DIY Christmas Holiday Card Holder

Easy DIY Christmas Card Holder

December 2, 2015

It seems that I have the same dilemma every year: what’s the best way to display all those adorable photo cards we receive every holiday season? This easy DIY Christmas card holder solved that problem. In past years, I used a homespun creation that utilized a series of dangling ribbons, but that option is a pain to put up every year. So this year, I thought I’d come up with something that’s easier to store and set up. I already had a bulletin board that I wasn’t using and decided it would be the perfect base for my new Christmas… Read More

Finding Gratitude

Finding Gratitude

November 25, 2015

The first course I ever took as an undergraduate at UC Santa Barbara was a Black Studies Special Topics course. I sat in the classroom on my first day, anxiously waiting for the professor to arrive. I imagined he or she would be larger than life, a tweed-clad collegiate caricature, perhaps: inspirational, captivating, and dynamic, for sure. And then the professor entered. He slowly made his way into the room propped up by a walking cane, dragging one leg behind the other. With slurred speech, he immediately explained to us that he had suffered a stroke which had left him… Read More

5 Things I’m Digging This Week (11-15)

November 7, 2015

Happy November! This week was a busy one. I really wanted to work on some new recipe ideas, but between several appointments and dealing with some concerning health issues (my eczema has come back with a vengeance, and I’m not happy about it), I didn’t get to spend time very much time in the kitchen. There’s always next week, right? I’m hoping to share some new recipes with you soon. In the meanwhile, here are some things I’m digging this week:   1. I love this idea from A Beautiful Mess about hosting a “Friendsgiving” celebration every November. While Thanksgiving… Read More

Paleo Pumpkin Bread, Nut-Free

Paleo Pumpkin Bread (Nut-Free)

October 30, 2015

***I’ve made a couple tweaks to this recipe for my nut-free Paleo pumpkin bread (originally published in September 2014), so with pumpkin season in full swing, I couldn’t think of a more perfect time to share the new and improved version.***   I love autumn. I get giddy when I think about the change to cooler weather, the scent of apples and cinnamon drifting from a warm oven and the excitement of the holidays approaching. It’s pumpkin season, so I’ve been eager to get into the kitchen and have fun with all the fall recipes that celebrate this time of… Read More

13 Healthier Halloween Treat Alternatives

13 Healthier Halloween Treat Alternatives

October 19, 2015

Trick or treat, healthy and sweet? I know, I know, it seems contradictory to use the word “healthy” anywhere near the one holiday that probably celebrates candy and sugar more than any other day of the year. But for kids with food allergies, having to miss out on traditional Halloween festivities is simply no fun. So for anyone with food intolerances and sensitivities, or those following specific lifestyle diets (such as Paleo or vegan), getting to enjoy Halloween treats often means having to find healthier Halloween alternatives to conventional candy. There are also environmental and ethical reasons why consumers are looking… Read More

20 Inspirational Quotes about Strength, Resilience, and Faith

October 12, 2015

I’m so late in getting this post up! What can I say? Last week was just one of those weeks. It seemed to be a stressful and trying several days not just for myself, but also for a lot of people I know. I suppose that makes it an extra good time to share some of my favorite inspirational quotes about strength, resilience, and faith. I don’t know about you, but I’ve been able to find these little bits of encouragement rather useful lately. If you feel like you’re hitting a metaphorical wall, you just might find something useful here,… Read More

Definitive HIMYM Playlist, How I Met Your Mother, Blue French Horn

The Definitive ‘How I Met Your Mother’ Playlist (Best of HIMYM Music)

September 28, 2015

It’s been ten years since my beloved show, How I Met Your Mother (HIMYM), made its network premiere. Regardless of what fans thought about the series finale (and by the way, I’m one of those fans who actually liked the original ending…you can read why here), one thing I think we can all agree on is the fact that HIMYM features some pretty killer music. That’s why I couldn’t resist putting together this definitive How I Met Your Mother playlist, featuring 135 favorite songs from the series. Often transporting us from hilarity to heartbreak, the show’s use of music as… Read More
