Oh, to sleep like a baby…or a kitten (as the case may be)! Do you wish for better sleep? I know I sure do. I don’t have a sleep disorder (like insomnia or apnea), but I do find that my sleep quality is irregular – some nights it’s great, some nights it’s not. While our
Truth – I LOVE pickled things. Well…real truth…I love pickled things…EXCEPT for pickles! That’s what makes this recipe so awesome. It has all the stuff I love about pickled foods (crunchy, vinegary, tangy goodness), but it’s not pickles! And frankly, these onions & jalapenos are just so darn good on everything.

I just completed a backpacking trip in the Sawtooths where we covered 7 miles on Day 1 & 13 miles on Day 2. This was an amazing trip full of spectacular wilderness scenery & high mountain lakes.

Mobility work – just one more thing you’re supposed to do. But do you do it? Like Calvin said in one of my favorite Calvin & Hobbes cartoons: “Who’s got that kind of time?” Well, I’ll argue that making time for mobility work is one of the best things you can do to FEEL young.
Summer & burgers just go together. But “burgers” don’t always have to mean beef. This awesome salmon version packs a healthful punch (lots o’ Omega-3’s) as well as a fabulous taste. Eat ’em by themselves or in my 40-Min (well…almost) Homemade Buns! Delish! Ingredients 1-1/2 lb boneless, skinless salmon, patted dry, cut into 2″ pieces 5 chives,
There’s nothing like a fresh, soft, warm homemade bun. But with the time needed for yeast dough to rise…and rise again…who has that kind of time?! That’s why I’m so glad I found this quick recipe.
