healthified buckeyes.

May 18, 2012

You asked and you shall receive! These are truly chocolate, peanut butter balls of amazingness. I vividly remember biting into my first buckeye as a child at a neighbor’s holiday party. While all of the other neighborhood kids were busy playing a game of indoor tag and the adults making small talk and sipping on [...]

I’m fortunate to have been on a number of wonderful vacations in my life (London, Spain and Austria just within the past year!) I guess that’s one of the perks of being in a long distance relationship, eh? After spending the past week relaxing in Miami, I thought it would be timely to begin writing [...]

Hi guys! Does your “to do” list occasionally grow longer, not shorter, as the day goes on? That was me yesterday. I left the house at 7:30am and didn’t return for 12 hours. Granted it was a productive 12 hours but I was absolutely starving when I walked through the door last night. Instead of [...]

What to do with a leftover French baguette? I love them but they have a shelf life of about 12 hours before they’re impossible to bite into. Make this simple, gourmet egg sandwich for breakfast the next morning! The flavor is in the greens, which are tossed in a light dressing, as well as the grilled [...]
