My favorite kind of food to cook is equal parts hearty, healthy, and tasty. If I ever got a second book deal I like to say it will be full of only soups and stews.
This lentil soup that I made earlier in the week with pantry staples is full of protein, flavor, veggies, umami, and spices and warms you from the inside out.
It's been over a year since I started this journey of trying to drink less. I've had many months of "success" where I don't drink at all for months at a time then months when I drink once a week then weeks where I drink a few times in a row and it's all good because I'm learning as I go what feels best for my body and anxiety.
I was recently interviewed on a podcast and mentioned in passing how Amalia (6) is a very picky eater. Luckily for me, a professional in this department heard the podcast and reached out to see if she could help! I had a great call with Liz from The Feeding Academy and have since been putting her tips into practice at home.
As you're reading this, I am off gallivanting somewhere in New Orleans for Eva's bachelorette weekend. It's been a minute since my last bach party but Alex and I planned a very fun itinerary for our girl and our small but mighty group of fellow elder millennials.
My goal is to have tons of fun but also come home not feeling totally wiped and depleted which means, for me, making sure to move my body daily, hydrating like crazy, and drinking alcohol only one of the three nights.
