So, I woke up this morning telling myself that today is really Thursday. Thank goodness I remembered. I had an important day at work. I had to put on a dress and some fancy shoes instead of my normal tee-shirt and jeans uniform for work. I am not going to lie. It was really fun…… Continue reading Today is really Thursday…
The other day someone asked me for my number one piece of advice for how to eat well on a daily basis. For a moment I was totally thrown for a loop. One, single most important piece of advice?! Eventually I came up with the one key to my ability to eat well every day.…… Continue reading My advice?
Hi there bloggies: So, I was pretty uninspired this week when it came to food. I had the a lot of the same food, and dinners were on the fly. This is what happens when you do not make a plan and have a Sunday night prep time. (I opted to go to the movies…… Continue reading Happy Memorial Day Weekend…
I have a new go to dinner! Last night when I was starving this dinner really saved me and it was so simple!

Sometime on Thursday nights you’ve gotta do what you’ve gotta do. I needed to come up with an idea for dinner and I did not want it to be super complex.

Hi All: I ate all of the leftovers from last night’s most amazing pasta dinner. It was amazing the next day, too. I think over night the pasta and all of the vegetables (oh – and the bacon!) really have a time to meld together. Everything was totally infused and when I heated everything up…… Continue reading Leftovers…
I never knew using left over vegetables could be so easy… For the last two days (Monday night’s dinner and today for lunch) I have been enjoying my left over vegetable stir fry, baked tofu and brown rice dish: This was a seriously good meal that I had just made on a whim. I honestly…… Continue reading What to do with left over vegetables…
It is rather cold outside, and tonight I was in need of some serious comfort food. This meal takes me back to when I was a kid, although I have changed it up for tonight. One of the meals I loved the most as a kid was when my parents made spaghetti and their homemade…… Continue reading Comfort Food
Hi All – I’m slowly getting adjusted to my new life. Yesterday I moved. Today I got a new stove: I did not get any sleep last night, and it is only 9 o’clock on a Saturday evening and I am sort of falling asleep. I really hope I get at least a couple of…… Continue reading Ch-ch-ch-changes…
