Guess what I had for dinner. Just guess. I’ll give you a second. Need a hint? Adam’s working late. Any guesses? If you guessed MUSHROOMS you’re right! Well, partially right. It wasn’t so much mushrooms plural, but one HUGE one. I found the most beautiful portabella mushroom caps at the veggie [...]

Can I just tell you all: Spring is by far the absolute best anti-depressant out there! Ever since Spring sprung, my mood has generally been MUCH better, I’ve been generally happier… and this is with next to no chemical anti-depressant in my system! While yes, the kids at school have MAJOR Spring fever and are [...]

Today was one of those days that my professors warned us about in “teacher school.” Apparently, there are some months where the full moon (this is all speculation here) causes middle school students to go from relatively normal (for middle school students) to completely whackadoodle insano student-like animals. There was one point today where I [...]

I woke up early, did some blog reading and a special-request blog header (go check out www.seejessrun.com [...]

You all “met” my friend Holly last week when she wrote a guest post about her gluten-free diet and her favorite recipe. There’s something you should know about Holly. When she says a recipe is good, its GOOD. I have NEVER thought a recipe she gave me was anything short of spectacular. Thai-style Pork Stew? [...]

Like last week when I re-made my Chicken Chili Blanco, tonight was an “oldie but goodie with a prettier photo-y.” Of course, I couldn’t leave well enough alone with my old Not-Sagna recipe… no, not me! I had to go all crazy-like and make a vegetarian spinach version! (Sorry, Holly, I know you don’t like [...]

After such a fun day yesterday, I was looking forward to having a relaxing Sunday… but when my friend called me at 10 a.m. to see if I wanted to go with her to the outlet mall, I of course said “yes!” and headed out the door! We hit up Jamba Juice which is a [...]
