The Resilience of Fresh Mint
Even though my container garden has gone from bountiful to barren due to neglect, I’m grateful for the resilience of fresh mint… Coming in clutch for my morning smoothie! 🙂
Kicking Off Your Goals For the New Year When You’re a Week Behind Schedule!
During the week between Christmas and New Year’s Day, I came across a variety of articles detailing how to “start off the new year successfully” and social media posts sharing how people were using that time to “mindfully set their intentions and goals” for the New Year. That process sounded idyllic. It was exactly what I wished I were doing,…
Homemade Ramen Noodle Success
While living in Austin, TX, I discovered the wonders of Ramen… the soul food of Japan. And the restaurant responsible for my ramen noodle re-education—Ramen Tatsu-ya. The ramen noodle bowls served at Ramen Tatsu-ya are not to be confused with the ramen noodle packs of college survival years, complete with those sodium-loaded flavor packets. Ramen Tatsu-ya noodles are tender, served…

This was the case during my recent outing to the Austin culinary hot spot, Uchi. Uchi…
Working It Out
This is a blast-from-the-past blog re-post from my first blog, Words of Wellness. These tips still hold true, so I figured I’d share them once again! I enjoy watching a show on Fine Living Network called “Bulging Brides.” At the start of the show, the brides-to-be are lamenting the fact that they are unable to fit into their wedding gowns…
Take The First Step Toward Achieving Your Goals
Take the first step! “What first step?” you ask. That step that will lead you in the direction of your goals and dreams. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. in his infinite wisdom said, “Faith is taking the first step even when you don’t see the whole staircase.” It all begins with the first step. Each of us has our own…
My Favorite Homemade Dressing
I usually sprinkle nutritional yeast (for protein & B vitamins) and liquid aminos (essential and non-essential amino acids) on my salads in place of salad dressing, but thought to myself one day, ‘There has to be a recipe for a salad dressing that includes those ingredients.’ Glad to say I found one (that I love) on the Daily Garnish blog.…
