Read More →Goat Cheese, Beet and Jalapeño Flatbread
This is my healthier at-home version of our beloved Bo-Beau Kitchen flatbread: goat cheese, beet and jalapeño. AKA three things you wouldn’t really think to put together. But, this unique flatbread combination is so right. The component that helps bring everything together is a sweet onion-tomato spread. To make this, all I did was heat…

Nothing like a Tuesday night fancypants (yet easy!) dinner after a hot barre class. (Hot barre! Not to be confused with the Whole Foods meal, but equally delicious and a rare form of workout torture/triumph.) Ok, and wine too 🙂 Even though it was a little lonely preparing this meal by myself instead of with…

Hi friends! Let’s all do the Friday dance! Or the piñata dance? I’m just now getting a chance to get to the computer, since Livi and I had to rush on base early this morning. I had to get some blood work done, and since kids are no longer allowed in the base clinic (so…

This little Tuesday night tradition we have going on? Let’s keep it forever 😉 We wanted to have everyone over for dinner while the Pilot’s mom is here, so last night was pizza night at our house. I would have loved to make a *real* dinner, but we met up at Grant’s for an hour…

Whew! What a whirlwind of a morning. Up at 4:30 -I have no idea how that happened- to the airport, and here in LA after a few traveling adventures, of course. It feels like 5pm already 🙂 Before I set off for today’s events, I wanted to say a quick “hello” and tell you about…

I was so excited when Kath told me they’d be making a visit to Tucson. One of my favorite things about blogging is that I’ve made so many real-life friends through the blog world. Kath and I have been friends for a while -she was one of the first blogs I ever read!- and I’ve…
