I have been feeling a bit under the weather this week. I like to blame the roller coaster Kentucky weather, but the fact that Matt has recently been sick as well tells me that we’re sharing a cold. I absolutely HATE being sick. Not that anyone likes it, but I’m not a fan of laying …
So these Whole Wheat Oat Muffins bring back great memories. Any other millennials remember the YouTube video from like, 2007 called “Muffins”?

Being that my fiancé works out of town a lot, there are many nights that I have to fend for myself for dinner. My go-to solution to this conundrum is making a big batch of that is fridge friendly and reheating it throughout the week. While I do love a good leftover, sometimes I just want …

We’re right around the corner from swimsuit season, people! And, by right around the corner, I mean this week it is going to be in the 80’s all week here in Kentucky. There’s nothing quite like going from winter to summer in just a few weeks flat! If you’re trying to eat more healthily, but …
I think that we all have a weakness, a kryptonite if you will. Something that, when trying to eat healthier can bring you to your knees if presented to you.
