So, for lunch this week, we’ve been eating wraps. In this post, I told you about Alvarado St. Bakery’s sprouted-wheat wraps, which have been delicious. They’ve become the base of our lunch wraps. Here’s how we do it (sorry, no photo. Haven’t eaten one yet today!) 1 wrap Spread the middle section with a little [...]
For a snack today, I decided to try some kefir. (Which reminds me that I also need to do an introduction to clean eating post, since I’ve blogged about some pretty weird foods today, including kefir and chia seeds…and I’m about to add another to that list).

The cake: Blowing out the candles: With my husband: We had homemade margaritas! I created a mix beforehand, and guests added their [...]

(Well, not the decor, but at least the painting’s done!) Here are some shots! The living room color and fireplace: Dining room accent wall (Same color used on half-walls in dining room): You can [...]
