Do you ever have days when you eat everything in the house and you still feel unsatisfied? And then as you are frantically trying to find your hidden candy stash you scream inside, “WHAT ARE YOU DOING? STOP EATING!! WHY ARE YOU STILL EATING?!” Even though I normally stay within 5 pounds of my healthyContinue reading “STOP EATING!”

{LOL}
Sometimes in life you just have to “LaUgH OuT LoUd”. That is, at YoUrSeLf. Stop taking yourself so SeRiOuS (and trying to impress people) and just roll with it. This happened to Lara and I a few months ago. We were trying something new on our blog – using a SmArTpHoNe to record a video. WeContinue reading “{LOL}”

Biggest Bang For Your Buck {Take Stock}
From time to time its good for us to TaKe StOcK of our life. Where we’ve been and where we’re going. What has worked and what has failed. What stays and what goes. I find the end of the year is a good time for this. January one is synonymous with new BegiNniNgs. And here is the questionContinue reading “Biggest Bang For Your Buck {Take Stock}”
From the Confessional: Eating, Weight and Self-Image
Have you ever found that no matter what “wEiGht” you are, you find yourself either struggling with food, unsatisfied with some area of your body, or feel overwhelmed with pressure to stay skinny after you lost weight (especially if people noticed and made a big deal about it!)? The more women I talk to, theContinue reading “From the Confessional: Eating, Weight and Self-Image”
{Peace With Food}
This past April, on the Suede Sofa, Lara and I began a 6-month challenge encouraging our readers to pursue a dream or a goal. My PeRsOnaL ChAllEnGe was to have PeAcE WiTh FoOd.

If you’re in the habit of attending PiTy PaRtiEs for yourself, why not try having a GrAtiTuDe PaRty and CouNt all the BleSsInGs you have in your life. MaybeContinue reading “{GRATITUDE PARTY}”
Can You Relate?
I sat down to clean my indox this week. After reading some recent emails Robynn and I had written to one another, I wondered if you might be able to eMpaThiZe with some of our topics of conversation: Robynn: “I’m procrastinating this morning. For the past several months I feel like I get into aContinue reading “Can You Relate?”
From the Confessional
Has LiFe turned out the way you thought it would? I have to confess that mine is very different than I had “planned”. After we got married I envisioned living in the country, only working from 8-5, and having all the time in the world to play with my kids and make pErfeCt sugar cookies withContinue reading “From the Confessional”
It’s Called {Life}
From time to time I do a CoOkiNg shOw on our local cable channel. Because I live in a small town (pop. about 9,000) the viewing audience is relatively small. The last show I did featured home-made AppLe bUttEr and PoPcoRn BaLLs. The popcorn balls were a recipe my dad would make when I was a KiD. BecauseContinue reading “It’s Called {Life}”
