Fighting Boredom with Healthy Food + Creative Living
As a bicoastal resident (California and Florida), I live with the reality that a fire, earthquake, mudslide or hurricane could wipe me out at any time. It’s not a pleasant thought, but it was our reality in 2017. California was ravaged by unrelenting fires during…

I love avocado on just about anything, but my Ultimate Avocado Toast recipe has to be my favorite.

Hoo Boy – If Santa is bringing you an Instant Pot for Christmas, then you’re in for a treat! Mealtime prep has never been easier. I’ve decided that the only limiting factor with the Instant Pot is keeping the pantry well-stocked with commonly used ingredients…

After I spent a nice tidy sum on Christmas gifts for my husband, he reminded me not to spend ‘too much’ because he may lose his new presents. Ah, dear husband, this year I have a game plan. I am going to strap a Tile onto everything you own!
No more late appointments scrambling around the house looking aimlessly for keys, wallets, golf clubs, sunglass cases, notebooks, etc. Simply open up the Tile App and find your items! (more…)
