Here’s an odd development that I feel like sharing… I seem to have developed an aversion to coffee. This is frightening to me and I keep waiting for the phase to pass, but it’s been a week and I still can’t finish off my morning cuppa joe. Tea’s been doing the trick. It’s pretty bizarre that I could go from a caffeine worshiper to, well, whatever I am now. Hmmm. I’ve been alternating creamer types (soy, coconut, etc.) but I recently fell in love with Almond Breeze’s Unsweetened Vanilla almond milk. Love! Thanks to… Read more >

I have a new favorite cookie by the way. [Yes, I know I already revealed that’s how I feel about every single one of Nana’s cookies, but this time I may be telling the truth] The chocolate crunch flavor has a sinfully delicious rich chocolate flavor with the crunch of rice crispies mixed in. It’s fantastic. Anyway. Aside from the cookie food porn, I’m only popping in to announce the winner of the Nana’s giveaway. I really enjoyed reading everyone’s cute cookie memories. And other drool inducing comments. As for the randomly generated winner…congrats… Read more >

For the rest of you… This is where the good stuff is. Nana’s cookies have always been my absolute favorite. I’ve tried MANY dairy free desserts, and there’s always something a little bit off about the flavor/texture/whatever, but not with Nana’s. They… Read more >

I got a Brazilian Blowout today. Thanks to Groupon, it was nearly half price (although once I added in the tip and shampoo/conditioner it was basically full price). I’m happy to say, my ‘fro is now going to be well maintained with ZERO effort on my part…at least for the next 90 days… In the food realm, I had a really rough night. Top Chef had me sweating for a full hour, but in the end my boy Blais came through. Phew! It was nail biting and my poor stomach was in knots the entire… Read more >

In November I was bragging about how great the 80 degree weather was. And then in January I was happily soaking up the sun’s rays on the beach. And now it’s March and the weather is cold and dreary!? What gives? Since it’s LA, I know it won’t last too long, but I have to say, these stormy skies and rain clouds aren’t fun at all. Breakfast came really late on Saturday. After saying goodbye to my sis (until we reunite in Europe in May), Kyle and I drove back to Santa Monica so I… Read more >
