Finding Balance: Winter Wellness with GNC PUREDGE

Many thanks to GNC PUREDGE for sponsoring today’s winter wellness discussion! As I mentioned in last week’s post, I am definitely struggling to steer clear of sweets this holiday season.  Couple that with the bubbly, mimosas, and wine at just about every holiday get together and I will admit that healthy eating (and drinking!) is not exactly happening right now.  Why is that when you need to maintain your energy levels the most, that you struggle the most?  Between the normal {Read More}

Review: Urban Remedy Metabolism Kit

Disclosure:  I received the Urban Remedy Metabolism Kit and meal replacement shake from Urban Remedy.  I did not receive additional compensation for this post.  All opinions are an honest representation of my experience using Urban Remedy.

Sweet Treats!

One of my favorite things to do during the holiday season is make sweet treats for my family and friends.  This year, I made candied pecans, chocolate covered pretzels, chocolate chip cookies, and my favorite… sugar cookies! So today, I thought I would share my sugar cookie recipe in case you are in need of a last minute recipe.  These cookies aren’t too sweet and just the right consistency.  Just be sure to keep an eye on them once they are {Read More}

Mmmm…. Cupcakes!

Today I received an e-mail from Hey Cupcake! as they announced their latest cupcake, the John Lemon. Mmmm…. Cupcakes! Photo Courtesy of Hey Cupcake! Now the reason I am mentioning this is because Hey Cupcake! is partially responsible for my obsession with cupcakes.  When I moved to Texas, the little airstream trailer on South Congress quickly became one of my favorite Austin eateries. Introducing the little one to Hey Cupcake! So as I type this post, I realize that I am clearly in {Read More}
