Sometimes making decisions is tough. When I can't decide what to order while eating out, I almost always go with soup, salad, or both. Here are a few of the soups and salads I've been eating lately. Do you have any preferred restaurant standbys? Here are four reasons why we should all be eating salad on a regular basis. Have a great weekend!

You guys might not know this about me, but until last night I had never tried brussels sprouts. I'm not an especially picky eater; I might even call myself an adventurous eater...so I'm not sure what took me so long. I knew I had to take the plunge when I saw a recipe on Pink Basil for roasted brussels sprout salad, and I knew I must do so immediately when I realized we had all the necessary ingredients aside from brussels sprouts....

My friend Hannah visited recently, and she left a big, beautiful pumpkin behind when she returned home. Since then, I've been brainstorming ways to put it to good use.

Below are a few pumpkin dog treat recipes I've found: Peanut Butter and Pumpkin Dog Treats Halloween Pumpkin Dog Treats Pumpkin Dog Cookies Homemade...
Kirby, Danielle, and I recently rediscovered the most delicious Greek restaurant in Lake Charles called Toga Grill, and I could probably eat it every day for the next ten years. Falafel, hummus, baba ganoush, tabouli, and moussaka have all found a very special place in my heart. Move over, Mexican. You have some serious...
I'm sure I've shared my obsession with Luna Bars with you guys before, but their latest flavor totally takes the cake. If you haven't tried one, then think of Samoas. It tastes like that, only ten times better. I know that sounds like an impossibility, but I'm as serious as can be. I could eat a mountain of them. A mountain! And since they're full of calcium, folic acid, protein, fiber, and vitamins A, C, and E, I can eat one on Tuesdays and Thursdays in between...
I find the combination of tomato soup and grilled cheese to be extremely comforting, and I know I'm not the only one. One night this past week, I made tomato soup while Kirby made grilled cheeses (rBST free, y'all). I'd be lying if I said it didn't make me a little homesick, but it was also pretty delicious... so that helped.
