Paleo Blueberry Coffee Cake

First things first - I am sorry that I teased this little treat the other day. With a promise to deliver on Friday only to be sidelined by Hurricane Barry! We are safe here on my little hill, but we awoke to no TV service, no internet service, and some shady phone service. So here…

Introducing…..

Hi guys! I am so excited to share this little video with you today. I am working with an awesome new company that is revolutionizing health and wellness, and I am so excited to share this with EVERYONE!

Last Nights Dinner – Today’s Breakfast

When I started blogging years ago I was mostly known for my breakfast recipes. I would have a new recipe basically daily that was "breakfast". After all, when you start a clean eating journey that seems to be the hardest meal to get variety in. I didn't want to eat plain oatmeal or eggs every…

There is nothing that can compare to a nice hot pastry with a cup of espresso on a Sunday morning. Well.....maybe a nice hot pastry with espresso on an exotic beach, but since we are sticking to family Sunday morning traditions we will go with my orange rolls, espresso, and my breakfast bar! Nice caramel…

Garlic Mustard Shrimp

Here in Louisiana we love our seafood. Being so close to the coastline we always have fresh seafood available to us. Of course if you walk into most restaurants, options are friend or covered in a yummy fattening sauce. While I love my Cajun dishes, this girl also likes to eat healthy! So I always…

Balsamic Roasted Sweet Potatoes

How many of you use the web/blogs for dinner inspiration? I know I do! I am always marking various posts with yummy goodness to help me plan my weekly menus. Of course there are a ton more "main entree" type posts available compared to side items. Which means I am always brainstorming what sides to…

Resolutions or Goals?

Something funny happens with age....the way you view everything changes! I have always been the girl that made new year resolutions. They usually always revolves around the same ones year after year. Lose weight, spend less, lose weight, organize my house, oh and did I say lose weight? Apparently that is a BIG one still.…

The Power Of Words

I am a firm believer that words are the most powerful force. Words have the power to break people down, to hinder, to humiliate, to confine people! They also have the ability to build you up, to heal, to help, and to keep you focused. So this year instead of making a New Years resolution,…

The Best Laid Plans…..

I have been carefully planning out my new year. I have our 10 day cleanse ordered, my Slim & Trim ordered to start right after the cleanse, and a list of must have grocery items to get back into the house. I decided a few weeks back to get my house back on a semi-paleo…

A Louisiana Christmas

To say our holiday was full of blessings and relaxing would be an understatement. For years we have always been "busy" for Christmas. After all, trying to fit in multiple family celebrations into two days can and is daunting. We have always had Christmas Day in our home. We started that when our boys were…
