Due to the fact that Rusty and I are packing and moving everything we own in two days, this post is going to be short and sweet. We're not leaving the bay area, just relocating to a new spot. The Bruner kitchen might just get a new look for you guys, but the same delicious [...]
So Rusty absolutely loves meatloaf, which is great because it's a relatively simple meal to prepare. BUT what complicates things is that he is incredibly particular about the meatloaf that he likes. I am pretty sure there's nothing that pisses him off more than dry meatloaf (ok that might be a little extreme, but this is [...]
This past week, Rusty and I took a trip down to Southern California to catch up with great friends at Deuce Gym in Venice, stay with my amazing cousin in the Cactus Casa, and have a blast celebrating our wonderful friends’ wedding. It was a treat to say the least! This trip reminded me of [...]
It'll be no surprise to anyone when I say this... People spend too much damn time with their noses in their phones (while not everyone is guilty of this, I'm speaking of the majority... At least here in the Silicon Valley). I think it's gotten too easy to forget about living and loving actual life [...]
If you didn't get a chance to read my post yet on the ketogenic diet and whether or not it might be a good fit for you, take a moment to head on over HERE. Put simply, ketosis refers to fat-fueled metabolism – a metabolic state where the body gets energy from fat. The beauty of [...]
Ahhhh summer. It's hard to beat this time of year; sunshine, tank tops, flip flops, cold brew, bright produce, and The CrossFit Games... What's not to love? First, let's talk about the CrossFit Games. 1 day is done, and what a day it was for my good friends, Jason Khalipa, who is holding his own [...]
The CrossFit Games are upon us, and this year is going to be extra exciting and anxiety-provoking. We've got good friend, Jason Khalipa, going for gold as an individual, and our NorCal team competing for their spot too. On top of that, I'll be pulling hard for my friends Margaux Alvarez and Camille Leblanc-Bazinet (among [...]
I have been blessed with a pretty outstanding family. My parents are just the best, and I couldn’t have asked for a better childhood, or adulthood for that matter. My mom is the most selfless person I know, and my dad comes over just to hang out with my husband, which makes my heart so [...]
So, I've been drinking A LOT of bone broth lately, and it's delicious! More (or maybe equally) important, though, is the fact that bone broth is loaded with nutrients and has innumerable health benefits - from healthier, firmer skin to healthy bones (more on this later). Just to clarify, this is NOT the bone stock [...]
One of my favorite things about summer has to be Sunday Farmer's Markets with the array of delicious (not to mention gorgeous) produce, loaded with nutrients, and just asking to be enjoyed. The phenomenal selection of freshly picked fruits and veggies is only made that much more awesome with the fact that I get to [...]
