A recipe for my mom's (date) balls... The Whole30 diet is great and all, but damn it if I don't still crave something sweet after dinner. And bananas or berries get old REAL fast. Dates are my secret weapon, but not by themselves because seriously the texture is just EW and having to pick a… Continue reading My Mom’s (Date) Balls: A Recipe to Conquer that Sweet Tooth

If y'all haven't figured it out by now, I absolutely LOVE Mexican food. So how in the world could I manage the Whole30 diet without including Nachos? I just couldn't do it. In fact, during my last week of Whole30 I was eating these almost every day, and still not tired of them! Brand names… Continue reading Whole30 Approved Nachos
Did you know the average CEO reads 60 books a year? When my good friend @millenialfashionista told me this, I didn't believe it. But it makes sense, and just like Maria, I've challenged myself to read more this year. Bill Gates reads 50 books a year! And maybe I only read 12 books, but hey,… Continue reading My 2018 Book List
