Weekend’s Best – Cinnamon Sugar Almonds

Man I was so not a happy camper when my alarm went off this morning, but it’s Monday whether I like it or not, so I better just roll with it right?! We had a party every night this weekend, so I guess my body is a bit exhausted from all the foods and excitement! [...]

Chocolate Fudge Cookies

I had every intention of posting yesterday, but the tragedy that struck Connecticut left me so heartbroken, that I really had no words left to share with you guys. I will never understand why people take their anger and hatred out on innocent children, but we live in a sinful world and unfortunately things like [...]

I love Christmas time. And it’s not because of gifts, as I explained to you on Monday, that stuff is secondary for me. I love Christmas time because it gets cold and wet, the smells are amazing, the food is incredible, and most importantly? Everything looks beautiful.

For those of you who don’t know, December is my favorite time of the year.  I simply love everything about it. The weather, the clothes, the air, the smells, the festivities [...]

>Lollipop Lollipop Oh Lolly Lollipop!!

>This morning I woke up with an urge to just be better. Anyone know what I am talking about? I don’t want to be average, I want to be better. I am tired of going to bed wishing I had done more. Not just in terms of fitness, but in terms of life in general. [...]
