Happy birthday Mom!
Happy birthday to my amazing mother! I know it’s quite cliche to think your mother is amazing and I know I’m super biased but my mother actually is amazing. She’s an inspiration to me and has been to others as well. She taught me so much about cooking, entertaining and life in general and made…

Day 18- this is hardly a challenge
More than half of the way through No red meat December and quite frankly I’m a bit bored. This is not challenging. This is not that hard. I don’t feel like I’m denying myself anything and really I’m not. Giving up red meat for 30 days is a lot easier than I thought it would…

It’s December 1st which means No Carb November is over! Thank goodness!!! The hardest part about no carb November was having lunch in the city. Food…

3 more days!!!
Argh!!!! I received a box of cupcakes today as a present but unfortunately due to my 30 day challenge I couldn’t eat a single one 😦 So I just licked the frosting off of one! It was delicious but not as good as the real thing!!! 72 more hours and this no carb November will…

The next 12 months…
When I first started this blog it was meant to be about triathlons and recipes- mainly because at the time my boyfriend (now fiancee) was into triathlons and I had a stack of cookbooks that were gathering dust and that he was teasing me about. I started in good faith dutifully cooking and writing but then somehow…
