And I … Continue reading Easy Spinach Salad.

I’d have to consult my credit card statement, sadly. Full disclosure ~ I lost 15 pounds in November and I never felt better! I loved the food, I loved the way I looked, I loved the energy … Continue reading HELLO!
Got inflammation? “Got inflammation” is the “Got milk” of the 2000’s, ain’t it though? I like to use hillbilly words like “ain’t” every once in a while.

If you make delicious food, people will come to your house for … Continue reading Curried Carrot Bisque.
