There are some people in this world, namely my husband and mother-in-law, who don't really care about dessert. They don't like cake, are impartial to ice cream, and only eat cookies on occasion. I think they're crazy and I'm definitely not one of those people.

Let’s talk barbecues. Memorial Day is right around the corner and with it comes a summer filled with outdoor eating. Barbecues, picnics, and pitch-ins can be a scary foodscape to navigate when you’re trying to eat healthy. My suggestion is to take your diet into your own hands! Bring your own healthified dish for everyone to enjoy. Not only will it ensure you have something to nosh on, but it may convince a few fellow party-goers that healthy eating isn’t such a bad way of life.

Summer is on its way, and it’s time for cookouts, parties, music festivals, and baseball! And although you guys tend to keep busy with softball leauges, outdoor treks, and general shenanigans, your love handles can still find a way to affix themselves to your newly sun-kissed statures.

What’s a fella to do? The good news is that you don’t have to eat salad every day. Your favorite foods can be prepared in a way that makes them delicious AND nom-worthy. So, good sirs, put down your Sam Adams and read on.

Did you know that holding your body in a prone position just a few inches off the floor is both challenging and great for your physique? That’s right, planks are all the rage, replacing crunches as the go-to core exercise. Everyone's planking these days—elite athletes, my mom and dad, and even 71-year-olds breaking world records. We can thank our yoga and Pilates instructors for this one!

Memorial Day is one of my favorite holidays, not only because America remembers the heroes who have served our country, but because it's a tradition that I spend it with my family. The weekend also kicks summer into high gear, and that calls for refreshing, fruity drinks! My fam gets together to make good food, drink, and have a good time!

As we go through life, we're constantly categorizing (whether consciously or subconsciously) everything that crosses our path. He is this. She is that. These are different. That's the same. Yet, where does this lead us? No day is ever the same. And it’s this sense of variety that most of us thrive on and live for. So, why is that when it comes to analyzing our eating habits, we feel the need to categorize them as either “good” or “bad”? Let's dig into this a bit further.

Every Sunday night, I plop down on the couch for an hour straight to watch my favorite show, Game of Thrones. It's impossible to resist my love for dragons, action-packed battles, and the crazy power trips! But instead of sitting for an hour, I created a workout game that I do while the show is playing. It allows me to get in a good workout while watching.

It's hard to believe that strawberry season is right around the corner. We’re all quite familiar with these sweet, tangy, and bright red berries. But did you know that on top of being naturally delicious, they’re also a rockstar superfood?
