Fall is in the air, trees are starting to change, yet it is 90° where we live in South Carolina. I call up my sisters in Detroit and they are already in cozy, sweater mode. Despite the heat I am lighting my pumpkin candles, just hung my favorite fall wreath on our front door and thinking about working warm soups into our meal rotation including this Paleo chicken zoodle soup.

Light Mexican Chicken Bake (Perfect For Football Season)
I wrote this three years ago (39 weeks pregnant with Brody!), but it is still one of our game-day healthy favorites. This meal is quick, easy and perfect for a last minute family dinner when you have other things consuming your time. I wanted to share this recipe with you because it’s great for a weeknight or college football Saturdays. It has only 300 calories per serving, but tastes much more sinful. You can even assemble it ahead of time,…
Star Spangled White Sangria for 4th of July
Star Spangled White Sangria for 4th of July – Nothing gets people in the mood to celebrate like sangria. Sweet, refreshing and alcohol-masking, it is a delishly deceiving party in a pitcher.

It’s more substantial than regular guacamole because of the crab meat so you could even have it as a meal. It offers the perfect sweet kick…

Host A Galentine’s Dinner Party
For years now I’ve wanted to host a Galentine’s dinner. We would wear red or pink, leave the men and littles at home for a couple of hours and converse over love-themed, botanical cocktails. This year I decided to go for it, partly because I found this restaurant in Old Fort Mill, Southern Sugar, whose ambiance has such feminine charm it made thee perfect spot for a Galentine’s gathering to celebrate friendships. Last Friday night 18 of us got together…
