Another 2 in 1 post. First up- Pitting a Cherry- the elegant (and gadget-free) way. How do you get that pesky pit out of the cherry?

Kitchen Confidence - Courtesy Food 52 Hacking … Continue reading Pop the Cherry
No Vanna or Pat here, sorry! No, today's post is about two things- Wheel Pose (Urdhva Dhanurasana) and being fortunate... i.e. gratitude.

My yoga teacher, Jams, told me I needed to read this book called, Getting to I Do, by Dr. Pat Allen. The title is a … Continue reading Open Your Heart and Your Closet
