today’s tip
Primal
Totally called it. The Pilot woke up, saw that the birds were still failing miserably at their nest attempts, so he built them a nest platform. Cribs, bird-style: He did a good deed, and I think it’s for our benefit, too… I would be traumatized if the baby birds fell out and crashed onto…

Hey guys! IT’S FRIDAY <3 Thank goodness, ehh? All I’ve got for ya is half a breakfast: Someone is going through a growth spurt, and things have been a little cray over here. She discovered a new octave in her repertoire and the first time she did it, I couldn’t help but laugh because she…

Rain on the windows, snow on the mountains a lovely, dreary Tucson day. It decided to jump down 30 degrees for a little wintery chill.. as long as it doesn’t stick around, I don’t mind 😉 Plus, we could use the rain… especially my cilantro that I haven’t watered in at least 4 months. It…

Sabino Sunday
Hi! Hope you’ve had an amazing weekend <3 Today was breakfast in bed, courtesy of the Pilot, and a lovely hike at Sabino Canyon- happy Sunday, indeed 🙂 The weather was perfection –warm with a cool breeze- and we did around 4 miles. Sabino Canyon is one of my favorite Tucson spots– I have no…

This is what can happen when you eyeball a baked goodie recipe: While we were at the store, I grabbed the ingredients to make more of Heather’s fabulous oaties (including regular unsalted butter. I still don’t understand why they make salted butter in the first place, and why I always buy it by mistake). After…

Over here, it’s an equal split between the early birds (Bell and I are wide awake) and the night owls. (Pilot and baby are snoozing away) Early bird gets the… waffle 😉 A quick breakfast with two Van’s waffles, topped with almond butter and jelly, a salad with Goddess dressing and an egg + tea…

About and out
After last blogging about living in cave mode, we were out and about all day today… and it was glorious. I packed up a little breakfast (nothing like a turkey sandwich in the morning) and we went to the squadron to say hi, 2 doctor appointments, a lab appointment and back home to free Miss…

I spoiled my dinner tonight…. in the best way possible. After this afternoon’s acupuncture appointment –which was much-needed. I missed it!- I went to Whole Foods to grab a couple of things and get a smoothie since it was on the way home. tropical green with mango, kiwi, pineapple, banana, spinach, kale and coconut…

Breakfast pizza
Two days in a row of seeing the sun rise (it’s amazing what an extra hour or two will give ya in the morning) and this breakfast. I call it breakfast pizza, but it’s more like an unrolled wrap. Same thing 😉 Brown rice tortilla with Dijon spread onto it, 2 eggs, goat cheese, mixed…

A lovely morning for chocolate (it’s hard to decide between dark chocolate with sea salt or almonds. This bar has both, which solves the dilemma. I always like a piece in the morning while breakfast cooks to wake me up) eggs and toast and a superfun Zumba class. I’m excited to get to take classes…

Slow cooker applesauce
Every morning when I wake up, and every night before bed, I burn a few candles. It’s a calming thing, and I think it makes the house smell so lovely. (Fresh Balsam from Bath and Body Works is my holiday candle obsession… I have 4 of the large ones dispersed around the house, as well…

Santa came early! I’d been lurking the oGorgeous website since the new bags were released, and the above silver bag was on my Christmas list. I was beyond excited when my friend Cassey offered to send me one- it just arrived today. As you guys know, I hardly ever do product reviews on the blog,…
