Fall Spiced Granola

October 9, 2012 by Melissa

The other day my mom texted me that she had made my granolaagain. That the smell was filling her house.Sold. I hadn’t made granola in almost a month! One of my favorite things…but I hadn’t been home and sane long enough to make any. Sad, right?I thought so.Let’s fix that. And let’s make the house smell like Fall. Ok? Sounds amazing. Fall Spiced Granola 2 cups old fashioned oats ½ cup quick oats¼ … [Read more...]

Immunity Boosting Choco Maca Smoothie

October 8, 2012 by Melissa

So, that cold weather hit us like a brick this weekend. One moment we’re downtown enjoying an engagement party (wearing shorts), and the next moment we’re strolling home and a torrential downpour with sideways 40 mile-an-hour winds hit us! We were shoved against buildings, hit in the face with leaves and street crap, and soaked thoroughly. Then, it was really cold! And dreary! And cold! So, … [Read more...]

Fabulously Fit Friday 3

October 5, 2012 by Melissa

So, I’m sure you couldn’t help but notice the lack of recipes this week. Just one. A reallygood one, but still, just one. Sorry about that. I needed a break. But it didn’t really workout how I thought it would. I spent the whole “break” stressing about not posting a recipe. So I only took a couple mornings off…because I was pulling my hair out over other things in the meantime. If anybody … [Read more...]

Raspberry Oat Breakfast Smoothie

October 4, 2012 by Melissa

The truth is, I’ve been extremely overwhelmed and stressed out lately. Just ask my lovely fiancé or my tolerant mother, both of whom seem to still listen to me rant and rave about everything (often ending in tears).   Oh, I’m sorry. Have I ruined your sparkly vision of me? Did you think I have it all together? Well, I’m truly flattered, but unicorns don’t exist. Good morning. Yes, please. The only … [Read more...]

September Foodie Penpals Reveal

October 1, 2012 by Melissa

This month was another great one with the Foodie Penpals program! First of all, I sent my package to Sydney. She was super sweet and vegan and wanted some homemade granola that would remind her of the fall flavors she loves so much. Done! I had a great time making some “Spiced Apple Pie Granola” for her and hunting for her favorite flavors and healthy things in Trader Joe’s (blueberry milled … [Read more...]

Fabulously Fit Friday 2

September 28, 2012 by Melissa

This week didn’t go as fabulouslyas last week.   After a great week, the allergy sick bug hit me hard. I spend the weekend trying to have a great time doing wedding things with my mom, but all the while feeling tired, stuffed up, and like my throat hadn’t hurtso bad in a very long time. You win some, you lose some.   This being said, my focused shifted to wellness. Resting my body, … [Read more...]

I’m so excited about today’s breakfast recipe! I recently was sent* a brand new KitchenAid 5 Speed Hand Blender to try out in my kitchen. And, man oh man, this thing is awesome!!Good morning sunshine...I have a regular immersion blender that I’ve always loved, but it only has one blade attachment, which limits its uses (granted, it is hot pink...).

No-Bake Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookie Bites

September 25, 2012 by Melissa

This weekend, I went on another trip to hunt for wedding things. My mom and I were staying with a friend of hers and having a wild girls weekend…    You'd day-dream about these too if you'd made them and left them at home...    Wild, as in eating a bowl of ice cream in the evening, seeing a movie in the theater, shopping, and being in bed by 10:30. Woohoo, watch … [Read more...]

Fabulously Fit Friday 1

September 21, 2012 by Melissa

Wow! Another week has come and gone. My lovely fiance was out of town, so I was 100% focused on work and on training like a beast (focused nutrition!). I'm really proud of all of the hard work I put in this week, but honestly, I know I was preparing for this weekend...because I'll be going out of town (again). I have every good intention of being disciplined (except for a treat here and there) … [Read more...]
