photo credit: anitakhart I enjoyed this article about healthy veganism, and I thought I'd share it. Articles like this bring me closer and closer becoming a full-fledged vegan. I'm sure that I'll take the big step soon enough. I'm training at a new job that I just got (at a hibachi restaurant, oh boy!), and I'll probably be pretty busy for the...
I stumbled upon this site today, and I cannot wait to take advantage of some of these deals. Vitacost.com has surprisingly low prices on all kinds of natural health and beauty products. The even have food and herbal teas! The products offered actually remind me a lot of the healthy food section in my favorite Kroger. Whoa...
My 21st birthday was last week, and I was admittedly a little bummed out that I wouldn't be spending it with all of my close friends and family, but Kirby, being the swell guy that he is, made sure that it was a lovely day from start to finish. It started with birthday donuts and flowers, and it ended with birthday cuddling and Arrested Development (in between were birthday lunch at a delicious cafe and birthday sushi for dinner ). I'm a lucky girl. Damaging my hair never felt so classy. Honestly, this straightener has been kinder to my hair than...
The easiest way for me to fill you in on what's been going on with my life lately is to show you the treats that I've...
I just got back from a sufficiently relaxing vacation with Kirby and his family (hence my week-long post hiatus). The week was filled with sunshine, fruity drinks, and insane amounts of food. I enjoyed every second of it, but my body still hates me for all the junk food that I consumed. Potato chips, sausage casserole (Sometimes I'm a bad vegetarian, okay?), and lots of bread and cheese pretty much made up my entire diet for the week. I still feel sluggish, and I'm convinced that the three ulcers in my mouth are somehow connected to the poor food choices...
After reading that white tea has anti-aging properties, I felt immediately compelled to buy some. I've been drinking Celestial Seasonings Perfectly Pear White Tea over ice for the past few days, using either local honey or stevia as a sweetener. I think that it's lovely, and Danielle says it tastes like...
I enjoy an occasional glass or three of red wine. I recently stopped hating the taste of it, and I'd choose a glass of Merlot over a glass of Chardonnay any day. I'm not a wine connoisseur, by any means, but I know that I prefer the taste of red to white. I've been able to justify my consumption of wine thus far because of the antioxidants that it provides and the effect that it has on both good and bad cholesterols. Apparently, though, dark grape...
I drink a lot of juice, and I've made it a personal goal of mine to only drink juices that add something other than sugar and water to my diet. Because of this, I've obviously been doing some research. I've learned some pretty interesting facts about all sorts of juices, but apple juice is what I'd like to discuss right now. Other than buying organic, I've never been too picky when buying apple juice. Apparently, whether or not the apple juice I'm buying is organic is is only one...
photo credit: » Zitona « I just read an article about foods that may slow the aging process, and I found it to be both interesting and helpful. I tend to become so focused on health and beauty products that I forget how big a role the food we eat actually plays in our overall quality of life. I plan to buy kiwis, dark chocolate, and white tea tomorrow when I go grocery...
photo credit: laurensdekoning I steered clear of coffee for years because I thought that it was bad for me(and it probably would've been with all the cream and sugar that I used to add when I occasionally indulged in coffee). Who knows why I thought that , but something tells me that a lot of people are under the same impression. I've been reading loads of articles lately that...
