I successfully completed the Whole 30 last month and it’s completely flipped my eating habits. While I’ve added back in small doses of dairy, legumes (seriously, life without hummus is just SAD) and occasional grains like rice, oats and corn, I’m proud to say I’ve been completely gluten free for almost two months.

By the time mid-October rolls around, the kids (and if you live in my house, the grownups) are getting excited about Halloween. We love Halloween but OMG the time leading up to the actual holiday is crazy town. Costumes. Parties. Candy. Crafts. If your kids are younger, trying to manage the whole “is this going…
Disney Pixar’s Coco is coming to theaters this Thanksgiving – November 22nd, to be exact. We love going to the movies on Thanksgiving.

This acorn squash side dish just screams fall to me. I know it’s almost time for sweaters and leggings and pumpkin spice everything but when I think of fall, this is the yummy image that pops into my brain. This is my very favorite side dish. I love, love, love it. Try this baked squash…
Have you ever accidentally taken a picture of yourself in selfie mode? It’s kind of a nasty shock, at least it was for me the first time I did it. Getting botox and volbella fillers – What it’s like I partnered with Dr. Connie Hiers and her team at Dr. Connie Hiers Plastic Surgery and MedSpa for…
I am notoriously late in getting my act together when it comes to organizing (or even purchasing) Halloween costumes. In 2013, I bought my kids’ costumes on October 30th. They went as Yoda and Superman because that was pretty much the only option I had. Every year, I see all the cute, coordinated family Halloween…
