I asked my followers on Facebook a couple of weeks ago what quinoa flake bake flavor I should come up with next. Although there was a strong following for carrot cake at first, snickerdoodle ended up sliding into first base. A couple of tries later and I successfully landed on a cake that was perfectly…
Do you remember the first time you drank Gatorade? I do! I was at a track and field meet. After the race, my coach passed me a bottle of Gatorade and told me to drink it to avoid feeling sick. The neon color should have been enough to raise a red flag, but I drank…
I was so tired yesterday morning that I decided to skip my morning workout, treat myself to a 30 minute sleep in, and prepare a nice breakfast. After enjoying an apple quinoa flake bake, I set the intention that I would find the time in the afternoon for a run. Thankfully, 10 hours later I…

I swear this totally constitutes as a breakfast item. Before I started the blog I wasn’t fully aware of my love for breakfast. Now that I have a recipe page that documents my daily eats, it’s clear to see that early morning eating is the way to my heart. Shortcakecut to my heart? These little…
We had quite the productive weekend! Kevin has been working with our neighbors on our many ongoing backyard projects. By the end of the week we should have a fence, full deck [with stairs!], grass, trees, and a fire pit! Before: Progress: Stopping for a much needed Corona. I couldn’t be more excited to finally…
