Almost Summer Cucumber Tomato Salad

Life Distracts-Just Some Highlights- 6 Months Worth!

My last blog post was from July 2017- Oh how life distracts from the things we love the most.  So much took place after that. The first being, well, I turned 40! I got a birthday WOD at the gym and loads of friends showed up (maybe by accident, maybe because they love me *shrug*)Read more

So long 2016- Hello 2017!

What a year! A lot happened in 2016, both in the world and in my personal life. Good things and bad things, sad things and happy things. I wanted to give up MANY times but I didn’t. I’m sure a lot of you felt the same way, but honestly, that is what got me throughRead more

Paleo Chili Bowl

My Simple Superhero Paleo Chili is probably my go-to meal when I don’t have a lot of time or a lot of money to spend on groceries. It can feed The Mister and I for a few days and we can eat it a couple of different ways. The other day I had just enough forRead more
