I’ll keep this short and sweet since the real eating is going down tomorrow.  We had our second Thanksgiving this past weekend and it just made me even more appreciative of the life we have here in Davis.  Our friends are fun and the kiddie chaos was all kinds of cute.  Plus, the food was legit. Here’s my bestie the hostess. [My misspelling just autocorrected that to hottest.  Ha] You can only see half of the food in the above photo but here’s my plate… Good stuff!  Our friends are (beyond words) amazing with their… Read more >

Hippie hygiene musings

A few years ago I switched from face lotion to plain old oil.  I have used coconut, jojoba, and kukui (and maybe others I can’t recall).  I have always loved Caribbean Sol’s products, although you can get coconut oil everywhere these days.  Then my MD gave me crap (rightfully so) for not using something with spf.  So now I use oils in winter and something with spf the rest of the year when I’m actually in the sun for longer than parking lot walks. I previously blogged about block island’s sunscreen because it’s totally awesome.  And now they are diversifying… Read more >

Hey guess what is finally gone? YUP.  I ate an entire tin of bark (by myself) in under a week.  I’m guessing it was 4+ pounds of chocolate.  Should I be proud of this or mortified?  The worst part is that I actually considered going back to WF and getting another when this one was donezo.  WTF is wrong with me?  I need to only order chocolate from Thrive so I can keep myself in check.  Oh, and while we are on the topic of my habits that I should probably get a hold on… Read more >

Deep dish polenta casserole

I have a limited rotation of breakfasts that I make for Kyle, usually strata or coffee cake (with days of cereal in between if I can’t get my act together in time).  It’s because those are the easiest things to make and then last a while which streamlines mornings for us all. But then this idea came to me when we had all the ingredients for a strata but no bread.  Polenta!  And to make it last a while, why not make it in a big baking dish?  YES.  YES YES YES.  And it was so… Read more >

I accidentally went to WF and bought a tin of bark.  I don’t know why I wandered over to the cookie/dessert bar section of the store, I think I was looking for an individual Califia pumpkin almond milk because I wanted to try a smaller size before committing to the big one, but anyway…they had all these different yummy kinds of bark.  And then it was like do I buy a few for $$$ or do I get my money’s worth and fill the tin for the $13.99.  Ummm…get my money’s worth yo!?!  So you… Read more >
