This post is sponsored by Arla When I was younger and much, much rounder, I remember learning the word for the baby carrots, celery sticks, and raw broccoli that sat alongside the other—let’s be honest, better—appetizers at parties: crudité. In my mind, they were taking up precious space. Filler, like the kale leaves underneath a...Read More

Hi friends! I hope you all had a great week! It has been scorching, fry-an-egg-on-the-sidewalk hot here all week. I’ve been trying to stay inside with the AC on so I don’t run the risk of sweat-staining all my shirts, but I did travel into the city for a fun Facebook Live video with MindBodyGreen and a...Read More

Happy Friday, friends! I spent a good portion of last week in Pittsburgh at DeLallo Foods.
