Some people just go for it. Without a second of hesitation, they can jump in and let the splashing water overcome the body. Me? Not so much. I'm more of a "stand-on-the-stairs-with-my-toes-in-the-water-for-20-minutes" kind of girl. Once my toes have fully acclimated to the water, I'll move to the ankles. Then the knees. And most of the time, that's far enough. Nine years ago today, a Memorial Day Weekend storm forced me to get wet in a serious way. Every year as the rains come to threaten ...

Whole30: Week 4
Four weeks of clean eating...wow! I'm slightly shocked that I completed this journey with out any major infractions. I'm so glad I did it, but so glad it is over. I'll share more on all of my conflicting thoughts in a wrap up post, but for now...the food. This week I continued the trend of being a completely predictable, boring eater, but at least I mostly enjoyed eating this week. This week started off with the kind of breakfast I could eat every day. I am madly in love with these ... Read More about Whole30: Week 4
Whole30: Week 3
It takes 21 days to break a habit, right? Twenty one days into my Whole30 and I'd say that's what I've noticed this week. My biggest bad eating habit, snacking, is almost a distant memory. It's so strange that while I used to eat a morning snack with my kids, snack during meal prep, snack in the afternoon with the kids and snack before bed, my desire to snack is completely gone. I used to think about food from the end of one meal to the start of the next, but now food isn't anywhere in my ... Read More about Whole30: Week 3
Whole30: Week2
I can't believe I am halfway done with Whole30- these two weeks went by fast! Last week, I characterized my Whole30 experience as a little boring. This week was hard. It was hard to eat so many eggs, It was hard to eat different types of protein. It was hard to eat so many vegetables. It was hard not to eat birthday cake. I thought about cheating or giving up completely more than once, but thankfully I stuck it out. Food has become strictly nourishment and not enjoyable. I'm not sure what's ...

Whole30: Week 1
There are times in my life where I have stood on the edge of the proverbial cliff knowing that one jump was going to make a dramatic change in the course of the rest of my life. When I took an extended trip to India, I was searching for signs on where life was about to take me. When I stumbled on 100 Days of Real Food, I knew I could never go back to eating a standard American diet. When I read The Life-Changing Magic of Tidying Up, I knew my life would never be the same. I've heard similarly ... Read More about Whole30: Week 1
