Eat, Recycle, Repeat

Two things to give you a rocking Wednesday: a post about womanhood, realizing I’m not broken, and living with chronic conditions over at Paleo for Women. And Bacon Jam, upgraded. And a welcome for new visitors below. Read on! Guys. Seriously. Today, I am over the freakin’ moon because I’ve got a guest post on [...]

Crockpot pot roast? Easy peasy! Leftover pot roast? A dream for the taste-buds. Leftover pot roast bedded in a salad full of crisp spring foliage? WIN. Did I just use the word foliage in place of salad? Yes. I’m the kind of person who likes to eat foliage. Call me a Brontosaurus. I think the [...]

My mom and younger brother are visiting for the next few weeks, so I’m sure I’ll have some adventures to share quite soon.  In lieu of a traditional Easter Dinner, we’ll be traveling around Tokyo & Kyoto checking out cherry blossoms.
