One Month and I am definitely over the hump – meaning no more craving carbs and sugar. And the funny thing is – this new lifestyle change has me searching for better ways to eat and this is what I’ve come up with for this week’s dinner plans:

You know how it is – you wake up one morning and feel the need to get impressed by some good in the world: Happy Monday everyone
So you weren’t invited to the Royal wedding in Windsor this May, but you are certainly on the invite list for a wedding of someone much more meaningful and now on a hunt for that perfect dress, like me right now – for a summer winery outdoor wedding and another formal evening one in the city mid-fall.
