We have been baking up a storm in this house. My urge to heat up the oven and make a Pumpkin Soufflé started when I came across this recipe on Balanced Bites. It's a super easy Soufflé recipe that we all loved. After that initial foray we modified it a bit, adding more maple syrup and even adding a maple flavored cream cheese. Delish! We used our own homemade pumpkin puree too. It can't get any easier than this recipe, that is for sure, but the it didn't feel or look like a Soufflé … [Read more...]
Pan Fried Pork Loin/Chops and Mashed Sweet Potatoes
Mmmm...comfort food. This is what I made for dinner a couple nights ago and it was delicious. I am no food photographer though so if my pictures fail to convey how yummy it was just take my word for it...or make it yourself. ;) It's easy and quick (about 20 minutes).

To make I just dredged the pork in coconut flour and sprinkled with salt, pepper, and Herbs de Provence from Mountain Rose … [Read more...]

Anyway, this week he … [Read more...]
10 Things You Can Do Every Day to Get Happy and Stay Healthy
I just got home from a vigorous CrossFit workout. When I walked in the door my hubby was just about to take off for the golf course but he always asks how my workout was. Today I think he was a little taken aback by my enthusiastic "Awesome!" It was a really tough workout and we had four mini WODs today (WOD=workout of the day). I did squats, pushups, mountain climbers, rope climbing, medball presses, medball wall touches, 100 meter sprints, calf jumps, supermen, bicycles, rowing, sprinters, hip … [Read more...]
TGIF! A Goddess Road Map, Resolutions, and Going Braless
It's a wrap! Time for some weekly updates and awesome links. I chose the photo above for this post because I have been channeling my innermost Groovy Green Goddess lately. I have been feeling nothing less than amazing and ethereal lately. My general happiness with every moment of life and my gratitude has skyrocketed. I have no "special" circumstances in my life that make this nirvana easier to understand so I think I am just doing something really right with my diet and health of late. The … [Read more...]
