All ‘choked up

Itโ€™s been wayyyyy too long since weโ€™ve had โ€˜chokes in the house: (Each little leaf dipped into Goddess dressing.. amazing) Last night, I grabbed some groceries (finally!), we had a couple of drinks: and the Pilot cooked up an amazing feast. The artichokes above Alexia sweet potato chipotle fries and perfect turkey burgers. I have…

We meet again

Oh hey, weekend. (Iโ€™m not sure what kind of flowers those are.. or how long it will be before theyโ€™re brown and crispy) So nice to see you again! Since Iโ€™m not back at work yet, the weekend is similar to the rest of the week, but way better with the Pilot home. We have…

Kitch Blitz

The weather here has been outta control gorgeous lately, so yesterday morning, Livi and I met up with Meara and her kiddos at La Encantada. Since weโ€™re in between seasons โ€“Tucson canโ€™t decide if it wants to stay spring until spring, or randomly turn into winter- no major purchases, but lots of walking and window…

Take it slow

Remember our mystery tree? Mystery solved: theyโ€™re oranges! My mom brought one in the other day, cut it open and we shared it. Super sweet and delicious ๐Ÿ™‚ Maybe we should start watering said mystery tree? Another fabulous baby meal: Chicken tortilla soup from my friend Meara, topped with a couple of corn tortillas, sliced…

Hey, hemp

Another one of these hilarious videos: (I still like the originals and the yoga one the best) It definitely came to mind when I busted these out a couple of days ago: hemp seeds! Long time, no see. When my doc recommended upping my fat intake, hemp seeds was one of his suggestions as theyโ€™re…

Unseasonable

Thank you so much for the Bella well wishes <3 After a day of snuggling, a bland diet of rice and boiled chicken (she LOVED that) and some Pepcic AC (per the vetโ€™s suggestion), she seems to be back to her Bella self. I loved reading your at-home yoga tips, too- canโ€™t wait to check…

Cookie Party

Nothing makes a house smell strangely amazing like the aroma of macaroons dehydrating and a pot of fresh refried beans on the stove. (Iโ€™ll probably do a bean tutorial sometime soon- theyโ€™re super easy, and sooooo good) It was an afternoon of dancing over here: I took a Zumba class at work, and a couple…

Hail, (salmon) Ceasar

It was one of those days when I wanted to work out, but the thought of getting to the gym was the only thing holding me back. You know, like getting dressed in normal-people clothes and driving there in the cold. I also hate the thought of leaving right when the Pilot gets home for…

Hole in one

Last night, I got sucked into this book: Source The lovely Jenna recommended it, and she pretty much never does wrong when it comes to nighttime Kindle reading suggestions. I ended up doing the โ€œone more chapterโ€ thing until it was way past bedtime, and now here I am, groggy and so excited that itโ€™s…

A glowing meal

Hi friends! Howโ€™s your morning going? Weโ€™re on our second day of gloomy doomy rain over here- I kind of love it.   Since I didnโ€™t want the weather to get in the way of Bellaโ€™s walking schedule, I took her to walk indoors to PetSmart. She starts squeaking like a little bird as soon…
