Happy Saint Patricks Day to all! I’m sure you’re all decked out in your green pants, with your green nails, and your green little leprechaun top hat, so why not add a little green to your diet. What better source of greens than our beloved kale!? I’ve scoured the internet to bring to you four […]
Horrayyy! It’s Thanksgiving week! So much to be happy and thankful for this year. I am especially thankful to all you who read the blog, or follow along on Instagram and are a part of the fun, happy, encouraging community we have there. I truly love getting to share my life and my passions with […]
This week I’ve traveled from Las Vegas, to Dallas, to San Antonio, and back to Dallas, and will most likely be headed to Austin this weekend. And guess what, my body is worn out! So aside from guzzling tea like a mad woman, popping garlic pills, and lathering my body in thieves oil, I wanted […]
Most of us know what banana “nice cream” is by now right? It’s basically the greatest thing ever. You take bananas, freeze them, blend them (just bananas, nothing else) and it creates this creamy dreamy soft serve consistency. It doesn’t need any sweetener. It’s literally just bananas, or at least that’s the oober basic version. But […]
Incase you missed it, National Kale Day was October first. Yes it’s a real thing! There’s pretty much a national day for everything these days. It falls on the first Wednesday in October each year! So now you can be better prepared for next year 🙂 “What’s the trick to a good kale salad?” I […]
I get it. It’s Monday morning, you were in a rush, you wanted a quick breakfast fix so you reached for the box of cereal. It happens. We’ve all been there.

I am not good at slowing down. I don’t do it very often/ever. Just take a day to myself. Sit around. Do nothing. That is foreign to me. Why would I want to “do nothing” when there are a million things that I could do and be and see! Lucky for me though, today God […]
I have been LOVING this gorgeous Texas weather we have been having lately! This past weekend I couldn’t get enough of it. I ran a race with some other teacher friends from my school district for a charity event. I worked with walkbold for their first “sister session” to raise money for a “sister” in need. […]
Need something green for Saint Patty’s Day? Well you don’t have to feel bad about indulging in one, or two, or all four of these kaletastic smoothie finds! I figure I have had enough kale, just this year, to turn me green from the inside out, so really no one can pinch me even if […]
It’s Valentine’s Day! The day of love chocolate! Let’s face it chocolate will be eaten on this day…and it should! But it doesn’t have to be that icky processed sugar filled kind. It can actually be good for you! Yes you heard me correctly, chocolate that is good for you and you don’t have to fill guilty […]
