Some Mondays just call for Margaritas. Particularity the Monday that kicks off my official Birthday week. Time to break out the Mezcal. That’s right. These tangy, salty mind erasers are not made with traditional tequila… instead I like to use tequilas smokey-er , sexier (in my opinion obviously) cousin… Mezcal. Mezcal has a smoky flavor…

This easy coconut chicken salad was a delicious way to get some nutrients from both fruits and vegetables. I love using my air-fryer to…
In a Lone Star State of Mind
I just returned from an amazing long weekend adventure to Dallas/Fort Worth Texas. Justin and I took Christopher to the Lone Star State – He has always wanted to go. It was a trip of a lifetime and we had a blast. I have so much to say about our experiences, our tastebuds and…
