It was hard not to feel guilty about not blogging everyday or even every other day but allowing myself the break was the best thing for my body and mind. After a two week vacation, I got back into the kitchen this week and it felt great! Since my boyfriend is traveling this week, I had … [Read more...]

Who Needs Turkey When There Are So Many Sides
Thanksgiving is my favorite holiday and every year I travel to my hometown of Louisville, Ky to share in the festivities with my family. As a vegetarian, I haven't had turkey for almost 20 years, but I live for the sides many of which have become staples at our Thanksgiving table. A few months ago, I was dismayed to learn that my mom and dad would be taking my niece and sister on a Disney cruise … [Read more...]
Granolicious
I'll admit it, I'm a huge granola snob constantly on the search for the perfect concoction. When done well, granola is a hearty blend of whole grains and protein. Use it to top yogurt, a smoothie, fruit or eat it cold with your choice of nut milk and you've got yourself a nourishing breakfast or snack. Bottle it in mason jars and adorn with pretty ribbon and it makes a festive gift. While I … [Read more...]

The spices in the smoothie are warming and fragrant and the sauce on the veggies is creamy and savory. Chai Smoothie I found a recipe for a Chai smoothie on the Internet but it involved some complicated process involving seven tea bags. Soooo not my cup of tea! Still, it … [Read more...]
How I Survived Foodbuzz Fest’s Taste Pavilion
The infamous swag bag Blurry but you get the idea .. Who doesn't love a good tasting? My mouth waters just thinking about it. But the result can often be less gratifying than the experience itself. With so many different, well, tastes, we can confuse our digestive systems and the pace, excitement and standing are not conducive to a pleasant dining experience. I've been the victim of a … [Read more...]
Hunt for Healthy: Taste Pavilion @ Foodbuzz Festival
After the morning blogger sessions, I hobbled over to the Metreon with my boyfriend in tow for the Taste Pavilion. I was super hungry but and excited to get tasting. The hunt for healthy was on! First stop was Frog Hollow. These pears were so sweet and luscious. Best I've ever had! And their dried peaches were pretty awesome too ... yum. The Sweets Life demoed her Cranberry Bruschetta at the … [Read more...]
Saturday Sessions @ Foodbuzz Fest
I woke up bright and early on Saturday ready to enjoy a morning of educational sessions that would help me develop as a blogger but my feet had other plans. I had spent Thursday walking around the city attending a marathon of meetings for work in a pair of flats. By the end of the day my feet felt tired but when I looked down I saw massive blisters. Every woman has had a blister or two in her … [Read more...]
