A little Ancient Egyptian wisdom for you out of a piece of literature dating back to the Fifth Dynasty, describing the purpose of my favorite Ancient Egyptian Goddess, Ma’at (Truth & Justice). I keep my conscious personal growth in alignment with truth, always checking myself so I don’t go wrecking myself. _ Of course it’s a longer, more rugged, sometimes painful journey, but the roots run deep and strong. When…

My chin pimple, whom I’ve named Frances, and I have something to say to you. ?? _ Sometimes a path of resistance seems provocative because we’re hammered with messaging all day long about being uncomfortable for the win. May I interrupt that to say, not all resistance is “good resistance” for you. Sometimes when you resist or procrastinate it’s a sign that maybe this thing or this way to the…

Check it out! Seared Ahi, Cauliflower Rice, Tahini Dressing with radish, scallion, cucumber, ginger, sprouts, and lime. YUMMMM from @modelmealskitchen. _ A lot of people think they want/need a private chef when really they they want/need a meal service. I receive a lot of emails from folks asking about my services, and the truth is private chef fees are not comparable to simply paying for a plate of food. Private…

Rainy Sunday Shakshuka, Lazy Edition. ? Fresh Tomatoes. Tomato Paste. Onions. Garlic. Jalapeño. Cumin. Cinnamon. Cloves. Cayenne. Cooked in Duck Fat & EVOO. Topped with Cilantro. Green Onions. And Lakonia Seasoning. _ Paired with a strong brew of anise tea + black seed oil, annnnd some thoughts: When I find myself in disagreement with another person, or if I can sense they feel unheard, I like go through a 3…

What happens to you when you accidentally eat gluten, Mary? Oh, you know. A total body meltdown. No big deal…or actually, I mean, a HUGE deal. Like, I look pregnant and my skin is on fire deal. There’s also the headaches, the fatigue, the joint pain, annnnd the reach for gratitude because it’s also reminder that this was my baseline for so many years before learning about my intolerances. _…

Rain gazing on my balcony, sipping on a custom “Mary Blend” from @foursigmatic. Fungi-Friendship perks. I ain’t complaining. ? Don’t know much about shrooms? Well, they’re launching a free mushroom academy in February which I am nerded-out-excited to do so I can learn more too. _ Lots to accomplish today, a few appointments, and I’m taking my sweet time, still in sweats. ? I measure joy by my ability to…

Just a bowl of change, right? Today it caught me in a moment. I paused. Took a deep breath and smiled, almost chuckled. _ There was a brief period in my life where this would have been a gold mine to have in my possession. A time in my life where my budget was 2 dollars a day that I’d spend on the 2 tacos from Jack In The Box,…

Chasing my favorite fix with more fix. I don’t have an addictive personality, I have an excessive one. ? Jamming to Robin S, Show Me Love and playing Monday like it was set up for me to win. There are a lot of pretty people out on AB this morning. And by pretty, I mean everyone is smiling and saying good morning to each other. Kindness is contagious. ? It’s…

Naked @phatfudge. Squeezed out and frozen into a cube using an ice tray. Popping two of these and taking a power nap. Going to wake up in 20 minutes with this magic absorbed into my system ready to take flight! People ask me why I keep a version of my recipe up now that I’m selling it as a product. And I ask, why not? What if someone can’t afford…
