I’m a twenty-something college graduate who works full-time.
I write about my lactose- and gluten-free lifestyle, my healthy lifestyle habits, my random thoughts, rants and so much more.
Stick around. See if you like what you see.
Pinterest Overwhelms Me
I love Pinterest. I could sit on it all day. On my vacation days I do some (read: 1 or 2) of my pinned DIY projects. Sometimes I use the smart tricks on there. And as you know, I love the recipes I can get from there without cluttering my inbox with foodie blog subscriptions. … Continue reading
Homemade Mat
When I first saw that I had April 1st off, I thought it was a joke, but it wasn’t! This gave me time to do a craft that I’ve been waiting to do for a whole, oh week. My friend and I were supposed to do it last week but we didn’t realize how long … Continue reading

Parmesan Edamame

I think my body’s metabolism has kicked up because I’m snacking more often and not gaining weight/inches. I’m trying to keep my snacks healthy; fruits, veggies, popcorn, hummus … Continue reading
Gluten Free Southwest Quinoa Salad
Note: I used the term ‘salad’ loosely. This is another one of those concoctions I came up with. No measurements, no recipe I followed, just pulled ideas from different places (read: different pins on Pinterest). Southwest Quinoa Salad Quinoa Back beans Diced tomatoes Avocado Red, orange and yellow bell peppers Cook the quinoa – I … Continue reading
