As I write this post, I am listening to a breeze that’s noticeably cooler than it has been the last few weeks. There were a few leaves starting to change as I ran my weekend errands. These things are making it easier for me to finally embrace the fall season. It gets me ready for […]

First, I apologize there was no Salad on Sundays post last weekend. We’ve had a few very busy weekends over the last couple of weeks. Family from out of town traveled here from Illinois to visit our new little nephew. Then we traveled to South Dakota to see some more family all while trying to […]

Is there anything better than peaches in the summer? In Wyoming, we start talking about the traveling farmers markets that arrive with crates of the fresh fruits early in the summer. So many seasonal recipes featuring peaches as the main ingredient from friends and family – I look forward to it every year. So, it’s […]

So, I decided to start a weekly series and I’m pretty excited about it. Every Sunday I am going to share a new, seasonal salad recipe here on the blog and into your inboxes (if you need to subscribe, you can do that here!). Welcome to Salad on Sundays! Starting this series was inspired by a […]

I am beat. If you follow me on Instagram, you saw that we’re about to embark on a family adventure by listing our house. So this last weekend was dedicated to getting things ready, and it took three days. Going through clothes, toys, books – making piles of giveaways, garbage and what to store. Three […]

This post is sponsored by ABRAMS Books, as part of the ABRAMS Dinner Party. All opinions shared with you are my own. Pizza is something I plan to experiment a lot with this summer. It’s one of the best ways to utilize those fresh ingredients from the garden in a quick and creative way. We […]

The spring line up of ABRAMS cookbooks has me gitty–starting with today’s release of A Modern Cook’s Year. As someone who loves entertaining, this is an exciting addition to my kitchen. […]

I have so many goals this year. Not sure what sparked it – could have been when I turned from a mother of one to a mother of two. Once we regained control after Eva was born, I felt like we could really start to conquer things. Then the goal setting started. One was to […]

The chaos of two kids has simmered down a bit. We were able to pull off our Friendsgiving with minimal stress, which gives me the idea that we may actually have this down. Although things have evened out a bit, I am still trying to find time for the kitchen. I wanted to experiment with […]

I have come across some of the most yummy looking smoothie recipes lately. It’s something I have been looking for a lot during this pregnancy. Quick, easy and healthy is best for me these days. I am also always trying to get Lydia to try new flavors and she has yet to turn a taste […]

A few months ago, I decided to participate in my first ever food challenge. My Crossfit gym takes part in Lurong challenges, which focuses on both nutrition and fitness. The nutritional part is a complete clean eating diet. No added sugars, no dairy, and no preservatives (if you can help it). The no preservatives part […]

During one of our winery tours in Mendoza, we stopped at one of my must-sees, Bodega La Azul. I loved the bohemian look to the winery, its boutique size and the rave food reviews. The five course wine pairing meal here is to-die-for. The ingredients are simple, but they highlight the important parts of each […]
