Earlier this week one of my clients bought an iFit rowing machine, (YES girl! Get that activity while leading a busy life! Invest in yourself!) and was asking me about the iFit Nutrition program that advertises “a personalized meal replacement.”  I LOVE a quiz so, of course, I had them personalize a mix for me.  […]

It can be super hard to drink enough water in a day, especially now that it’s getting cold outside. I know that drinking at least two liters in a day makes my skin clearer, helps with digestion (read: prevents me from getting constipated), reduces the amount of chapstick I have to wear, and makes me […]

When I first learned the word “dietitian” I was 7 and my best friend had just been diagnosed with diabetes. The dietitian came into her room with these gross, rubbery food models that had lint stuck to them because she carried them around in her lab coat pocket and the rubber they were made of […]

When I was really little I remember learning about morality. I was probably being a brat and my mom was teaching me the difference between good and bad. I don’t know why I have such a vivid memory of this, but I remember thinking “there are good things and there are bad things and then […]

There’s nothing that feels better when I’m sick than my mom’s chicken noodle soup. It was awful getting sick in college and having to make this for myself, I was pretty bad at it at first. It took me a few years to be able to make chicken noodle soup that’s as good as my […]

My grandma and mom have ruined me. They always make our noodles for soup from scratch and now if I get a soup with dried store-bought noodles, no matter how good the rest of the soup is, I am NOT PLEASED. I’m a noodle snob and I won’t apologize for it!  Good news though, they’re […]

I made this chicken to throw into my chicken noodle soup the other day but I’m regretting not making another one at the same time so that I could shred it all up and put it on salads or sandwiches and to just eat throughout the week in addition to my soup! But it’s really […]

Ever since I was pretty little my family has had a tradition of going apple picking in the late summer. It’s grown up some since I was a kid (we go to a brewery for lunch instead of a fast food place where kids get free ice cream), but the day always ends the same—making […]
