Gluten Free Buckwheat Muesli

Wednesday, March 30th, 2011

Have you ever priced out muesli before?  It is pretty crazy how much stores/companies charge for “Swiss Muesli” or “Alpine Muesli”.  Honestly, the ingredients are not that expensive, and it is super easy to make.  Not many companies make a gluten-free version of it though, so a few years ago I started creating the muesli […]

Peach Rooibos Sun Tea

Saturday, March 12th, 2011

Yesterday I was talking on the phone with a friend and went into the bathroom to get something out of the medicine cabinet.  Just as I looked in the mirror he made me laugh and I was astonished!  I couldn’t believe my crows feet!  I had never seen them before.  I have noticed that I […]

Coconut Hot Chocolate

Thursday, February 3rd, 2011

It is cold here in Santa Fe!  I know that the Northeast and Midwest are getting a whole lot more snow that we have so far this winter, but…it was -2 degrees this morning, and didn’t warm up much more than that.  Apparently there is even a state of emergency here in Northern New Mexico, […]

Chocolate Pudding Smoothie

Thursday, January 27th, 2011

I am building a new business…  Preparing marketing materials, strategizing on fliers, business cards, how to best use social media…  Planning opportunities to network in person and connect with people in my community.  But, I am shy, so while I tread into new territory, and step out of my comfort zone to make new connections […]

Raw Apple Sauce

Tuesday, January 25th, 2011

Ever since I moved out West, I have been a big fan of Vitamin Cottage.  I find it more down-to-earth than Whole Foods, and with better prices on most items…and has more gluten-free, health geared options than Trader Joe’s.  So, a large percentage of my shopping is completed here… But I am definitely one to […]

Greensicle Smoothie

Friday, January 14th, 2011

Fresh fruit and veggies are feeling good right now.  Like many, after the holidays (the cold weather and the dark skies) I am ready for a cleanse.  Somehow in the last few months, chocolate, baked goods, and salty snacks have become a much more frequent ingredient in my daily consumption than I would prefer.  And […]
