Good morning! I hope that you all are having a great weekend- the weather in Jacksonville yesterday was pure bliss! We overdosed on sunshine and all slept like a dream last night. Just wrapped up our menu planning session for this week. My goal for our menu is to create a bunch of leftovers. Michael is not traveling at all...
Coffee has come a long way in our house. I have talked before about how early Michael and I wake up each day- our alarm goes off at 3:50 AM. I savor that time with him each day. We sip our coffee, watch the news (yes, there is news on that early 😉 ) and catch up with each other....
Good morning! I am sitting here sipping my superfood butter coffee (I have a post coming on this soon!) and just wrapped up our menu for this week. It is exciting to feel the weather warm up and already feel our menu trending toward the foods I love in the warmer months. This week is all about ease and speed....
I want to talk about juicing with you all. Nothing feels quite like the first few sips of a fresh, pressed juice. They provide an energy that you can’t get any other way! I was just speaking with a client today about this “feeling”. We both marveled at how you can feel each vein in your body wake up from...
Happy Valentine’s Day! Today is a day to celebrate the one’s that we love. It has been so much fun watching the kids sign their cards and get ready to spread some love in school today. Before Michael and I had Evan and Edie, we would go out to dinner in Boston or Charlotte. Get all dressed up, sip champagne....
It is hard to believe that it is almost the end of 2016. I love to spend some time reflecting on life before a new year begins- what did I love, what would I have done different and how big do I dare to dream for the next year. Over this last year, I have stopped living in a space...
Good morning, everyone! I have been talking to so many friends, clients and people lately that are worried about staying on track with their health goals over the holidays. There are holiday parties, cookies at the office, parties at school, cocktails and family gatherings. So much of the next 6 weeks centers around indulging and food. I know from...
Good morning! What a fun morning and afternoon I had yesterday celebrating the Jacksonville Beach location of Native Sun’s 1 year anniversary. I had the honor of partnering with them to create, demo and share a smoothie that was both seasonal and packed a superfood punch. The recipe reminds me of apple picking, leaves changing color and the delicious smell...
We are moving into our new house in 11 days and in an effort to lighten our load I am using everything we’ve got in the refrigerator and freezer that I can. When I woke up Saturday I found a leftover baked sweet potato and decided to create a smoothie using it as the star ingredient. I love sweet potatoes-...
I love creating salads in the summer. We live in the water and outside during the summer months and many nights don’t feel like heating up the kitchen at the stove or with the oven. Making this salad in the morning and then not having to do a thing for dinner is just the BEST! This salad is a meal...
