Have you ever noticed that when you feel some type or way or have a reaction towards something or someone, it’s automatically that person or that situation’s fault for making you feel that way? Okay, I know that sounded like a mouthful. But let’s think about it for a second. How freaking often do we blame others for how we feel or the reactions we have? ALL THE TIME. Why? Because it’s so easy to blame someone or attribute your feelings to someone else or something else instead of realizing that HELLO you are the one who feels these things because um…duh you are human and you FEEL THINGS.

Mexi-quinoa Casserole
Having my own apartment really gives me the urge to invite people over to cook for them. I invited my best friend over last week and was thrilled to be able to cook for her. This brings me great joy, especially now that I have adequate counter space and proper tools, which is so essential when having a stress free and meditative experience while cooking. But really the best part is sharing love through food. Seriously…food is love. Let’s love love love love more.
This cold weather really has me in soup mode so I was in desperate need to create something comforting, warming, delicious and not in broth form. Voila, this casserole was born. The best part? I’m pretty sure you have these things on hand and in your pantry making this an extra cheap, easy eat for dinner any day of the week. Grab that casserole pan and let’s get cozy!
The Power of “No”
No is one of the most powerful words in our vocabularies. To say no is to proclaim your power especially when it comes to declining something that can possibly drain or overwhelm you. I don’t think we truly realize how important it is for us to say “no” more often. We often overbook ourselves and do so much for other people that we forget to say yes to ourselves and our self care.
Tune in to my latest vlog all about saying no and how this is not only beneficial for your state of mind (hello sanity) but also your self care and freedom.
Wildly Wonderful Wheat Berries
I am a huge fan of cooking once and eating twice but in this case I can cook once and eat about 5 or 6 times (okay, maybe just a bit of an exaggeration). I just moved last week so anything that is simple to make and keeps me from spending hours in the kitchen (not that I mind that either) is absolutely a God send.
Get Sexy Probiotic Smoothie
I have the most sensitive stomach/gut. When my stomach is upset, the rest of my body feels it. I tend to break out, feel overly exhausted, grumpy or even just plain old fat and gross. Yes, I said but I know you feel me. One thing that always helps me feel balanced and ready to take on anything are some handy dandy probiotics. I’m talking about some sexy good bacteria to balance out the bacteria that already exists in your body.
