I’ve won some pretty awesome prizes over the years using social media. Companies love to do contests but the applicant pool is often small making the odds typically in your favor. I was recently asked to help promote “A Healthier Way of Life” contest with Hain Celestial, a company whose portfolio includes many organic brands [...]

Ever since I discovered Life Alive, I have made my salads a bit different. Since then, I’ve become obsessed with including avocado, seeds, sprouts, hummus and beets in everything. Dried cranberries and raisins are also popular favorites that I typically throw into the mix. I know you are supposed to slowly reintroduce foods back into [...]

Have you ever had to host a dinner party with vegan or vegetarian guests? Since I pride myself on being able to make crowd pleasing dishes that are unassuming healthy dishes for parties, I’ve had friends come to me for advice on what to serve for friends with special diets. I’ve learned what corners can and cannot be cut [...]

One lucky blog reader or YouTube viewer will win these shades. The winner will be getting a preppy pair like mine, the tortoise with black lenses. This flattering frame [...]

Last night, I took the red eye home to Boston from Los Angeles. I slept for maybe 5 minutes. It was miserable. I had an aisle seat which is not a good seat to have on red eye because you have nothing to rest your head against, and you need to get up if anyone [...]

When it comes to putting together lunch, I always have a stand by. When it comes to eating clean, my lunch staple requires a bunch of fresh ingredients but typically I plan ahead. Most than often, I remember to buy enough veggies but forget a good protein! Luckily, I usually have a can of tuna [...]

It is hot, hot, hot! This morning I woke up early and got in my most difficult day of interval training. I did cardio workout #2 from my post earlier this week. Afterwards, I watched my heart rate monitor as I burned an additional 100 calories after I had stopped. That was fun. I needed [...]
