Life’s a dance you learn as you go
Sometimes you lead, sometimes you follow.
Don’t worry about what you don’t know
Life’s a dance you learn as you go..
Sink or swim you gotta give it a whirl….
Take chances, step out of your box and comfort zone. Love can break your heart, but it can mend it too. You gotta just jump in feet first. I challenge you to try something new this week. I know I will!

Living with Celiacs for the past 8 years has taught me a lot about food. Seems no matter how careful you think you’ve been, it’s happens. You get sick. It’s a bummer and geez I’m tired of it. I get it and lesson learned. On the flip side, I’m very thankful! Thankful that because of my Celiacs, I eat better than I ever have. Ok, most of the time I eat better. I’m healthier because of it in many ways. Find your food groove and make it happen!  

Great salad for summer time! Quinoa, carrots, green onion, grape tomatoes, parsley, cucumbers, fresh squeezed lemon juice & a nice olive oil.

“Gratitude unlocks the fullness of life.  It turns what we have into enough and more. It turns denial into acceptance, chaos to order, confusion to clarity.” 

I get asked often “How do I calm an upset tummy”. I spent many years sick, sick all the time. Major cramps and long visits in the bathroom. So mix: Apple Cider Vinegar, honey in warm water. Now it’s not great tasting, but it sure calms a tummy in turmoil. I just add about a tablespoon of cider & tablespoon of honey. Makes a world of difference. Got any other great tips? Let me know so I can share. 

Found these at the local store the other day. They are hot & sweet. Kinda like bread & butter meets…..well with some devils spit. Defiantly makes ya sweat a little. I cut mine into smaller pieces fold in with a little meat & cheese. I am a Texan by birth and grew up eatting japalenos with just about every meal. So what’s hot to me my be to much for others. Proceed with caution.
