Weeping in 5D
Hey friends! So I’ve got a question for ya. Pretty exciting news around here. Last week, I was approached about starting a podcast! As you know, this blog has been named the Top 3 Eating Disorder Recovery Blogs of 2017/2018. And so I’ve been approached to do a podcast about all things recovery. Some of […]

Curried Sweet Potato & Carrot Latkes
Happy Wednesday! I’m back in NYC. It was an amazing weekend back home in Ohio. (Minus the Cheesecake Factory!) We had a surprise birthday party for my dad, a birthday dinner for my sisters in law, and I even hung out with an eligible bachelor. 🙂 Anywho. I’m just sitting here, chillin’ in my Yoga Toes, […]

The Other S-Word
I’ve gotta tell ya…sometimes I just cannot believe how socially dense we can be in 2018. I mean, for as politically correct and inclusive our carefully chosen words are…y-i-k-e-s. Let me back up. Over the weekend, I took my dad out for his birthday. We went shopping, saw a movie, and went to lunch at […]

Dignity
Surprise! I’m back in Ohio. I just managed to sneak out during this massive blizzard in NYC, because I had an important audition back home. You know what I did last night? Watched Notting Hill. Yes yes, the classic 90’s chick flick with Hugh Grant and Julia Roberts. I had never seen it. And it […]

Grain Free Caramelized Onion & Gruyere Sandwich!
This… is Operation Blizzard Food, people. In case you haven’t heard, NYC is expecting 11-15 inches of snow today. CRAZY, right? Nothing like a blanket of snow to usher in the first day of spring! But the snow is really coming down outside, and I am cozy and warm, snuggled under a blanket with the candles […]

#RealTalk : Private Spirituality
We’re in the home stretch of Lent. Easter is less than two weeks away. And if you’re anything like me, then maybe you’ve slipped up a time or two – or twenty – on what you’ve “given up” for Lent. So these last two weeks are the final push – the home stretch where you […]

FabFitFun Unboxing VIDEO!
Hello my dear friends! A little somethin’ exciting for y’all tonight. I MADE A VIDEO! I’ve been sitting on pins and needles in anticipation for my FabFitFun box to arrive, and it finally did, and I captured every fabulous – and often embarrassing/silly/random/oh-Caralyn-just-sit-down – moment on camera for you. So pop some popcorn, pour a […]

Peach-Nana Swirl (N)Ice Cream
Sometimes I just have to shake my head and laugh at how we are truly living in the future. I cannot believe that here it is, middle of March, and I was able to whip up this delectable figment of my culinary imagination. Do you ever wake up, and are just craving something oddly particular to […]

International Women’s Day…
Well, last week was apparently International Women’s Day. I hope you can hear the dripping sarcasm in that last sentence. Does anyone else throw up a little bit in their mouth when, come March 8, social media turns into an estrogen fest of caustic female pride? I mean, double standard much? Honestly, I walk around […]

The Bachelor Finale & The Disappearing Line of Decency
Just when you think you’ve seen it all, leave it to The Bachelor to pull an Emeril Lagasse and “Bam! Kick it up a knotch!” In case you haven’t heard, The Bachelor season finale was on Monday and Tuesday of this past week. And…wow. Just…W O W. It was a dumpster fire of everything wrong […]
