My Big SURPRISE! I was inducted into the Guilde Internationale des Fromagers
As much as I've always tried to keep it a big secret, I am the founder and CEO of a boutique Social Media Marketing Agency. For years, I kept my two lives very separate, but as I become more and more open online, it's getting hard not to share such a big part of my life. A few weeks back, I got a call from one of my clients (and now very good friend, Sebastian (Seb) from Dorothy Cheese. He asked me if I could take a day or two and sneak off to San Francisco, visit them at the Fancy Food Show ... [ Read More ]
Our Holiday Staycation at The Swissotel
A few weeks ago, I found out rather suddenly that we needed to have our floors replaced and needed to be out of our house for 10 days. Two years ago, before Elia was born, this would have been super simple. Now, with my daughter involved, being displaced is much more difficult than it normally is. We travel a lot as a family, so on the surface, this situation was not much different. The main difference was length of time we'd be away and the need to stick to Elia's schedule as much as ...

I've heard so much about diet cola brownies, but with all the chemicals that coke can contain, I knew there had to be a healthier way to get the same great flavor. That's where LaCroix comes in! LaCroix provides the same carbonation needed for that fluffy, light texture, but cuts out all the not so good for you ingredients. I love hacking recipes to make them lighter, and this recipe removes the oil and egg from brownies making them a much healthier choice! Not to mention, Diet Coke contains ... [ Read More ]

Low-Calorie Bang Bang Cauliflower
Whenever I see the word "Bang Bang" on a menu, my mouth immediately starts to salivate. There's something so enticing about a sweet and spicy creamy sauce paired with something crispy and fried. Then, I remember that I'm never going to lost that 10lbs if I keep eating like that! Most of the time, I end up getting it anyways, but truthfully, I never feel good afterwards. One of my favorite things to do is create healthier versions of my favorite less-healthy dishes (have you tried my egg ... [ Read More ]
