The bevvie lady is coming in hot again. Summer style, today. A few weeks ago, I was chatting with one my friends about how neither one of us will ever do a juice cleanse again, in our lives. We died laughing. Nooooope. It’s the worst. It’s so intense and extreme. And you don’t really feel […]

Missed Wednesday morning’s fun cooking segment on King 5 TV’s New Day Northwest? Catch up here with one of my all time favorite recipes this summer. Because #saladingisaverb this season. Watch the New Day Northwest Show Recap Here! And because I’m anti WIMPY salads, a little quick shortcut to easy, amazing ones, no matter what […]

Oh hi. Have we met? My name is Sarah and before you get your cute self down the page, there are TWO THINGS you should know: 1. I am never willing to sacrifice good food for fast food, because I know (and so fiercely believe) that you can have both.  2. I am self-admittedly a total loophole […]

The green smoothie has been summer-ized. Cuz it’s time for some ice ice baby. Shusheeeeeees for all. But, you know. Upgraded this time. Because why should kids have all the summer fun? The Coconut-Chocolate Green Slushie Makes 1 delicious serving 2-4 cups organic spinach 1/4 to 1/2 frozen banana 2 tablespoons coconut butter/coconut manna (I […]

It’s back! Another mini episode of what I’m calling #SIMPLYREALSHOPS, where I take you inside my head AND grocery bag, showing you my most recent favorite healthy finds, and weekly staples that help me live this beautiful healthy life, made simple. This week, it’s a mini Trader Joe’s addition. It’s no secret I love this store, […]

I’ve been quiet this week. Which I should have known would have happened.  It happens to me every year, around this time. A break.  A rest. A rejuvenate.  And I don’t just mean a trip or traveling. Because I adore those. And do it often. Vacations too. I mean, a  b-r-e-a-k. The difference? That I’m not still […]

I have to admit. When I cook a little homemade dinner, even after a crazy day, I feel like I’m totally just winning at life. Beyonce-in-a-apron-style, even if I’m still in my sweaty lululemons with a power bun and eyebrows that so badly need waxing. To me, making a healthy dinner is like this soothing little ritual […]

Earlier this week on instagram, I took you guys behind-the-scenes on a typical grocery store haul: on what I buy, why I buy it, and what I usually do with it, to make easy healthy meals without spending more than 15-20 minutes cooking each night. Scratch that. Honestly? Most nights are more like 10 minutes. Because although […]

Yes, those are my athletic and imperfect thighs. 10 years ago, verdict would still be out if I’d still be in my coverup. Let alone posting any pictures. Let me explain.  So, last month’s #simplyreallife theme & blog posts were on building freedom in your life, and chasing your dreams. This month– its about freedom […]

This much I know is true: food is magical. Especially thoughtful and intentional food- the kind that deeply settles something in us, and especially so when you share it with people you love, and wanna squish hug as hard as you can. It’s something it took me most of my life to really know it’s […]

I have to admit. When I cook a little homemade dinner, even after a crazy day, I feel like I’m winning at life. It’s like this soothing little routine that says- you got this mamma. It’s like wrapping yourself (and anyone lucky enough to be around you) up in this magical cozy goodness that promises […]

I don’t know about you, but I have a funny memory. Especially so this time of year, when it seems to come so easily to others.  I’m pretty good at either remembering and focusing only on the good in smaller increments (and finding something daily, as you guys know in my #dailyjoys tags on instagram). But, I’m not […]
