I mean, could there be a better combination? First off, I received two very exciting packages this week. There were two different pairs of shoes that I fell in love with on the David's Bridal website. The first pair you already saw. These ones I ordered quickly while I waited for Taz to finish up...

Too much to chew
I believe I bit off more than I can chew this week. I'd planned for this week, as you'll remember from my meal planning post. I knew that it would be crazy busy. But I thought I could handle it all plus cooking dinner for the family. And for the first couple of days I... Continue Reading →
Meal plan for a busy week
Mr. W and I have taken to switching off weeks for cooking dinner. At first it seemed like it might be overwhelming, but it's proved to be a brilliant plan. We might have to spend 7 days in a row cooking every single night, but the next 7 nights we get to be blissfully served... Continue Reading →
Paleo Coconut Pancakes
I'm constantly looking for ways to make eating Paleo more interesting. Dairy and grains usually make up a huge part of a regular diet, and a diet that is void of them runs the risk of being bland. So I was more than excited to find a recipe for pancakes at the Civilized Caveman (a blog... Continue Reading →
Carb lusting
I had a sandwich today. It was horribly amazing, possibly the best thing I'd eaten in a long time. Because I've been Paleo for so long, it occurred to me that I would regret this decision as soon as my protruding wheat belly caught up with me. But as the juice from the tomato dripped...

Himalayan Salt Sole
So remember when I went in for a massage a few weeks back, and came out with a recipe for Himalayan Salt Sole? Well, I'm on the third or fourth week of drinking a bit every day, and let me tell you, this is a magical elixir. First off, let me give you a recap... Continue Reading →
Heart and salt sole
The other day, Mr W and I were in such a stress rut from constantly needy kids on spring break and the endless demands from work that he gave me an offer I couldn't refuse. "Let's get massages," he said. "I'll pay." Ok, where did I find this man, and how did I get so... Continue Reading →
Tempting fantasies
I dream in chocolate. It taunts me. That luscious dark brown color, the smoothness in its texture. I want to inhale its aroma and then slip it in my mouth, savoring it as it melts down my throat in a satisfactory climactic explosion of cocoa bliss. I want to bite into salted truffles, guzzle thick... Continue Reading →
Brew your own Kombucha
I hopped on the kombucha boat a little late in the game in an effort to combat the cold season blues that were sapping me of all my energy. I’d heard about the pro-biotic and energy-inducing quality of kombucha, and was totally intrigued. However, fermented tea hardly sounded delicious. I’m not exaggerating when I say...

A personal battle with child obesity
One of the lowest points of this past year was when a reader left a comment on my blog, remarking that the Taz had gained a considerable amount of weight. I deleted it as soon as I read it, afraid that he might see it. And then I hemmed and hawed over that comment, whether... Continue Reading →
