Healthy green recipes for St. Patrick’s Day
I'm such a cliché…green for St. Patrick's Day; but I can't help myself. I love St. Patrick's Day! (There. I said it.) My few drops of Irish blood, 12+ years of living in NYC (St. Patrick's Day Parade + Irish pubs...need I say more?), spring just around the...

Do you like kitchen gadgets? Believe it or not, I don't have as many as you might think. 🙂 But I do have a few things that you'd have to wrestle me to the ground to take, things that save me time in the kitchen, help me have healthy food available more often than...

I had the craziest weekend. I don't get sick very often; but boy, did I get knocked down on Saturday by this nasty norovirus thingy you've probably read about in the news! Lucky for me, it only lasted for about 24 hours; but during that time, I was reminded how much I...
Healthy basics: 6 things I’m doing now
How's your month going? I'm not usually a fan of January. I've always hated the New Year's hype, along with its unrealistic expectations and pressure to "make change happen…NOW." (You probably know by now how I feel about New Year's resolutions.) The second half of...
Carbs: 5 mistakes even healthy eaters make
How do you feel about the word "carb"? Oooooo…carb. It's a four-letter word, right? (Well, obviously...but you know what I mean.) What if I told you that you might be making a big mistake if you're avoiding carbs...a mistake that's costing you the sublime pleasure of...
Resolutions don’t work. 3 things to do instead.
I know…it's an unpopular opinion at this time of year; but have you ever known me to be shy about what I think? 😉 What's that saying? "The road to hell is paved with good intentions." That's pretty much how I feel about New Year's resolutions. It's not that I doubt...
