A CHEF’S WIFE/ YOGA TEACHER’S GUIDE ON HOW NOT TO MAKE AN “ASANA” OUT OF YOURSELF…
OFF THE MAT AND IN THE KITCHEN!
Oil pulling 101
Well hello there Yummy Yogini readers! So sorry about the lack of posts from last week but my husband and I share a computer, like our car, bathroom and bank account, and he needed it for work, so by fault, Andy won! This week though, it's all mine and I'm back with...
…and the rest of the day to yourself!
Hope you all had a wonderful "top of the morning" this St. Patrick's Day as did I baking some Irish Soda bread for the third time this month! I talked to my Gram, of course, and she reminisced about making loaves of Soda Bread for the Elk's each...
Everything is just “peachy keen”
I'm writing this post today from my new favorite coffee shop in San Luis Obispo, called Kreuzberg, and it's reminding me of my favorite spots in Chicago and on the east side of Providence where I would spend hours at a time reading, writing and people watching. It's...
Eggplant Parmiganasana!
Good afternoon to you! Just a quick blog to tell you about the yummy meal I made last night... so if you don't already have dinner planned, this could be it! I've been craving Eggplant Parmigiana like you would't believe. Andy and I had an impromptu dinner date at...
The Avant-Gardener
Wow is it warm out on the Central Coast today! 80 degrees in March, go figure! Since we got all that rain, the state is finally looking like green velvet again instead of brown sand. And because the weather is so nice, I thought I'd take full advantage and start...
Fat and Catholic!
So yesterday everyone got all bloated from liquor celebrating Fat Tuesday and now everyone's heading to church to get their ashes. It's the Catholic way, no?! Although I went to a Catholic school, I haven't gone to church on Ash Wednesday in years, (sorry Ma) but I...
Céad Míle Fáilte!
One Thousand Welcomes to you all today! Or as my Grandma would say in Irish, Céad Míle Fáilte! Not much really happens in March unless you're Irish I guess, and if you're like my Gram, maiden name Cecilia Mulligan, you're getting excited about St. Patrick's Day. Don't...
Meet new friends but keep the old…
"One is silver, the other is gold. A circle is round, it has no end. That's how long I'll be your friend." It's my favorite time of year! The Girl Scout Cookies are here! How can you resist a box of Carmel Delights, Thin Mints, or Peanut...
Sweet dreams are made of cheese, who am I to diss a Brie?
"I cheddar the world and the feta cheese. Everybody's looking for Stilton!" It's no shocker that I am in love with cheese. Piave, Humbold Fog, Manchengo, Brie... and the list goes on. It's the best relationship I've ever been in and since cheese rarely talks back,...
Short circuits, tall results!
Happy Monday to you and thankfully, for some of you, it's almost over! Having been sick all last week, I've been playing catchup all afternoon running errands, picking up dry cleaning, and tidying up the house. Boy do I hate being sick, especially when you think it's...
Teach your children well
Overheard in the supermarket on Monday, "I don't have time to read with all the reality shows I watch, Bravo episodes I've taped and those Lifetime movies!" I literally laughed out loud when I heard this and the two women talking, both nose deep in an Enquirer...
It’s a broccoli “rabery”
Happy Holiday! I have the rest of the day off today so Happy President's Day to me! What's usually my longest day of teaching (five classes) had been shortened and I plan to enjoy every moment of it basking in the sun on this beautiful 70 degree day! I have about 20...
