It’s Artichoke heart season and I’m pumped. I love the little buggers. Why? Well honestly – I love dips – hummus, tzatziki, roasted red pepper, garlic sauce .. But in order to eat dips you kinda need a pita or a chip to dip it in ! And these are things I generally don’t eat! [...]

I don’t mean to be a stick in the mud but I think it’s important for someone to tell you the honest truth about losing weight. None of this 10 pounds in two weeks business! None of this eat everything you want and lose 60 pounds! It’s important to know what you’re in for when [...]

If you’ve never run before,  a 5k is a great place to start. This training schedule should get you ready for a 5k by the end of the summer! 1. Listen to your body. If your body is telling you to stop or if you feel an injury lurking. Back off. Running is great, but [...]

Here is what I’ll be eating for breaky on day one of The Passover Challenge! Why is Quinoa o.k during the passover challenge? Well, it doesn’t rise would be my first answer. My second would be becuase it is a grain/carb that forms a complete protein. Unlike rice or even white potato – you get [...]

I was watching Lost on Tuesday night, and there was this scene where Sawyer opened his fridge to grab dinner. In his refrigerator/freezer was beer, frozen dinners some O.J and maybe a bag of leftovers. And I turned to my husband and said “It’s amazing how much the food in a fridge can tell you [...]

Winter is unofficially gonzo! I’m afraid if I say officially then it will come back! For all of you who put those pedometers in your drawer over the winter, it’s time to break it out! If you’ve never owned a pedometer what a great time to go and get one. You can buy one at [...]
