My obsession with Cara cara oranges (available now!) + fennel and those fresh little fronds is hardly quantifiable, 💯 doesn’t ever cover it. Who wants to learn how to supreme an orange? #cookbycolor

After 11 years living together in 4 cities, 2 states, 9 houses + a million highs and lows, plenty of even keeled happiness, 4 years of marriage, 2 dogs, 1 cat, and 1 puppy human...

When I used to feel overwhelmed by life my instincts would lead me to smoke cigs, eat a baguette, a hunk of cheese, wine, and all the sweets. I felt ‘better’ temporarily, but it actually made things worse by further stressing my body on top of my mind. Now, cooking is my therapy, and food is my medicine. . Now I keep things simple, healthy, quick and colorful in the kitchen. I use what I have, no recipe needed. I shut off my mind, ease around the kitchen and get this bod the nutrients it needs- without depriving myself of exciting flavors and meals. . . Used up the final zucchini, 1/2 a carrot, sugar snap peas, cherry tomatoes, shallot, spinach and a couple of slices of leftover flank steak in a quick sauté. Sprinkled it all with 21 seasoning salute from Trader Joe's and finished with sesame seeds + cilantro + side of av. . #cookbycolor
Its been 3 weeks, and nothing about this journey is lost on me. I’m absorbing everything, and it all works to further illuminate my colorful life. Some things that I recognize in this moment are: . The exhausting nights that blend into long days- and how rewarding it is. . My intensely sensitive and overflowing heart and heavy emotions that I can’t control. . My strong protective instincts and transition to finding my mom voice. . The crazy, crazy night sweats. Whoah. The human body is amazing. . How he holds my hand so tightly while I breastfeed him. . His incredibly sweet, soft, perfect little features, fingers and toes. . Omg, his little baby arms stretching over his head! . The astounding amount of love I radiate every time I see Nick and Talus together. . My still sore/healing body that worked so hard and overcame so much. . My dirty feet after harvesting from the garden with my him snuggled warmly against my chest. . This is such a magical, powerful, overwhelming adventure. ❤️ . . . #mycolorfullife #cookbycolor #livecolorfully #lifeincolor #gratitudejournal #gratitudeattitude #septemberwhole30 #homegarden #newmomlife #candidmotherhood #holdyourmoments #raisingmytribe #newbaby #motherhood #motherhoodblog #mytribe #justdarling #thehappynow #amotherslove #raisethemright #firstborn #ourfamily #realfood #foodismedicine #reallifemoments #makeitblissful #theeverydayproject
