Oh jeez, Calgary is rocking my world right now. I’m happy. I’m smiling. I’m all lit up. I attended my sister’s convocation (the scientific cookie of the family!), spent Papa’s day with my Dad, girls night with Mom… it’s been nourishing.
Food memory throwbacks are the best kind of memories. The smells, the tastes, they’re essential to our life experience and should continue to be experienced even if allergies, sensitivities, or a change in eating style threaten to ruin the show. Allergies aside, I bet there are a handful of foods that ignite your creativity, stunt…

The weather has been absolutely amazing these last couple of weeks. I’ve been meditating outside every morning and have literally pulled my office out onto our deck. I’ve got my little workstation all set up, a comfy couch to lounge on, what more could a girl want?
Saving money on groceries is the name of my eating healthy game. I’ll make my own dairy-free ranch salad dressing, paleo cheese sauce, or sandwich wraps if it means saving a buck. I’ll replace expensive ingredients for less expensive ones in recipes like my lemon pudding, or my roasted vegetable cabbage rolls if I know…
There are days where I just feel… unpretty. Days when my clothes are too tight, my hair has a mind of its own, and a ginormous zit has taken up camp on the middle of my chin. Days where I feel awkward, unattractive, and anything but fiercely feminine. Where all I want to do is lounge…
Today we’re talking about how to squash cravings and prepare healthy (quick) snacks to keep up with the hustle and bustle of our daily lives. Practicality meets whole food amazingness… Fun!
