A year ago today, my husband and I were enjoying Scotland on what ended up being the trip – and Honeymoon – of a lifetime! It’s very strange to think about being so far away from home now, as in these quarantine times, a trip to the grocery store seems like an event. To commiserate […]

Today marks the last day of Whole30 Reintroductions! It has been an interesting – and enlightening – last 10 days. Before I began this, I was sure that legumes would be the no-problem intro, dairy would be the worst, gluten might be problematic, and non-gluten would probably be okay. Now that I have worked my […]

IRELAND We landed in Ireland to stunning weather. The weather was sunny and much warmer than in London and Scotland. It was like the whole of Ireland was welcoming us with sunshine and open arms! Even going through immigration proceedings was an enjoyable experience. It truly was like a scene out of The Quiet Man. […]
