ARE YOU READY FOR A CHANGE? You know that old saying about taking baby steps when you are doing something new, something scary, something you never thought you would or could do? Well, I have been taking baby steps for over 2 years. Never did I ever think those baby steps would take me so […]

The harder I try to stay on track with my fitness and nutrition during the holidays, the less I actually stay on track. Ya feel me? Let’s be real though, it’s HARD this time of the year to stay on track with your nutrition and getting your workouts in. And it is OK. But don’t […]

Do you ever pay attention to those RANDOM thoughts that pop into your head? No? Well you should. I don’t know what you think they are, but I KNOW that they are nudges… whispers from God. When you are stuck in traffic, when someone cuts you off, when you take too long to do your […]

Yesterday was one of those days that just got away from me. Before I knew it, it was 3 in the afternoon and I hadn’t planned for dinner yet. Luckily, when I buy my chicken, I buy LOTS of it and clean and freeze what I don’t use right away. I pulled a package of […]

Businesses have been slow, creativity has been non-existent, the kids have me running in circles, and my 94 year old grandmother passed away in the middle of the month. She and I were never […]

I don’t know about you, but I am a HUGE fan of any kind of jerky. In fact, when my hubby goes hunting, I instruct him to order the entire deer in jerky (and hot sticks… but mostly jerky). When I was growing up, there was this meat market… It was a little store in […]

I get it. You are busy. I am busy. We are ALL busy.   And yes, it takes time to prep out some meals for the week. But, don’t you have goals? I know I do.   Have you ever looked at the clock, realized it was almost 5 PM and still had no clue […]

Super Oats!! To the rescue!!!! So I started to write this post to help educate you on each ingredient in my Super Oats…. but then I hated the way it came out. The post sounded clinical and scripted, and I hate that. That isn’t me. I deleted every single word I wrote about it and […]
