a banana. Remember how much I adore the hospital’s french toast? … Read more >

Well, I’m not in love with the number 2013, but oh well. 365 days of this odd number (it’s not prime, but it may as well be). Don’t worry, I have ZERO desire to list out resolutions for the new year. I don’t know about you but I hate that crap*. I try to (self) reflect and examine how I can improve my lifestyle throughout the year. January 1st is just another rabbit rabbit. Your body can’t tell the difference between this day and April 16th, so make good choices whenever you figure out what… Read more >

Is there anything better than a long weekend? Yes. And that’s a long weekend house dog sitting here. With sunny weather, golf course views, and a well stocked fridge, there’s no reason to venture further than the community pool. Agreed? We drove down to San Juan Capistrano on Thursday evening and stayed through Monday. Some friends joined us for part of the time. We cooked. We ate. We drank. We relaxed. The weekend may as well be titled “blissful nothingness”. It was perfect. When we first arrived, the priority was dinner. That’s what 3 hours… Read more >

So my latest hobby is going on long walks while listening to the Nerdist podcasts. I am in love with any guests that are funny, but bonus points go to people from The Office, Mad Men, or The League (aka the best shows on tv netflix). If they could get Tina Fey (and/or Alec Baldwin) on the show my life would be complete. I’m a nerd. In other news. I recently conducted my own almond milk-off between my all time fave Blue Diamond’s Almond Breeze and Silk’s (new) unsweetened vanilla almond milk. Silk previously… Read more >
