non-negotiable.

I don’t do paper plates; its a non-negotiable. So let’s get that out of the way. And I recommend you do the same. My thinking is that Cooking leads to eating. Eating leads to nutrition. Nutrition leads to health. Health leads to Longevity. And longevity is what we are aiming for. Somehow a paper plate doesn’t [...]

kitchn stuff.

This post is for people who don’t mind being in a kitchen. GT is very much one of those people. And yes! I have gurlfriends who don’t eat breakfast till 3pm and who’d rather eat Brownies and Icecream for dinner. They just refuse to go there. And I love them to death for accepting the fact [...]

connections.

It’s a responsibility, a pricey chore and the temptation to do otherwise is everywhere. Get Togetha is talking about healthy eating. And its no walk in the park. Its the difference between inhaling an extra cheese pizza and grazing over an arugula salad. The difference is a nap. And it can’t be right to nap [...]

defense.

 
Living quality takes work. Cause it’s so damn easy to do what everyone else does. Bitch rant, complain, talk hardcore junk, and blame blame blame, Just copy and paste and you’re on a well traveled road with a bajillion folks. Been there. Done that. Overdone. Wacksauce.

it amazes me.

Commentary on TV.
Depending upon how many hours you invest; the spectator sport of watching television is the black vortex of quality living. I call it the plug in drug. And I decided over ten years ago that I wouldn’t make it the center piece of my life; cause I couldn’t bear the thought of passively [...]
