I did well maintaining my weight during most of my hamstring injury. But the past two weeks, I got a little bit of that fuckititis—you know, where you’re like, I want that cookie fuckit. Of course I drink wine every night after work, work is HARD (not really), fuckit. I’m in Aspen with my fave people, of course I…

Pumpkin Spice Latte
No need for the Starbucks gut-buster we all know and love. You can make your own pumpkin spice latte, healthier, and it is awesome. For my earlier version of a make-at-home PSL, using protein powder, click here. Make the Pumpkin Spice Latte: 2 tablespoons coconut milk (full fat) 1-2 tablespoon pumpkin puree (I use canned,…
Do Celebs Drink Beer in LA? The Elbow Room Encino
Because there’s a fantastic new gastropub-style restaurant opening in Encino, on Ventura Blvd in (basically) LA. The Elbow Room (elbowroomencinco.com) features a killer craft beer selection, absolutely scrumptious grass-fed beef burgers, ribs, and meatballs, and more—including waffle sammies. Basically, celebs are about to start faux celebs like me already frequent this not-even-open-yet culinary destination. [obvious disclaimer]…
Happy Birthday Moonshine
For a three-year period of my life, most of my big moments were punctuated by a trip to Moonshine for brunch. From the legendary JoSco (click here for The Tale of John Scott) to the time we skyped people in, from my goodbye brunch to a reunion date, Moonshine’s all-you-can-eat decadence has hosted more than…
#FuelABetterYou Like a Celeb [Sponsored]
This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of Nutrisystem, Inc.. All opinions are 100% mine. Sabrina the Teenage Witch uses Nutrisystem to lose weight … so why couldn’t you? Melissa Joan Hart, Dan Marino … well, he’s kinda good at football and played himself in There’s Something About Mary so definitely a celeb who lost weight…
Death Row Meal
My friend Cali is fond of asking, “What would your last meal on earth be?” I’m usually stumped, and when she answers her own question with something akin to my grandma’s homemade lasagna, I struggle even more—does my own grandma’s Heavenly Hash/Mississippi Mud cake count? But given time to think about it, I realized that my Death…
Omega-3 Mania: New Fish Oil from SFH + Discount
You know how there are those things you know you should be doing but you don’t always do? Floss, vacuum more frequently, call a friend back … ok, maybe that’s just me. I’m also exceptionally terrible at taking vitamins, so much so that when I put them out on my counter as a reminder they still…
Aspen’s The Little Nell’s Element 47
Aspen’s five-star hotel The Little Nell’s newly-updated Element 47 restaurant officially opened last night, but last weekend I was lucky enough to get to sample the menu before it opened (in a town as small as Aspen, however, I’m pretty sure most of the locals were as lucky too). The new decor is a massive…
PaleoTrim Supp + Discount Code
I heard about a new Paleo supp called PaleoTrim and had to try it. As many of you Paleos know, diehards don’t consider supplements paleo, but nobody every accused me of being a diehard (see: booze, cheese, and paleo-ish chocolate chip cookies) so I’m excited to talk about PaleoTrim. It’s kind of like an energizing multivitamin. PaleoTrim…
Clark’s v Clark’s
I live above a Clark’s grocery store in Aspen, Colorado. On a recent 12-hour stint in Austin, Texas, I visited a new restaurant called Clark’s. Clark’s Oyster Bar took over the Portabla spot on far West 6th and has been a smashing success since day one. The nabe needed a new hangout, and the uber-nautical,…
