Pumpkin Patching in Nebraska

by

I got to go back to Nebraska a couple of weeks ago like I talked about in my Thin Mint Cookie Pie post! I feel like we go back a lot..maybe a lot more than most people who live away from home do. I think both Dave and I miss our family a whole lot and can’t wait to move back. I wanted to share a little recap to a. show you all my yummy eats, b. show you some Valas Pumpkin Patch (and cute nephew) pictures and lastly c. brag about my run.

Foodie Finds in Des Moines

by

A small group of bloggers decided that since the Healthy Living Summit got cancelled, we should still get together. It’s weird to think about if you don’t have internet friends (or blends..blog + friend = blend), but these gals are some of my closest friends. We met due to common interests and our personalities seem to meld really well. Plus we all love food and fitness. Thus the zillion food/drink stops AND a little dose of active fun.

Turkey Enchiladas with Fire Roasted Tomatoes

by

Turkey Enchiladas with Fire Roasted Tomatoes. I mean the flavor was rich with the tomatoes and a little spicy with the enchilada sauce, but not so spicy that you feel like a fire-breathing dragon. The texture was exactly as I imagine the perfect enchilada—soft enough to cut with a fork, but not soggy. This is the perfect simple, hot and tasty meal for these on coming chilly fall days. Plus if it’s just two of you, you might be able to extend this into another couple of meals. Might being the key word. They are pretty fantastic.
