It's Girl Scout Cookie time! This might be fun fact you don't know about me: when I was a little girl in elementary school in NJ, I was a brownie! :) (That's the name for the group before you become a Girl Scout). I used to go door to door selling the cookies each year. Meanwhile, all my friends' parents would just take order forms into their huge offices and sell boxes for their kids. Now I … [Read more...]
DIY All Purpose Cleaning Spray
I've had a few friends on Facebook share an article recently (Cleaning products as bad for lungs as smoking 20 cigarettes a day) about a new study linking long-term exposure to household cleaning products with reduced lung function. This is a new study done over the course of years, but as a holistic health & wellness coach, I've been well aware of these harmful and negative effects! I also … [Read more...]
Crispy Cauliflower “Wings” (Vegan & Gluten Free)
 I'll be honest I'm not into football too much these days. With two small kids, having 3 hours to sit and watch a game sounds like a "fantasy"! I grew up being a big Giants fan (living in NJ, I called them the NEW JERSEY Giants since they've played there for 40+ years, after all! Why do they still call them the NY Giants?). Then I married someone from Boston, sat behind Bob Kraft in temple … [Read more...]
The #1 Best Thing You can do TODAY for Your Health!
Season's Greetings! Maybe you have noticed that you haven't heard from me in a while... I wish I could say it was because I was celebrating the holidays, on vacation or some other fun activity but it's not. My uncle, whom I loved dearly, passed away. We (my husband, daughters and I) went back to the cold, snowy, icy Northeast for the funeral & shiva at my aunt's house in Rhode … [Read more...]
Baked Apple Cider Donuts (Vegan & Gluten Free)
If you follow me on IG, you know it's no secret I like my vegan donuts (particularly from my favorite spot in LA!) BUT it's a good idea to follow my own advice and if I want a treat, make it myself! I've had the donut pans for a while. I was excited when they arrived in the mail and I unwrapped them, cleaned them and put them away but never had the chance to make donuts... until now. Just in … [Read more...]
Vegan Egg Nog
Do you love the flavors of the holiday season, but not the way you feel after indulging in heavy sugary treats loaded with dairy? If you’re guilty (like me! GASP!) of purchasing eggnog in a carton, you might be aware that they are still highly processed and loaded with sugar.(Yes, EVEN IF it’s the soymilk, almond milk or coconut milk kind.) But you’re in luck! I created my own version that is … [Read more...]
Holistic Remedies for Smoke Inhalation
Right now there are fires raging in Southern California (about 5 now, I think). Yesterday I had to pick my daughter up early from preschool since the air was so bad and that was from the fires in Ojai/Ventura County, a good 60 miles away. Today, things changed and another fire broke out about 15 miles from home by the Skirball Center/Getty Museum. Thank you to all who have reached out. We are safe … [Read more...]
