Recently I was contacted to try some gluten-free Euforia Thousand Layer Cake. You might have seen it featured in Real Simple magazine’s Holiday Gift Guide. I can see the individually wrapped snack sizes being great for taking on the go or giving as party favors. [...]
Have you ever read a book that inspired you to action? The kind that upon reading the last page, you close the book, put it down, then get up and do something about it? That’s what this book did to me. I had heard people [...]
In keeping with my cookbook giveaway, I thought I would share some other fantastic cookbooks that have made it onto my wishlist. Some I have looked through, some I own, but most of them I’m just jonesin’ to get my hands on. At the end [...]
The very first day I arrived in New Zealand, my friends took me to their favorite little cafe in Auckland: Revive. It’s a great little vegetarian cafe in the heart of the Central Business District that serves up fresh, healthy, and ridiculously delicious food. Case [...]
I’ve always said it’s the hole-in-the-wall places that generally have the best food. And that’s definitely what this place is. A hole. in. the. wall. I likely would have never found this place were it not for Groupon. And even then, I almost passed it [...]

This isn’t necessarily a book I would have picked from the bookstore shelf myself. Admittedly the cover is incredibly cheesy. This came as required reading for staff meetings at work. And I was actually pleasantly surprised at how much new information I learned from it! [...]
Made by Hand Searching for Meaning in a Throwaway World by Mark Frauenfelder I happened to find this book on Amazon’s homepage. I was definitely intrigued, especially by the book’s tagline, so I put it on my WishList. I love making things myself, using recycled [...]
This is not your typical chain burrito joint. It’s a local, independently owned burrito joint that features local meats and healthy options. And whoa, is it good. Baja is well known in Nashville by the college scene and young crowd. It’s located at the edge [...]
Even though this local restaurant isn’t local to me anymore (being located in Memphis, not Nashville), I couldn’t resist reviewing it. It has fast become a place I HAVE to visit whenever I’m in Memphis. This is not your typical cheese-laden, fajita-sizzling, monster margarita Mexican [...]
