The Best Easy Paleo Chili
Hi everyone. It’s been a week or so since I have written. Life is a little hectic right now, so I took a short break from blogging. Work is busy for both the hubs and me. My social calendar is a little more full than normal, which I am not complaining about. I went to…

We just got news from my favorite Houston weather blog (Space City Weather) that next week might have high temps in the low 70’s. All I can say is bring it on! It was 93 here in Houston today. Sometimes I miss the chilly October weather in Dallas. Alas, here we are…roasting in the humidity and…
Roasted Potatoes with Fried Eggs and Chimichurri

Lazy Saturday or not, I am in LOVE with…

Whole30 Steelhead Trout Avocado Breakfast Stack
It’s been two days since hurricane Harvey left my part of Houston. Cue mental exhaustion. The stress of 157 tornado warnings over a week’s time, coupled with our house almost flooding is hitting me like a freight train. Not to mention the constant inundation on social media and the news about people still flooding (yes, even…
