Every now & then I like to take my daughter to get frozen yogurt as an after-school treat. Usually I pair her favorite flavor with fresh fruit, like strawberries or bananas. There is a Menchie's frozen yogurt store near her school, which is a convenient after school hang-out for a lot of her friends & their moms. We love the friendly neighborhood feel of the store, the chalkboard wall where kids can draw & color on it, the … [Read more...]
Hitting the Reset Button with Soupure
About a year & a half ago, I cut out cheese & Diet Coke for 4 weeks in preparation for my family’s summer vacation to Hawaii. I also limited carbs, coffee & tea about 2 weeks prior to the trip.

B. Toffee – Milk & Dark Chocolates
I had a part-time job in college & one of my co-workers would make toffees & fudge every Fall/Winter. Around October, I remember asking Linda "What type of toffee will you make this season?" Every year I would look forward to her sweet treats. That was many, many years ago (like 20!) & sadly I don't get to enjoy her homemade toffee. That's why I'm so glad to have found out about B. toffee! B. toffee was founded by Betsey … [Read more...]
The Pure Bar – Organic & Vegan Snacks
I'm always on the hunt for healthy snacks for my family. If you follow me on social media, then you probably already know by now that I like to grab a snack bar after I finish a hard workout. That's not always ideal since these fruit & nut bars are sometimes full of sugar & high in calories. Also, do you ever truly know what's inside that energy bar?
