On my very first night ever in Boston, I ate at a Spanish Tapas place on Newbury Street called Tapeo. I absolutely loved this place! And subsequently took all visiting friends there for the next, oh 3 years?!?! I never go there anymore because apparently we’re on a quest in my house to never eat…
I hate salmon. I mean, no, I hate cooked salmon. Cooked salmon is like this year’s UK basketball team. You want to love it because you know it’s good for you, but ya just hate it! How someone’s most favorite piece of sashimi can be someone’s most hated fish when it’s cooked is totally beyond…
So this weekend in my house we decided that the chore….I mean joy, of cooking should be shared a little more evenly. Don’t get me wrong, I adore cooking! You know this. I love my job, but given the opportunity to build an amazing professional kitchen and join the cast of Travel or Food Network,…
If you’ve been reading the blog over the last few weeks or noticed my blogging, or lack thereof, in April and May last year you know that my job keeps me insanely busy. The nature of my job regularly has me on the road or at events where eating a healthy lunch is a real…
It has been an incredibly long and trying week and it is only Thursday! I feel like I’m pushing my body right over the limit physically in the gym and mentally at work. And gearing up for running 10 miles, when I currently don’t even run 1 at a time which is emotionally draining every…
When I was a kid we did very little eating out. We didn’t have elaborate meals every night, but we just didn’t go out because there was no time or someone was tired. To be fair to all of us that work hard and have a million things going on, my mom didn’t work until…
I was surfing the meat counter at Whole Foods not too long ago since I’m regularly looking for products I’ve never seen before. Especially since I dazed out a this month and forgot to pick up my CSA from Stillman. So for the next month, I’ll be getting meat elsewhere. But back to the meat…
On Monday, I asked my trainer, Anthony, to give me one of those “hardest workout of my life kind of workouts”. To which he responded with exactly that. Then Tuesday night I went to Crazy 8’s class. Now for those of you who imagine pansy group classes, I’d like you to erase that from your…
Since Monday, I have cleaned out my closets which produced two garbage bags of clothes to donate, grocery shopped, attended boot camp, worked 12 hours, trained, stayed up for a ridiculously late UK game, subsequently attended 6:30 a.m. boot camp and worked another 12 hour day. I AM COOKED! But for the salted dark chocolate…
With Thanksgiving quickly approaching, I am in quite a festive mood! And for us southerners, festivity and holiday means food! Needless to say, I’ve been looking forward to last night’s dinner since I went shopping for it on Sunday. I wanted something warm and seasonal and that’s just what I planned for the future of…
