Well, hello. How are you? I’m okay…just a little stressed this week. Thanks for asking…or reading. I didn’t realize how much stress affected our life until I learned how much it affects our weight. I’ve always been a calorie counting kind of gal. As a nutritionist I know almost everything about how food effects health. […]
My Favorite Low Glycemic Snacks
When I first heard about low glycemic eating, it sounded like I could eat whatever I wanted and not gain weight. Big eye roll. Sorry, wish it was true. It’s not. BUT…..the reason lower glycemic eating is important for those of us in peri-menopause and beyond is because our body begins to process carbohydrates differently […]

Can’t Sleep? Might Be Time for Change
All I need is a just a little more sleep,” I explained with a very cranky voice to Mr. H the other night. It was in response to a meltdown I had earlier after missing a work deadline. What I should have said is …I need A LOT more sleep. I’m ashamed to admit that […]
Golden Pico de Gallo with Chips
Golden Pico de Gallo is almost too pretty to eat. Definitely food art. I love any recipe that has lots of colors to tantalize the eyes and the taste buds.

Caprese Orzo Summer Salad
I love… love…love home-grown tomatoes! I plant my own tomato starters in early March and wait for the heat of summer to turn those little red balls of tomato-y goodness into delicious, sugary treats.

Light and Crispy Kale Chips
Homemade, light and crispy, kale chips are healthy, delicious and a fun topic of conversation. I brought these to a party last month and EVERYONE wanted to know how to make them.
