With a very energetic and creative six-year-old plus twin toddlers plus my business plus my ongoing wine studies, I have a lot on my plate. And, while my proverbial life plate is quite full (and I think A LOT of you can understand that!), the actual plates that I eat meals off of can be rather, well, lacking some days. My husband and I do our best to meal plan and cook as much as we can, but our hands are literally full most evenings and it is a challenge.…

What’s one thing that’s made you feel good? via GIPHY Maybe it’s sending a postcard or letter to a friend, or leaving some fresh baked cookies on your neighbor’s doorstep. Perhaps you’re writing positive reviews for local businesses you would normally frequent, or making time to call your parents or grandparents more often. If you’re looking for an idea beyond the ones above, may I suggest a little online shopping with the Women’s Bean Project? Whether you’re looking for some snacks and staples to stock your own pantry or…

I love traveling to wine country, exploring new wineries, pairing food with wine, and — yes — tasting wine. There is just SO much wine out there from all over the world to discover. However, now that we’ve got three kiddos at home, getting out of the house for wine tastings and dinners is way more challenging. And travel? Welp, we haven’t been brave enough to try that yet. But, you know what? We found a GREAT way to discover, learn about, and try new wines … all in the comfort of our…

Oatmeal. But just because oatmeal can be basic, it doesn’t mean it has to be basic. In fact, here are three ways we love getting our cozy oatmeal mornings on. And not one of them is boring, in the least. Foodie and Fast While it can be nice to fire…

I also enjoy having a drink or two a few nights a week with my husband or my friends. And this can right here? Well, it put all my loves together and has made my sippin’ dreams come true. Yes, it’s HARD kombucha. Much like hard soda or hard sparkling water, alcoholic kombucha is now a thing, and with Flying Embers’ four flavors coming in at 4.5 percent alcohol per 12-ounce can with zero sugar and live probiotics, it’s a thing I really, really love (in moderation, of course). There are beginning to be more and more…

Matcha green tea has scientifically-proven health benefits and is considered a superfood that can help reduce cholesterol, improve brain health, and even help prevent cancer. But considering how popular — and beneficial — matcha is, I’ve found that a lot of people don’t know a whole heck of a lot about it, so I was thrilled to get the infographic at the bottom of this post from Matcha Kari! It’s got the true scoop (pun intended … and that’ll make way more sense once you…

Well, that’s what we’ve been singing here because Sun Basket came into our lives recently and it’s changed how we cook — and how we eat — for the healthier, the tastier, and (maybe best of all) the more convenient!
