Your Body’s Not Going to Clean Itself Up
I am so incredibly excited to introduce my dear friend Jen. She's amazing, and has overcome so much! She's also my decluttering guru: When my body started to “fall apart” (as I call it) in late 2011, I had no idea what was going on. Suddenly, in my early 30’s, I was having … [Read more...]
Gluten Free Tuna Noodle Casserole
When I was a kid, my mom made me tuna melts on days when we were playing hard. They were simple: just a roux, some cream, tuna fish, salt, pepper, and frozen peas...and they were delicious. She's serve them over toasted bread, so it was kind of like an open faced sandwich. I know … [Read more...]

I received a box of Motivator Muffin Mix from FitBodyBakery in exchange for this post. In case you haven't noticed, it's fall. I love fall. Pumpkin and apples...and when you put them together. Holy.Cow. Or rather, holy muffins, in this case! So, I had planned to make some … [Read more...]
Noodle-Free Chicken Soup
It's fall...technically anyway. If you live in Texas, it's more like extended summer right now, what with the 95 degree temperatures! Normally, I don't pull out my chicken soup recipe until at least mid-November, but we had a "crisp" 80 degree day, so I decided to make an … [Read more...]
