This dish was so much fun to create and it’s one of the dishes I now dream about. In the past, I wasn’t a fig lover, but this dish transformed me.

Figs, lavender honey and honey comb from Andrew’s honey in and pomegranate from

Sometimes in life you need a little guidance.

If morning pages (which I love) is a bit much for you right now… a book like this might be the little nudge you need to create a healthy habit of writing and reflecting. I hope you enjoy it as much as I do.

As I pack this up to send to someone, I wondered if many of you knew about this amazing holistic remedy. Did you know that mastic gum has been proven to have a huge benefit in healing your gut along with probiotics, and other holistic remedies.
It helps in healing acid reflux, heartburn, ulcers and indigestion (symptoms of dyspepsia), H Pylori, along with other gastrointestinal issues.

“The antibacterial activity of the mastic gum was first reported about two decades ago [11]. In 2007, Paraschos et al. reported that the acidic fraction of mastic gum showed the potent bactericidal activity against H. pylori clinical strains and the most active compound was isomasticadienolic acid [12]” - NIH

Soups are always perfect during the winter. Truthfully they’re great anytime but it feels really special during the winter.

Do you ever put olives in your soups?

“Studies show that they are good for the heart and may protect against osteoporosis and cancer. The healthy fats in olives are extracted to produce olive oil, one of the key components of the incredibly healthy” - healthline

Special mornings with my daughter.

Best friends remind me of flowers. They come in all colors, shapes, sizes, and personalities. They bloom, according to their soil, how they were fertilized, and the seeds of their ancestors.

Every single one of my best friends are so different from each other. If I had a party and invited you over and introduced you to all of them, the one thing that you would notice is that they’re all fun, energetic, easy to get along with and they try to live life to the fullest. It’s what I’ve always been attracted to in people. Today I have blossomed a bit differently, and although I still love my fun, energetic bunnies, I also now enjoy speaking to the quietest person in the corner and pick their brain, the biggest nerd, etc. Making new friends is one of my favorite things today.

In this photo, my gorgeous and very strong best friend, Jeanine was getting married. I had always been told by all my friends that I needed to meet Jeanine because we would hit it off extremely well. When I finally met her, a very large group of girls were going I had no idea that night, she was in the group. My friends were right, by the end of the night you couldn’t separate us. In this photo she was getting married to her husband. She’s always been a firecracker like me, so I’m so proud of her for being such an incredible wife and mother. She knew what her priorities were and nurtured them. Thankfully her husband reciprocated. ❤️

Dopamine fact:
Did you know that calling a friend can give you one of the biggest dopamine hits? When was the last time you called a friend, shared your vulnerability, and laughed your butt off?

If your answer is that it’s been a while…. here’s your call to action, pick up the phone and just do it. Don’t think about it, the person that just popped in your mind, call them. I bet they will also be happy that you called. If they tell you, they can’t talk right now, it’s not about you, call them again next week and pick up the phone and call someone else. Share the dopamine! ❤️

I found my old Kindle tablet! I’m a huge fan of holding a real book, but it’s nice to be able to skim a book on a kindle for immediate information. I’m a slave to instant gratification - I’m human after all living a human experience, constant learning and reminding myself about balance, emotional regulation, the 80/20 rule of eating which in fact should be 90/10 especially if you’re stressed…

I’ve gotten so much better at not buying every book I want. If there’s anything that I’m definitely addicted to, it’s books. Not a bad addiction compared to many other possibilities 😜 but how many can we read at one time? How many do you read at one time? My confession, I read about three at a time. I want to gulp down as much info as I can and feel I never know enough. I’m working on that. This is where a kindle comes in handy as long as you’re limiting your screen time.

It sure was fun combing through the history of books I was reading 10-13 years ago.

Are you reading any great books right now? It’s my favorite question to ask!

Heirloom tomatoes! Did you know they are naturally non GMO as they are open pollinated. They also tend to have thinner skin which makes them easier to eat and more delicious.
