Oh no, he’s back. After four days away at a Blogher conference, I’ve rekindled my relationship sugar. I wasn’t looking for him but he slipped back in my diet like a long lost boyfriend hoping he could restart that love affair. It just that sugar makes us feel so good—at first. In fact, we are […]
Beer Marinated Lemon Grilled Chicken
I’m crazy for this dish. Just give me a big piece of crusty bread, a cold beer and a few pieces of this Beer Marinated Lemon Grilled Chicken and I’ll do my happy dance for you. Its sweet-sour-savory-finger-licking yum! You know it’s a good one when every taste bud in your mouth is engaged. In […]
Grilled Fish Taco Bowl
Do you love fish tacos? Then you’ll love this Grilled Fish Taco Bowl. I also like to call this my naked burrito. All the yummy fish taco/ burrito fixings without the tortilla wrap to get in the way. We don’t need the extra 250 calories from the tortilla anyway. I just serve it all […]
Cool News About Hot Flashes: Weight Loss Helps
It’s hot here today. I think it’s at least 95 degrees. Great if you have time to spend it at the beach but not if you just moved into a new home (5 weeks ago now) and still have boxes sitting in the hallway. I am making a pledge, right now, to get those unpacked, […]
Poached Eggs in Fresh Tomato Basil Sauce
Ta da! Here it is…one of my favorite weekend breakfast recipes, Poached Eggs in Fresh Tomato Basil Sauce. It’s kind of like ”Italian-Style” Huevos Rancheros. Aren’t there similar recipes like this in every culture? You might also know this as “eggs in a basket” or “eggs in purgatory.” It’s just that we love our eggs! […]
Can Mother Nature Cure Your Hot Flashes?
I was blow drying my hair when my first hot flash hit. My heart rate accelerated and I could see the red-skin flush moving slowly up my neck. Little beads of sweat broke out on my chest, back and brow. However, in the weeks that followed night sweats visited my body more frequently than the […]
Greek-Style Bulgur and Garbonzo Bean Salad
Last year my son Ryan asked me what to do with bulgur wheat. He had purchased a 5- pound bag of bulgur wheat at a local farmers market near his college campus in Santa Cruz and he didn’t know what to do with it. He just needed a little inspiration. All I have to say […]
Feeling Better with Bioidentical Hormones
Two years ago night sweats, lack of sleep, PMS, brain fog, forgetfulness, lack of energy, weight gain and irritability were all part of my life. I was only 49, but felt 70. But, today life is good due to bioidentical hormone therapy. In fact, I’ve never felt better. Diet and exercise definitely helped, but they […]
Why I do Natural Hormone Replacement Therapy
I’m often asked by friends why I decided to go this route. The natural hormone replacement therapy route. After all, it seems more “natural” to do nothing and to somehow just “tough it out” and let nature take its course. For many women, this route, the doing nothing route, works just fine. But for others, […]
Lemon Lavender Iced Tea {Recipe ReDux}
I’m a water and ice tea kind of gal. If you’re thinking that might get a little boring, you’re right! Finally, I found a lightly sweetened alternative. A cold tea-like drink that doesn’t have all the calories or sugar, like soda or lemonade has, but still has flavor. Oh, and without artificial sweeteners, too. You […]
