For me, it was't a matter of wanting to sleep; I was exhausted from my chronic insomnia. Those long nights were fun, but eventually the dark circles under my eyes caught up and I was stuck nursing the coffee pot.

This is my go to dinner when I want a meal on the table in under 20 minutes and I don't have a ton of ingredients on hand. When the noodles are done, I toss it all together with some smoked fish and voila, a smoked fish pasta masterpiece.

FODMAP stands for Fermentable Oligo-Di-Monosaccharides And Polyols. It's a mouthful for the very difficult to digest carbohydrates in foods that often result in gas and bloating.

With smoked fish, you don't even have to love fish to enjoy it. If done right, the fish will adopt a smoky, caramelized flavor that reminds me of candied bacon. This smoked black cod was done very right and thanks to Sena Sea.

I'm always trying to find ways to add more fish to my meals, and nobody makes it easier than SenaSea. I can relax knowing that their fish is full of healthy omega's and not full of GMO grains fed to farmed fish. Best of all, their fish tastes great!

We must step back, breathe, and support one another. Our time on this planet is precious. We only have time to love and to learn and there are people around us that need help in their journey.

This is a super, easy, colorful salad to accompany grilled meats and fresh fish. I love to toss it together with fresh herbs and crunchy peanuts right before dinner, but the flavors are best the next day.

While interviewing doctors in the area, I found my best chance for a natural birth would occur in my own home with a licensed midwife. I was looking for a midwife, because I wanted a birth specialist and a relaxed birth at home.

A beef bolognese by Ben the Butcher from Gambrel & Co, our neighborhood butcher. His bolognese is authentic and easy enough for the enthusiastic cooks out there like me.

Ben, the butcher will greet you with a smile as big as his shop. This hole in the wall brings you back to a simpler time, though I assure you, Ben is not simple. He is an over achiever and we are lucky to have him.
