Ricardo Legorreta love!
And Lin discovered a little sandy arroyo literally in our backyard at our Santa Fe house!

Excited to be on a Sober Curious journey this year and possibly indefinitely!
Sober curious simply means that you’ve chosen to avoid alcohol for personal or wellness reasons. It involves curiosity about the reasons fueling your desire to drink and the way alcohol affects your life.

This low-calorie soup is quick and easy but full of flavor!! It also keeps extremely well for easy lunch or dinner throughout the week. I know, I know, cabbage soup doesn’t sound that exciting, BUT this is one of my favorite vegetable soup recipes. Don’t worry, we aren’t doing a cabbage soup diet around here, I just eat this cabbage soup because it is nutritious, delicious, and always hits the spot. It is the soup I turn to when I want to feel good and detox from a weekend of gluttony.
And it is hearty and oh so satisfying!

I had received so many Granny Smith apples in my Local Farm bag so I decided to make an apple cake! I love baking with this particular apple variety because they’re nice and tart and don’t get mushy in the oven! And I love this apple cake recipe from Sue Moran. I have made it before and was so in love with it.

Tzatziki is a salted yogurt and cucumber dip that’s made of strained yogurt, shredded cucumber, olive oil, garlic, lemon juice, salt, and herbs. Authentic Greek tzatziki is most often made with sheep or goat yogurt. Along with the other traditional ingredients, I love fresh mint and dill !

As I’ve gotten into my 40’s, birthdays have taken on way more personal meaning to me. They’ve become a welcome moment of self-reflection — a time to take stock and set intentions for the next year of life. I love the way that birthdays call us to stop and think about the passage of time; while it can feel uncomfortable, being more conscious of how fast our lives go by helps us carpé diem and live each day like you truly mean it. That’s truer than ever this year — as I turned 43 in February.

I’m endlessly inspired by hardworking passionate farmers and the foods they grow and how what they do makes our lives so much better in so many ways!! And that’s why I am such a fan of Local Farm OK. I first introduced you to them earlier this month in this post here.
So very impressed with all the abundant greens I have been receiving. And the veggies and fruits are just so fresh!

Lin’s son, daughter-in-law and grandchildren live in Appleton and it’s such a charming place, especially in the winter because I really love snow!! Plus it’s so close to Door County . Door County is on a peninsula between Green Bay and Lake Michigan, in the state of Wisconsin. It’s known for its long shoreline and many parks. Peninsula State Park on Green Bay is home to sheltered Nicolet Beach, with its calm waters. On Lake Michigan, Newport State Park is a wilderness park crisscrossed with trails. Potawatomi State Park, in Sturgeon Bay, is fringed by limestone cliffs. Door County may conjure up spring cherry blossoms, grazing dairy herds, and myriad tourists. However, winter has its own special memorable charm.

I’m here to help you find the best lunch in Tulsa Oklahoma today!
“Best” is different for all of us…and if you’re anything like me, it changes from day to day. Also lunch is the, sadly, most under-represented meal in T-Town. We all know that brunch is the glory meal, and gorgeous weekend dinner restaurants get lots of attention, but lunch gets overlooked. But we have so many great lunch spots in Tulsa as well as terrific lunch spots!

New Orleans holds a special place in my heart! It quickly became one of my favorite destinations after spending quite a bit of time in Louisiana traveling there for work when I was an Account Executive for Aveda.
The Crescent City is truly a magical place.
I really want to visit next year during Mardi Gras!
