Saturday at last . I couldn’t wait for my raspberry-coconut lemon bars to completely finish cooling last night. I had one while it was semi-warm and melty so the true texture didn’t shine through. The verdict is still out. I can tell you, however; it was super sweet and excellent with vanilla ice cream.I proceeded [...]
I have not lived. Dinner was ridiculously simple and delicious: Slow Cooked Boston Baked Beans; Homemade Skillet Cornbread; Kale Sauteed in Olive Oil, Garlic and Lemon topped with Cherry Tomatoes and Grated Parmesan Cheese; and a glass of Cabernet Sauvignon. Photos first, then words. This knocked my socks off. Er…well flip flops. Sandal season is [...]

I decided to join Kalli at FitandFortySomething, in “Smoothie Friday” with my all time favorite breakfast/post work out smoothie, a cool and satisfying Chocolate, Peanut Butter and Banana [...]
After I packed up my lunch it began to thunder-storm! Go figure. I decided to make camp in my apartment and study while it passed. After a little while I determined that it was time to take a study break and stir my new almond butter jar. I figured I was going to want almond [...]
AH! I feel like I have been away for ages! This weekend was a little NUTS and filled with a few too many NUTS. I began my Saturday with a lovely breakfast with my roommate of Cinnamon Peaches and Cream Kodiak Cakes with sliced pineapple, watermelon, orange juice and coffee on the side. I love [...]
