In a world full of fake, I like to keep it real

  • Waffles Everyday

    Waffles can save the day. Their nooks and crannies create pools of syrup, while maintaining the crunchy edges. You can make them in so many flavors, shapes, toppings add ins, from savory to sweet. Heck….you can use them as sandwich bread!   These are so fluffy, light, moist and full of fall flavor, you may…

  • Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Muffins

    Soon all the bloggers, Instagramers, Facebookers, Pinners, and the like will be hosed down in orange. Pumpkin will be oozing from every social media outlet we encounter. Starbucks will be pumping out pumpkin spice lattes like Arnold Schwarzenegger pumps iron. So if pumpkin everything is such a popular flavor, why keep it exclusive to fall??…

  • It’s Not Them, It’s You

    There are a few things in life that when face to face with them, it’s really, really hard to say No to them. Case in point: Red Licorice. Red Vines to be exact for me. I love it. Everything about it. Soft, chewy, fruity.  I mean, lets be honest…who can only have one strand of licorice?? Just like,…

  • Reality is Oreo Cookie Cake

    Reality is, I need to reel in my diet. So what does one do if she isn’t going to bake a cake? She blogs about it. Its a logical answer. Still, it bites. Plus this cake is so good, I wanted to make another. Often we can find our desires at odds with what our current…

    Memorial Day is upon us. Lucky for us here in California, its nice, sunny and warm. My favorite kind of weather! Which also means bikini season is upon us. So I thought….Hey, lets make a cake to celebrate! I mean it has berries in it. So don’t get too worried. A piece is all you’ll…

  • Priority vs. Passion

    If you ever get a chance to read any of Mark Manson’s articles, I highly suggest reading them. Not only is he a talented writer, he’s direct and to the point. Brutal honesty. I love that, cause at the end of the day what else is left? One of my favorite articles was from October…

  • Celebratory Cake

    This weekend marked the end of my 12 week Jessie’s Girls Challenge. That 12 weeks flew by (as it always does). I had a woman once tell me “the days are long, but the years are short.” That statement always resonates with me because we all go on and on about how quickly time flies.…

  • On Giving Up

    I’m an eternal optimist, with a dash of sarcasm and cynicism. Above all else, my continual outlook on life is through rose colored glasses. Full of hope! Hope for this blog to take off. Hope for the awesome six pack abs. Hope that someday I will have someone who will do my laundry for me and…

  • Can’t or Won’t

    Don’t you hate it when someone says you CAN’T do something? I mean that right there is fighting words. Maybe I “can’t”, but that sure as heck doesn’t mean I don’t want to!! The moment we say “can’t” it triggers something in our brains. That fight or flight. The “Don’t tell me how to live…

    Success Rates

    A friend and I were discussing the failure rates of blogs, especially fitness blogs. Suffice it to say……I may not be here in a couple of months. Yep, everything seems to go downhill quickly for us bloggers. If you think about it, there’s plenty of us to go around….some 164+million blogs. So there’s that. But…
