Wow! Spring is almost here. I am feeling a positive shift in energy, friends. I really think things are starting to look up. Spring is Nature's New Year, so let's hope we have only good change in our future! I have a few things I am looking forward to, namely starting TWO cooking bootcamps this ...
Dinner Planner – Week of February 22, 2021
Happy weekend, friends! I hope you and your loved ones are safe. My daughter lives in Dallas and is currently housing several friends who lost power and water. If you are in an area of the country that is challenged by recent storms, I am praying that things return to normal as quickly as ...
Dinner Planner – Week of February 15th, 2021
The holiday weekend is upon us, but it doesn't have the same excitement as usual. Hubs is a bit grumpy because we always go to Palm Springs for Modernism Week during President's Weekend and, of course, it was canceled. Le sigh. I'll make some pink pancakes on Sunday and cut fruit and vegetables ...
Sweet Potato Brownies Recipe
Oh, I have been waiting with such excitement to post this Sweet Potato Brownie recipe. After I taught it in my classes, my students were making it like crazy, posting it, and everyone was messaging me for the recipe. The wait is over and just in time for Valentine's Day. Never say I don't love ...

Check last week's dinner planner for some fun Super Bowl Sunday ideas! In other news, I have two great giveaways happening on my Instagram feed, so definitely check those out. I am really loving the Caraway nonstick pans I have been using since the summer. They are ceramic-coated and non-toxic, ...
Vegan Chocolate Hazelnut Cookies Recipe

It was a wonderful week with no drama! I finished the last class in my 4-week Plant-Based Bootcamp and although I was sad to see it come to end, I am rolling right into my new course, Plant-Based 2.0! If you have prior knowledge of plant-based eating and would like to participate in this more ...
Taco Pizza Recipe
My favorite game day of the year is just over a week away. Yes, the Super Bowl! Whereas I may not be having a party or even watching with friends this year, Hubs and the kids and I plan on enjoying the game together WITH ALL THE SNACKS. Quarantine is hard enough. At least let us have our ...
Dinner Planner – Week of January 25th, 2021
This pandemic! Oy! It seems as though we are all having very different experiences, and much of that has to do with where we live. Let me tell you, LA is no fun. No fun at all. I don't blame my older daughter for going back to Dallas. And if I didn't have to film classes and such in my kitchen, ...
Ginger-Lime Spritzer Recipe
I have had sooooo many questions about my quarantine mocktail, and I have written this out sooooo many times in response to many, many DM's that I figured it was more efficient to create a post so that it would have a place to live forever. ...
Dinner Planner – Week of January 18th, 2021
Hello, Friends! I hope you are all doing well. I may be losing it. Today I tried to have a conversation with my Roomba, got strangely excited about new cleaning gloves, and considered getting into my pajamas at 5:00 pm. What a world! But I did have two amazing sessions with my new bootcampers ...
