One of my favorite smoothies I’ve ever had is from an old natural foods cafe on Sunset Blvd. in Silver Lake. In order to make this smoothie, you need a fresh young coconut, which is not something that I typically go out of my way to purchase. Enter Trader Joe’s with their “coconut smoothie” drink…

Links I Love
Every once in a while I like to share some stories, ideas, and products that I’ve come across recently. Here’s what I’m liking lately… INSPIRATION We Got This. This cause is near and dear to my heart. Alex, a former client of mine, was unexpectedly diagnosed with lung cancer last year. He’s an amazing, positive, and…
Eden’s Sap Granola
Happy New Year friends! Not only have we just cruised through the Christmas and New Year’s season, but my husband and I also celebrated our wedding anniversary on the 30th.

Some people hire out…
Bacon Apple Breakfast Sausage
Every Friday I make lunch for my coworkers. It’s my little “Undercover Paleo Operation”, showing regular, non-paleo folks how yummy it is to eat like a caveman! I made Paleo pancakes, a very simple recipe composed of banana, nut butter and egg. I also made eggs on a placemat, cut up some berries, AND made my…
Morning Gloomy Muffins
Living in the LA Basin, it is not often that I wake up to clouds and fog. But this weekend (my days off) it has been super gloomy out and it makes me: want to sleep want to bake want to be lazy want to pray for sun So, yesterday in my gloomy mood, I…
