a homage to adventure & plant-forward eating
Today was my official last day as a ski instructor. It was a perfect last day too. The sun was shining, conditions were great and it wasn’t cold at all. This was my fifteenth season on snow, my seventh on staff and my fifth as a …
Funny story, a few weeks ago (Maybe a few months ago?) I needed a few potatoes for a recipe and my mom picked up a gargantuan bag of russet potatoes. Well, I still have about three quarters of the bag in my pantry… Being more …
When it’s 30 below outside and the gloominess of winter is really starting to sink in we could all use a bit of a pick-me-up. It feels as though I’ve hardly seen the sun in the last few months (today being a rare exception) and I am seriously missing summer produce, especially the fresh fruit!

I’m a big time green smoothie lover and recently I’ve been doing some experimenting with new ingredients. About a month ago I ordered a few specialty health food items that are a little bit difficult to find around where I live. One of those items …
As the holiday season winds down, it seems as though cold and flu season is just starting to rev up, for me anyway. I’ve ben waking up to itchy ears, a stuffy nose and a nasty sinus headache. For the last two weeks I’ve been …
Lots of exciting news to share. First thing’s first, this past Friday my big sis left on her big Scottish adventure. Emma is on exchange in Scotland for the next five months.

I’ve been wildly searching Pinterest for Outlander-themed day trips that Em and I can do if I come over to visit. If any of you are Outlander fans and are going to be in Scotland anytime soon, I definitely recommend that you check out this pin. I’ve already sent it to Emma and she’s pretty hyped about it.

During this time of the year I think we all could use a bit of a pick-me-up, right? I’m usually pretty tired when I get home from work, but the fact that it starts to get dark at around 4:30 is definitely not helping to …
As November sets in I have found myself in need of a good pick me up. It seems as though we completely skipped nice fall weather and went straight into the crappyness of November. I mean, I can’t really complain too much about the weather because we …
It seems as though fall is finally arriving. With the last few days reaching above twenty degrees (Celsius that is) it has been an unusually hot October. Now that it actually feels like autumn, I think it’s best to say a formal “goodbye” to summer. Continue reading Ode to Summer + Chocolate for Breakfast
