Inspired by the Scent of Cinnamon

Me and Mah Oats

On my morning walk with Sadie we pass a Panera Bread. Some days the wind doesn’t blow the bakery aroma our way… but on the other days we’re hit with the most delectable scent of cinnamon, buttery pastries and freshly baked bread. Today was one of the other days. As we watched people rushing in…

Snack Time Ain't Just for Kindergartners

September 29, 2009 by Julie 13 Comments

Balance

This tip may seem counter intuitive to everything you’ve read about weight loss or dieting. I should start by saying that I am not dieting. I am simply trying to live a healthy, active life that balances nutritious foods with rich desserts and other delicacies I crave. I used to feel like I couldn’t buy…

No Shrimpy Lunch

September 29, 2009 by Julie 5 Comments

Old Bay Seasoning

Last night I made a delicious pasta for dinner using frozen shrimp and lots of veggies. I had a good portion of the little crustaceans leftover and decided to make shrimp salad for lunch today. My mom used liberal amounts of Old Bay seasoning when she prepared various seafood dishes when I was growing up…
