Doing my part to protect my health and my planet
Last week, I felt I had an inner conflict for which workout to post for 2/20. Steve Irwin, whose birthday was February 22nd, or a pet-themed workout. Last Thursday was actually Love Your Pet Day, and I thought it could be a lot of fun to do a workout centered around your pet.
The past few weeks we’ve had some fun with Joss Whedon and celebrating his contribution to the world of sci-fi, girl power, and geeky/nerdy fandoms. Three weeks, and three Tabatas. You’ll be pleased to know this week, I’m not doing a Tabata. No, no, a high intensity interval training workout with only four movements can’t…
Say this five times fast- Sweet Sunset Salad. This magical creation is vegan, paleo-friendly, and local-friendly (even for the winter). The main attraction for this “salad” are the beets and sweet potatoes.

A couple weeks ago while working on my YouTube series “Healthy You, Healthy Earth”, I started discussing a topic which I realize I haven’t covered too much before.

Saturday is the birthday of a great personality and animal lover who inspired a generation of zookeepers and conservationists. Steve Irwin would be 58 years old. We lost him way too soon, but I feel somewhat fortunate that his legacy lives on in his children and the Australia Zoo.
In the last Tabata in the Joss Whedon tribute series, I want to celebrate my own personal favorite Joss Whedon creation. Yes, yes, I adore Buffy for being a lead kick-ass female character in a time female kick-ass characters were few and far between. And the story of a smuggler ship crew in a Sci-Fi…
Back in 2014, my husband had befriended a gym buddy who lived down the street. We would take turns cooking dinner, mostly using his perfect grill to create the most divine meals on earth.
Recently I read two books in a row about the environmental impact of our food, specifically the carbon footprint of the food we eat.
Tomorrow is Valentine’s Day, so it’s the perfect time to celebrate our loved ones and our love for ourselves in a special partner workout.
Last week, I shared the first of three Joss Whedon universe workouts, inspired by Buffy: The Vampire Slayer. This week I’m dredging up another old Whedon television show that sadly didn’t last nearly as long as fans would have liked.
