I've been working on a gut healing protocol with my friend Kim of Root and Branch Nutrition for a couple of months now, and I am learning a ton as we go. One such lesson (among many) is that overnight oats are actually a wonderful food for the microbiome. And I am all about nourishing [...]

COOKIES! Who doesn't love a good cookie? Especially when it's got ooey gooey chocolate chips and the goddess of all nuts - the macadamia.

Considering I'm just 8(ish) weeks out from being a mom (woah), I'm starting to wrap my mind around the craziness that will ensure, especially in the first few weeks of breastfeeding, changing diapers, holding baby girl, and likely sleeping very little. Somewhere in there, it will be imperative that I eat. You know, food is fuel [...]
