Holiday Coffee Craze
December 1, 2011 If you’re a coffee lover like I am, then you must love the holiday season for all the delicious flavors that come along with it, particularly at popular chains Starbucks and Dunkin’ Donuts. The only thing that gets me down about some of these drinks is the amount of calories and sugar […]
The Best Meal of the Year: Thanksgiving!
November 26, 2011 I have been itching to write this post since I started my food writing frenzy! Thanksgiving is by far my favorite day of the year: glutton without guilt! I love everything about Thanksgiving dinner, from the preparation to the after-dinner food coma. This year was both special and sad for me. Special […]

Sunday Funday in the Kitchen
November 22, 2011 Everyone enjoys a good Sunday Funday. What better way to wind down the weekend than by hanging out with friends and enjoying yourself before you have to jump back into the work week?

Everything Under 475 Calories?!
November 19, 2011 The above sentence is not something you typically hear when talking about a restaurant, but at Seasons 52 that is their mantra. Everything listed on their menu is under 475 calories, with no sacrifice in taste at all. My aunt, cousin and I decided to have a girls night and go out to dinner. […]
More Adventures in the Kitchen!
November 17, 2011 Well, the trend continues… I am still on my cooking kick and tried three new recipes this week. First up, in honor of the Eagles game last Sunday, I decided to go GREEN and make Edamame Ravioli using Won Ton paper. It was the easiest thing I’ve ever done! In case you […]
A “Skinny” Treat
November 8, 2011 I made these low-fat, low-calorie Cinnamon Oatmeal Banana cookies, adapted from a recipe on the blog, Skinnytaste. The original recipe is a Oatmeal Banana Nut cookie, using chopped walnuts, but I opted to forgo on the nuts for an even lower fat and lower calorie version of the cookie. I also used rolled […]
Ziree Thai, Delray Beach
November 12, 2011 Yet again, here is another recommendation for a delicious dinner the next time you’re itching for a night out. Keeping with the Asian theme, this week was Thai.
