Hello there! Those of you who have been reading for a long time will know that I often share a new healthy recipe and a new-to-me find on Wednesdays. This week I’ve used that new-to-me thing in a dish that is definitely worthy of the Recipe of the Week spotlight, so consider it a very tasty […]
Hi friends! Before I get into today’s foodie chat, I just wanted to say thank you so, so much for all of your lovely comments and emails about Monday’s goal check-in. As I said in that post, life can be rough sometimes but it helps so much when you’re surrounded by awesome people and thank YOU […]
Since becoming interested in cooking back in my late teens, I’ve experienced a good number of situations where a little voice in my head says “you probably shouldn’t do this…” but I do it anyway. I’m not talking about the “you probably shouldn’t eat that entire jar of peanut butter” voice, or the “you probably […]
I’ve talked a bit before about how I wasn’t introduced to many of my favourite vegetables until late in my teens. As kids, my sister and I ate veggies in the form of mixed peas, carrots and beans, broccoli (boiled and coated in cheese sauce), romaine and iceberg lettuce (coated in caesar and ranch dressing respectively), […]

Two weeks ago I talked about 5 changes I’ve made to help reduce bloating, a problem I’ve grown to be especially familiar with over the past couple of years. That post proved to be a very popular one, and it’s clear that I’m certainly not alone when it comes to this topic. As promised, I’ve […]
Recently it seems a large number of my friends are either getting married or having babies. I’m far from either of those life events, so wrapping my head around the fact that some of the lovely ladies I know are mamas-to-be just feels weird. Some of them post photos of their baby bumps, and I […]
*** NOTE: For some very odd reason, there were some funky things going on with my posts a couple of weeks ago. This was initially due to be published on August 20th, and I apologize if it’s popping up in your inbox/reader late. Technology has not been my friend recently, but thank you for your patience […]
If you’ve been a reader for a while, you already know that I swear by doing Sunday meal prep for the week ahead. A couple of weeks ago, I declared that one of my goals was to make July a month of saving rather than spending, and one of the pieces of that was focusing on […]
As many of you who are regular readers know, I’ve got a bit of a thing for fruits and vegetables. I’ve been told that I eat an impressive amount of both, and my friends who have traveled with me can attest to the fact that I don’t jump in the car for a long drive without a […]
