A few years ago I asked Mr. Hubby if our marriage was everything he thought it would be. He thought for a minute, laughed and replied “Well, I thought we’d have more sex.” I laughed back and said “Well, I thought we’d have more money.” We both gave each other a courtesy laugh, turned out […]

Progress. Sexy Ankles!
It’s been a while, so I thought I’d update everyone on my progress related to getting healthy. I was suppose to have my appointment with my healthcare provider this week to get my blood drawn, check blood pressure and discuss further hormone treatment – i.e. my four-month check-up. But, of course, I caught the flu […]
Thai Turkey Lettuce Wraps
Eric and I decided to host a small neighborhood party over the weekend. After living in our new home for six months, and only meeting a handful of neighbors, we thought it would be fun to get to know the families that live around us a little better. I planned the dinner but asked my […]
Happy Hormonal Holiday Season!
First – Happy Halloween! And, happy kick-off to Holiday Food Challenges! If you are like me, you have staved off the desire to eat all of the Halloween candy and didn’t have to run to the store and get more for tonight. Of course, I was able to do that because I only bought candy […]
How Toxins Make Us Fat
Hello my friends! Heidi here. How are you? I’m a little sad this week because I’m not fitting into my jeans. Sadly, I’ve gained more weight this year than the last three years combined. Oh, I know stress is a culprit and so are my changing hormones but Stephanie’s post last week got me thinking […]
Sausage with Sauerkraut and Potatoes
Where’s the sausage, sauerkraut and beer? It’s October for goodness sake! Aren’t you in the mood for comfort food? Oktoberfest style! Time to celebrate together. You don’t have to be German. Just grab a couple friends and a six pack of your favorite craft or German beer…and let’s make a traditional, but slightly “better-for- you” version […]
Women Apply 500+ Chemicals a Day
Did you know that the average woman applies over 500 chemicals to her body every single day? I certainly didn’t and when I heard this information during a television news broadcast this past week, I thought the reporter must have made a mistake. There is absolutely no way that I am in some way applying […]
Fighting the Good Fight
This fine Saturday night I find myself enjoying the newest Bill Bryson book (One Summer: America, 1927) and bubbling in a nice, hot, cortisol lowering bath and I’m reflecting on the fact that it’s been almost two months since I received my” insulin resistance” diagnosis. And, I’d be lying if I reported that it has been […]
Take a Stress Break
I needed a stress break. Took a vacation from it all and went to Orcas Island! Since its been so flipping hot here in California Eric and I decided to find some Fall. And we found it for one brief week. Cool nights. Red and yellow leaves. It felt so great to wear jeans, a […]
Warm Spinach Salad with Apples and Feta Dressing
Gosh, I love warm spinach salads. How about you? This warm spinach salad is super-duper easy to make and a great side dish to any meat entrée. Mr. E and I already made it twice this month and I’m making it one more time for you! Knowing it was going to be one of those […]
