So I polled a few friends last week and asked "What are two things you're currently doing to better manage the flow of your day?" Their responses were a gift. Each one was refreshing and great practices we can all take from and incorporate into our day.

Happy day! Just a bit of reflection and gratitude that offering whatever resources or talents we have can be such a gift!

On to the jam...I have a very real love affair with all things sweet AND savory. And I LOVE tasty condiments! That being said, a scoop of this jam on top of a grilled chicken salad or roasted veggies makes my heart sing!

While these chicken poppers may not be pretty, they completely make up for it in taste! Seriously, double the recipe so you can enjoy for dinner AND then have awesome protein snacks to grab out of the fridge later in the week.

Here's my gift to you today, besides reminding you to breathe: My 10 minute egg. Cooked perfectly every time! A perfect on-hand protein pack for on-the-go or being still! 

 Hopeful practice on these recent and not-so-recent life lessons...

Thank YOU for inspiring me!

Pairing with my love of great espresso, I am excited to share this tasty biscotti with you! Super easy to throw together and oh so versatile! This is one of my favorites.

One more tasty treat-filled way to use mint! If you, or someone near you, has mint growing like crazy this summer, this is great recipe to put it to good use. If not, these bites are totally worth a trip to the farmer's market or grocery store.

When I see someone stepping out to do the difficult or challenge themselves, it fuels me to do the same. To all of you staying the course, your glow is glistening! I am grateful.  Keep pedaling. Keep running. Keep pushing. Keep moving forward. The glow is worth it!

I say wonder because it is so full of flavor and the texture is incredible! It's grain-free, dairy-free, egg-free, and coconut-free. I look forward to toasting it to the extreme (some say burning it) almost every morning! 

Today, may we be brave and simply show up. Remember we shine brightest when we are 100% us and 100% present.

Gratitude is that 'salty' element in us that takes our circumstances from 'just okay' and elevates them. Let's be salty and share our gratitude with others. Stay connected!

Totally the answer to that sweet and salty craving...

Hey! I'm so glad you're here!
