A Happy Saturday + {Mesquite Scramble}

August 7, 2011

I woke up craving french toast yesterday. This doesn’t happen often in the morning (I’m usually more of a protein or smoothie kind of person in the a.m.), but as a “welcome back to Visalia” present I bought this ridiculous loaf of cinnamon bread from WinCo. and thought that my boys would love it for [...]

Now that is some serious BULL.

This is what I did to celebrate the Fourth of July. The main event of the family reunion…I think I may have the pioneer woman beat on this one. Who needs familial bonding when there is a mechanical bull involved?You know what I mean. I really thought I would need a visit to the chiropractor…not [...]

My 5:30am view of the mountains. For better or for worse, having a child has made me an early riser. I made “eggs in a nest” topped with some salted tomatoes and grapefruit on the side for breakfast. It’s been YEARS since I’ve made it, and since I’ve been swimming in the nostalgia lake, I [...]

It’s official. The Rocky Mountains are the place to be in the summer time. 75 degrees, with a mountain breeze and this view. (view from my mom’s chalet) I started the day out with a small breakfast. Simple: blueberries, wheat toast, and fiji water. (Oh, I heard all about my “expensive taste’s” when The Captain [...]

A little smarts for your morning. Yesterday started WAY too early. We were up and out the door by 4:30am to catch a 7:00am flight to Denver. I fully expected that the prime minister would sleep soundly in his car seat until we got to the airport, that didn’t happen. He was awake 70 minutes [...]

June 17, 2011

A few weeks ago I decided that Landon might need a sibling sometime. Of course, in order for that to happen, (Don’t worry–this isn’t going to be a post about THAT) I need to get into the best shape possible before I return to vomiting everyday, packing on another 50 lbs, and letting “the new [...]

Overhaul {Part 2 of 2} ::: What I am eating

March 24, 2011

Green Smoothies and going “Raw” Okay, to be truthful, I am not 100% raw. I can’t even imagine how difficult it would be to maintain that on a daily basis, but I am trying to incorporate more raw fruits and veggies into my diet. I bought myself a little dehydrator, and splurged for the “good” [...]
