Hold onto your hats, people. I’m bringing back a recipe for white chicken enchiladas that I first shared on my old food blog back in 2009. It’s so legendary that it can’t be left to be forgotten on an abandoned corner of the internet. I will say that I had a moment of nostalgia (or [...]

Saturday Stuff + Trader Joe’s Haul
September 29, 2012 { 11 comments }Some people in this house are having very productive Saturdays…early yoga, errands, grocery shopping, house cleaning and major reorganization. And then there are others who prefer to spend Saturday lying down and watching others work.

Down Dog Tired
May 16, 2010 { 0 comments }A little over 24 hours later – including 4.5 hours of yoga – and I’m back. I survived yoga bootcamp and even went back for more today.
