She {hearts} Real {Fast} Food

Preparing traditional whole foods meals for our family can be challenging some days. I admit that I will often cut corners and we don’t eat as healthy as I would like to. It all just takes time to prepare, and sometimes I just don’t have that time, or I’m just too lazy to put in [...]

She {hearts} Garlic

Eating healthy fats is something that I try to do daily. One of the healthiest fats out there is coconut oil, because of it’s medium chain fatty acids.  I think I may have hit the jackpot as far as quality goes!
