I feel like I’ve been away from the world of blogging forever. Truly. Such an abnormal past month for me. Food has been far, far away from my mind. In fact, the majority of food pretty much makes me sick. And I can’t go another day without telling you my secret and the reason why!…

Salmon Recipes for the Summer
It is getting close to the time where I can find my favorite Copper River salmon locally, which is a big deal here in the Pacific Northwest. It is the best tasting wild salmon in my opinion. For now I am collecting some salmon recipes because fish is the perfect summer meal. It’s light…

Even though I have come around to mayo-based chicken salads (although…

I have always been a small person, petite, yet muscular. I was into gymnastics, cheerleading and running growing up and I had a muscular build to show for it. I am not going to lie, I always admired the toothpick skinny girls, you know the model types? Not so much anymore. As I started running…

Corn and Tomato Salad & Meal Planning
I am sort of addicted to this salad. I was trying to come up with a side dish last week when I thought we were out of all vegetables. I found a few sweet peppers, tomatoes and shallots in the drawer of my fridge and I always have frozen corn in the freezer. I think…
