I work with a yoga studio here in Tennessee, VIDA Hot Yoga, as their lead teacher. We are gearing up for our second 200-hour yoga teacher training which [...]

Carb Me
August 20, 2013 { 15 comments }Y’all…I don’t know what’s been up with me but I have been craving carbs something fierce over the last couple of weeks. Tomato sandwiches… Sliders… Cookies…(and one AMAZING carrot cake whoopie pie from Whole Foods on Saturday night which I devoured it its entirety while watching Mad Men). Grilled cheese with avocado and a fried [...]

Hungry, Hungry!
August 16, 2013 { 17 comments }Thursday was one of those days where I was hungry all day long. Nothing satisfied me and I was hungry again an hour after eating a meal. I find the fluctuations in my appetite really interesting. Breakfast was another “Nutty Fruity” smoothie from Berrybrook Farm. I couldn’t stop thinking about how delicious the one [...]

What I’m Reading + The Best Summer Lunch
July 29, 2013 { 33 comments }Hi there. I’m back in Charlotte where it seems that things are exactly as I left them. I had to get away because I missed my parents and also because I needed a step back. I find that I have to get out of my day-to-day reality sometimes to gain clarity on the big picture. [...]

Trouble
August 16, 2012 { 28 comments }Last time I visited my grandmother she sent me home with this. Yes, a Costco-sized container of chocolate covered raisins – one of my biggest candy weaknesses. I tucked them away in the back of a cabinet and where they stayed unopened for months. Well, I spotted them last weekend and thought I’d just have [...]

Finally Kipping
July 26, 2012 { 30 comments }Thanks for all of the input on my hair color and recipe blog dilemma. The consensus was to go for the ombre trend (eek!!!) and to combine PBR and Bakin’ and Eggs. So, I have some work to do! I’m not sure how long it will take for me to figure out how to get [...]

Welcome September
September 1, 2011 { 14 comments }I hope the first day of September was great for everyone! September seems to signal the end of summer and bring the start of football, fall foods (hold on to your seats…pumpkin madness forthcoming!) and the promise of cooler days to come. It feels like a breath of fresh air. Personally, I am excited for [...]

The Things You Don’t See
July 14, 2011 { 14 comments }Recently I have received quite a few questions through email and comments on posts about my daily eats. The questions mainly focus on what I eat throughout the day, when I snack and if I show everything I eat on the blog. I most definitely think this is worth addressing for everyone. First and foremost, [...]

One of Those Days
July 13, 2011 { 22 comments }It’s been one of those days…but I kind of just have to laugh about it. It culminated with my iPod dying 10 minutes before my yoga class started this evening and Brandon throwing his back out at his bowling league. Yes, you read that right. My husband is in a bowling league and he threw [...]
