While this may sound fancy and romantic, it actually became my fast food while traveling. Okay. It’s Italy. It was still wildly romantic! I did not grow up eating liver, and so I've never felt fond cravings for it. However, when in the form … [Read more...] about Easy Chicken Liver Pate

Why I Eat White Rice Instead of Brown

As fuel for half of the world's population, is white rice … [Read more...] about Why I Eat White Rice Instead of Brown

A Company I LOVE: Be Love Apparel
I spend a lot of time in hoodies. It's a beach thing. Or something. I just like the casual ease of the zipper and hood. Lately, it's really been just one hoodie - which is a bit embarrassing, because I've had it for many months, and I'm pretty sure I haven't parted with it long enough for a visit to the wash machine. I love it that much. Personal hygiene habits aside, I'm super excited to share this giveaway from my … [Read more...] about A Company I LOVE: Be Love Apparel

How to Prevent Computer Eye Strain WITHOUT Ditching Your Laptop
I spend hours on end sitting at my computer. Sound familiar? Apparently, American adults spends an average of 8.5 hours/day staring at one sort of screen or another.

Am I Green Enough? Confessions Of A Modern Eco-Conscious Girl
Eco-conscious living isn't just for tie-dye wearing, patchouli-burning, vegan-eating hippies. These days, "green living" has gone mainstream trendy.

Is recycling actually good for the … [Read more...] about Am I Green Enough? Confessions Of A Modern Eco-Conscious Girl
