Good moooorning from Sacramento! I’ve been home in my lovely little Nor Cal pocket of love for a little more than a week now. Remember how I drove home to surprise my dad for his birthday? Well, after that I decided to stick around for a while, spend time...

Hey guys! You have heard me bring up my two upcoming events a few times now, but I wanted to take a second to describe each of them since A) Juice Press is tomorrow, so if you want to RSVP, you’ve gotta do that ASAP!, and B) We only...

Peanut. Butter. Cup. Banana. Oats. Yes, it’s as sinfully delicious as it sounds. Minus the sinful, plus some extra deliciousness.  How did I decide I was in the mood for this delicious creation this morning? I can think of a few simple reasons… A) I woke up starving and...

You all know that my obsession with granola runs deep. First it was Whole Foods Chia Ginger Superfood cereal, then it was my mom’s homemade granola recipe, then it was a few local Upstate New York brands, and now it’s Laurie’s Granola Creations “Happens to be Healthy” granola. Happens...

A friend of mine is interviewing me this morning for an article about quinoa’s rise in popularity in the health community over the past several years, so I suppose you could say I woke up with quinoa on my mind. I have always wanted to make a sweet quinoa...
