happy, healthy & hot

It's a rainy Sunday…

good day to go out to breakfast.  And to do some online shopping! Here’s what I had for breakfast: Omelet with tomatoes, spinach and broccoli.  Fruit instead of potatoes and toast.  And remember, get real eggs, not whites or egg beaters.  The yolk is where all the nutrients are. Now, about the online shopping…

I was driving home from the beach…

blasting the new Britney song (love G-Eazy!) and sipping some iced tea. Not iced green tea with ginseng.  Not an iced matcha latte. Just plain old iced tea.  I had forgotten how much I liked it. And guess what…plain iced tea is pretty good for you! 

Summer skin SOS!!

We’ve all been there at one time or another…that dry, dull skin after a trip to the beach. Summer has been fun, but maybe a little too much fun.  Two beach trips and lots of pool time.  Even though I protected my skin I feel dry and a little less glow-y. Here’s what I’m doing […]

It was a lazy summer Sunday…

one that involved driving with the top down, sitting by the pool, and listening to music.  Totally love “Starving” by Hailee Steinfeld.  And of course “Cold Water” by my boyfriend Justin. I’m going to tell you what I ate. Why should you care?

My spicy little Southwest secret

It’s no secret that I love any food with a Southwest vibe…I can’t get enough Chipotle and Qdoba, and love local central PA places like Taco Solo even more. Anything with cilantro, lime, cumin….Mmmm!  Can’t get enough.  But I don’t always feel like getting in the car.  And sometimes I don’t want to go to […]

Magical multi-tasker…

is the best way to describe Alpine Pure Oil from Telluride Glow.  Just like Pharrell, this oil does it all!  Which makes me “Happy!” (ha!) I have been testing Alpine Pure Oil for the past month.  I keep finding new ways to use it on my face, body, hair and even my cuticles. This magical oil […]

It's roasting outside…

and I’m roasting inside. Roasting veggies, that is!  You’re probably wondering why I would bother to deal with a hot oven when it’s so crazy hot outside. Here’s why…the heat is making me lazy.  If I make a huge pan of roasted veggies, I can throw together a bunch of quick meals very easily. Also, […]
