Savvy Eats 05/02/13 14:00
Tomorrow, I’ll turn 26. My twenty-fifth year was interesting one. While I was often sick, plagued by headaches and nausea, the year was still overall positive. We took some big trips: a 10-day jaunt to Oregon and Washington, a fun yet exhausting weekend...

Things are finally starting to happen in the garden. Check out what’s going on in the cold frames! I was concerned last fall when I planted my garlic. Some creatures were clearly burrowing in the straw mulch I had thickly layered over the cloves, and I...
A Savvy Week: Salads -

Savvy Eats 04/29/13 14:55
Now that it is warm and springy outside, I’m all about adding a little lightness to our meals lately. I want to keep our meals simple and easy, too, so we can go for bike rides in the evenings and still have a healthy dinner. Salads and half sandwiches...

Chorizo con Papas -

Savvy Eats 04/25/13 14:00
I didn’t mean to post chorizo recipes two weeks in a row, truly I didn’t. I meant to post gnudi, little ricotta dumplings in a sauce filled with fresh, springy vegetables. Except when I went to make them on Tuesday, I realized that the ricotta had gone...

I was recently sent Gesine Bullock-Prado’s newest book, Bake It Like You Mean It, for review. I own both of Bullock-Prado’s other books, Sugar Baby and Pie It Forward, and love them. Her books are always beautifully laid-out, albeit not as easy to navigate...

The Little Things #66: Biking Outside Again -

Savvy Eats 04/15/13 14:00
I started biking outdoors again last Monday with a ride up the hill to Dan’s office. Last year, the first few rides were rough; my heart fluttered, my muscles burned, I gasped for breath. The “big hill” is actually 3 large hills, stacked back-to-back, with...

Savvy Eats 04/10/13 14:00
In October 2011, I wrote about the best way to store bread. It is one of the few Brain Food 101 posts I’ve written based on food science & theory, rather than personal experimentation. In that post, I concluded that sandwich bread should be stored in a...

A few weeks after I started taking anti-gravity Pilates, my instructor Josh told us we were going to add something new to our routine: swinging, or “swooshing.” We stood with the hammocks in front of us, resting right at the hip crease, and walked forward...

The Best $15 Investment i Made In My Garden -

Savvy Eats 04/01/13 14:00

It’s that time of year again: time to start my garden from seeds! I’ve changed things up a bit since that first year. I found that keeping the seedlings on top of the refrigerator wasn’t nearly warm enough. I now keep them in the spare bathroom, which is...
