If you are new here, I usually refer to the kitchen (it doesn’t even have to be mine) as ‘my happy place’. I love… Continue reading Walking through the Door…Big News!

Beautifully Broken
On Wednesday’s I attend a Bible Study at my local church. It is a small group of ladies from all different walks of faith and life. I usually toss a small snack in my bag to munch on during the session. This week, I grabbed a banana, which was just the way I like it,… Continue reading Beautifully Broken
Trying Something New
This week, I had the opportunity to try something new...baking a gluten-free, dairy-free, dessert. I have been cooking and baking without dairy for years, but gluten-free? This was something I had never attempted before. However, I knew it was something I wanted to become familiar with since so many of my friends and their children… Continue reading Trying Something New
Crumbs
Growing up, all of our meals were shared around our kitchen table. We didn’t have a dining room, fancy china, or crystal glasses, but my mom always had a tablecloth on our table. It was most likely to absorb any spills which occurred from having three active girls. It also protected the table from the… Continue reading Crumbs

Nourishment
If you have been reading my blog for some time now or know me, you know I love to cook. I refer to my kitchen as ‘my happy place’. I get excited every time I tie on my apron, sharpen my knife, and gather my ingredients. There is something magical about taking a couple of… Continue reading Nourishment
Training & Discipline
As a runner, I am familiar with training my body and mind for race day. In order to prevent injuries and to build endurance, I train for approximately three months prior to a race. Running is all about developing the self-discipline to ‘lace-up’ and find a rhythm that your body recognizes. When I run a… Continue reading Training & Discipline
