Light Mojitos with Honey Simple Syrup
Hi! Happy almost-Friday 🙂 Did you know tomorrow is National Mojito Day?? Regarding “food holidays,” I think some are pretty awesome (Chocolate Pudding Day!) and some are kind of boring. Apparently one day last week was National Eat Beans Day. Eat Beans Day?! This is where everyone in my [Hispanic] family (including yours truly) collectively shakes…

Salted Baileys Chocolate Truffles
Here’s a fun dessert option for your St. Patrick’s Day festivities this week–salted Baileys chocolate truffles! In a nutshell, I took my favorite vegan cashew truffle recipe and de-raw-ified it by using Baileys instead of almond milk. It was a wise decision, indeed. I LOVE St. Patrick’s Day. It’s always been one of my favorite holidays,…

The great block of cheese + your two words
Morning! Happy Humpday to ya 😉 It feels weird to be getting back in the swing of things on a Wednesday. Whenever we have company staying with us, I feel like I’m on vacation, too 😉 Today, it’s back to the usual to-dos and the mountain of laundry I’ve neglected. In other news, I’ve also…

7/26: Friday Faves
Hi friends 🙂 Happy Friday! I had a What I Ate Thursday post in progress for you, but taught 4 classes yesterday and it became impossible to remember to take photos of all my bites. In fun news, I got to team-teach a super sweaty Zumba class with Sasha at BreakOut Studios here in Tucson.…

Hello, Matzo
[I’ll either be doing the Wildcat victory dance or playing the sad trombone later today, so figured I’d post this now!] Some random photos from this week: Appetizers for Liv and myself (cereal and almond milk) Caro, ever so proficient in the art of relaxation work snacks (a lovely salad with leftover turkey…

Sushi Saturday
We’re on a roll….. We’ve been on a huuuuuuge sushi kick lately. If we can’t decide where to go for dinner, sushi has become our default. We had a sitter last night, so the Pilot and I decided to hit up Ra, which is one of our favorite spots. Margaritas for both of us: (it…

Raining Sweat Circuit
Hi friends 🙂 Thank you for all of the Caro tips! I can always count on you for great advice- just ordered her some antler treats to chew on since latest object of destruction was a bamboo spatula. Last night was girls’ night: Liv, myself, Bella and Caroline. The Pilot has his Master’s class on…

9/12: What I Ate Wednesday
Last time I posted an entire day of eats, I got a few requests to make it a regular thing. While it was fun, taking care of Liv and photographing my many snack/meals is a bit of a tricky combo. Plus… well, you’ll see. Some of the things I eat are not very pretty to…

Apple Pear Ginger Saketini Recipe
Let’s have a cocktail, shall we? The last time I had a dinner party at the house, I was pregnant so didn’t get to partake in the libations. Now, girls’ nights are when the hubbies watch the babies and my friends and I will enjoy a cocktail together at a lounge or restaurant. When we…
