I can’ t remember the exact year that I discovered I was lactose intolerant but it was over 15 years ago. I switched over to soy milk and cut back on a lot of dairy products. Now I can handle a lot more dairy in my diet than I used to (cheese, yogurt and cooking…

Friday Favorites
Another week has flown by! My son had Vacation Bible School and my daughter is still in pre-school (it’s a year round school) so I spent the week chauffeuring the kids around. A visit to the Doctor for my lil’ guy who had a fever for a couple days, plus lots of errands getting ready…
Asian Noodle Salad With Peanut Dressing
The fun thing about being in charge of the food around here is that I get to cook whatever I feel like eating! Pasta with veggies tossed in a peanut dressing. That’s what I wanted. As I mentioned before, we had company over a couple weeks ago (our good friends from Texas) and when hosting any…
The Project: IMMERSIVE FITNESS ™
I love group fitness. I am not able to do it all the time because it’s hard to commit to the classes while coordinating the kids’ schedules, but I love doing zumba, yoga, pilates, body pump- I am open to anything really. This year the group class I focused on TRX which was something different…

Pop Quiz: How Much Do You Really Know About Gluten?
I posted this hilarious video to my Facebook page last month from the Jimmy Kimmel show where they asked some people in LA, who follow a gluten free diet, if they knew what gluten was and none of them had a clue! It’s pretty amusing (and embarrassing). A lot of people follow a gluten free…
WIAW {What I Ate Wednesday} RD Edition
Hi friends! Can you believe I’ve never participated in a WIAW post? Jen from Peas and Crayons hosts it and it’s where bloggers write a post about everything they ate in one day and link it up every Wednesday- mostly because it’s fun but also to share ideas and inspiration. I am normally too scatterbrained…
Homemade Coconut Cream Pie Larabars
Hi friends! It’s good to be back! I ended up taking 2 weeks off of blogging after my husband came home from his business travel. He’s had a light work schedule since he got back so I couldn’t get enough family time. It’s funny how it took no time at all for things to go…
