And three, I am nervous and apparently that makes me want awesome Greek food. Ok, well that last one is not so true. Yes, I am nervous, but when I am nervous I really just can’t sit still and I fidget… ALOT. Traveling makes me so nervous, I hate flying and the whole airport thing. Not sure what I was thinking when I thought the whole 1:10am thing was a good idea. I guess I still think it is a good idea because instead of wasting a whole day traveling I am wasting a whole night. Anyway, these sandwiches I made us today? I think they would be kind of perfect to pack up for lunch. Honestly, I kind of loaded these up with some seriously good stuff.

Finally I was home for more than a week, and she had a free day, so we were able to schedule a couple hours of uninterrupted time for just her and I. It was her pick on where to meet for lunch. It is true, I do love that place! I hope you enjoy this relaxing, floral twist on a traditional classic. post by alex michael may. photos and recipe adapted by leslie grow.

7 DIY Vodka Infusions That'll Seriously Upgrade Your Homemade Cocktails. (Photo Credit: Foodie with Family) Flavor-infused cocktails are always in order on a sweet summer night, and there's no better way to up your amateur bartending skills than with homemade vodka infusions. Not only are the DIY versions healthier than their liquor-store counterparts -- see ya never, artificial flavors! --they're also wildly simple to make. Test out flavor combos you've been itching to try, like blueberries and watermelon for a fresh martini or bacon and habanero for a spicy bloody mary.

First of all, I want to thank everyone who’s purchased a copy of the Healthy 15 for 2015 ebook I released last week. I’m overwhelmed by the response, and even more so by those of you who have said you’d rather wait until the ebook goes up to its regular price (I guess I priced the book too low?). To know I have such supportive readers even after so many years… well, it’s enough to make a girl tear up a bit.

Other staples after a wild weekend include: hot water with lemon and ginger (I make a big pot and sip on this all day), and nightly skin brushing followed by a detox bath.

I’ve been super busy this week playing catch up and so haven’t had a lot of time to cook. Just to give you an idea, this week I went to the grocery store on Monday. My grocery store run looked like this: EggsEzekiel breadhummustomatoesavocadosproutskaleshredded carrotscucumberassorted veggiesrotisserie chicken Always get these basics and staples when you go to the grocery store, that way you can always put something together when you’re in a pinch!

52 Healthy Midnight Snacks. Half Baked Harvest - Made with Love. I made you all some apple, rum and cinnamon pretzel goodness! You know, since I am slightly fall obsessed.
