Fudge-Tastic Brownies (vegan, gluten-free, grain-free + nut-free)
Oh have I got a treat for you today! I’ve held on to this recipe for months and am wondering why the heck I waited this long to make it. I guess there just isn’t enough time in the day to try each and every single recipe I have pinned, tweeted and Facebooked. But there…

Ah, a chocolate bunny exploded in our hallway and all over my office! Pretty sure my day’s going to consist of chocolate, breakfast rolls and a much-needed afternoon run to wear off all the sugar before Easter dinner. What did the bunny bring you?
Mint Chocolate Chip Smoothie
The weather is getting warmer, days are longer, and all I can think about are salads, green smoothies and lemon water. Are you feeling the same?

GIVEAWAY: Authentic Dominican Republic Cacao Powder
Morning :) Guess what I picked up for us yesterday? Three pounds of the best cacao powder I’ve ever tasted. Well, four pounds if you include the package I bought for myself.

Paleo Chocolate Fudge + Vanilla Bean Mug Cakes
Have I mentioned how much I love Pinterest? I think my life has become more creative as a result of spending at least 20 minutes a day on the site. I have my eye on fork magnets, flower eggs, and perhaps a bit too many wedding ideas for a girl who’s not even engaged… yet. But…
5 Ingredient Jam-packed Protein Cakes
One of my biggest frustrations over the past couple of months has been my inability to build muscle. I changed up my workouts, tried out new activities, nothing was helping.
