Last Saturday night I hosted a dinner party for two good friends, for a total of four people for dinner. Not a huge gathering by any means, but it was fun and intimate. I started the day by going to get a table cloth for the dining room table. Simple enough, I thought. But one…… Continue reading Rustic Blueberry Tart
Good Monday evening to you, blog readers! Before I get to my super simple and simply delicious dinner – let’s do a quick recap of the day. I got a super late start to my day which was unfortunate. My alarm went off starting at 6:15 and I did not get out of bed until…… Continue reading Simple Summer Dinner…
My first couple of days off the ‘cleanse’ were pretty interesting. I really enjoyed the food I was not able to eat last week. Saturday morning I was in a rush to get out the door – I really enjoyed the fact that I could grab a Kashi bar and take it with me on…… Continue reading The Last Couple of Days
I survived five days of clean eating. There were definitely times where I wanted chocolate, ice cream, and cake. I had a lot of temptations during the week – but thanks to some good planning and still being able to eat a lot of my favorite foods, I was able to survive! Remember the good…… Continue reading Clean Eating Project Day 5 – Where To Go From Here
Day four of the Clean Eating Project is coming to a close – thank goodness. All I want is some vanilla frozen (healthy!) yogurt to go with the beautiful peach I just ate.

Still waking up in the…… Continue reading Clean Eating Project Day 4
Day three of the Clean Eating Project started off really well. I have been so pleased when I wake up during this project not feeling hungry. It is also a really nice thing to go to bed not feeling hungry. (Yes, these are certainly first world problems – I wish that no one had to…… Continue reading Clean Eating Project Day Three
On Monday night my mom returned home from just over two weeks in France. She had an amazing vacation, and I planned a welcome home dinner for her. It included halibut that I picked up at the Farmer’s Market on Saturday. This piece of fish was a-mazing. Over the weekend I found my favorite french…… Continue reading Halibut
I have survived the second day of my clean eating plan. I am definitely having cravings (I love bread so much!) but I was surprised how I was able to get through the day with relative ease. When I woke up I was tired (I am always tired during the week because my alarm goes…… Continue reading Clean Eating, Day 2
It has been several months since my last blog entry. In the five years of the blog, I have never taken such a break from writing about food, and I missed the blog quite a bit. After a while, I started to think that I did not have much to contribute to the food and…… Continue reading June 24, 2013
