Do you bring a bagged lunch or do you buy? With my dietary restrictions, I almost always bring my lunch. If I'm not prepared, I'll end up buying ginger ale and a bag chips or popcorn for lunch at the convenient store in my office. Not ideal. In the summer,...
Poor brussels sprouts - they've always had such a bad rap. It's too bad because they're actually delicious, even candy-like when roasted in a touch of maple syrup. This recipe is my new go-to side for Thanksgiving and Christmas meals. It's the perfect side to meaty...
Hearty, belly-warming, satisfying soup. That's what I've been craving ever since the weather started to get chilly. When fall comes, I naturally move away from cold salads and try to get my fill of veggies with soups instead. The colder weather and dark nights...

I live for my weekends. For me, nothing could be more wonderful than sleeping in, snuggling under my pile of blankets. If I could be a fairy tale character, I would be cross between Sleeping Beauty who slept for 100 years and the Princess and the Pea, where I sleep...
