Strawberry Chia Pudding + Overcoming A Bad Relationship
My first adult relationship was the summer before I started college with a boy we’ll call O. He was bad. I mean, bad. Picture an extra from the movie KIDS or a not-so-reformed Holder from The Killing. But he was hot. Really hot. Hilarious. A great kisser. And an incredible artist. For the next three and half years, we had […]
Coconut Quinoa and Beans + Staying In Vacation Mode At Home
I just got back from vacation and it was one of my most favorite adventures ever! But I pretty much say that every time I go on a a trip. It has a lot to do with the setting, but it has even more to do with being in vacation mode. Something changes inside of […]

I’m not sure if I can even explain to you how excited I am about filmmaker Michal Siewierski’s new documentary, Food Choices. I’m a food movie addict.

For Reals Meals (Dude Edition) Hosted By Max Wastler
Do you remember that old cartoon Chester & Spike? The one with the little dog (Chester) that kept pestering the big dog (Spike) with questions – “you wanna play ball, Spike, huh? huh? huh? Spike?”. He’d jump over him, around him, and just wouldn’t let up. He meant well but was sorta annoying. Leading up […]
What To Do When People Aren’t Down With Your Diet + Mediterranean Pie with Baba Ganoush & Roasted Potatoes
The other night I came home after an exhausting day, and sitting in the kitchen under the glow of the oven light was this magical pie. My husband surprised me with this new recipe he created, and I swear I almost started crying. I knew coming home that my fridge was pretty bare, and I […]
Why It’s Ok Not To “Meditate” & A Veggie Caesar Salad
I’ve got a lot on my brain right now. I’m adopting a baby for one (!!) and have some major stuff about to launch with OPP (excited for you to see). Mostly awesome things, but lots of ideas constant swirling and sometimes it can get the best of me. And if I have to hear […]
Babes In Plantland: Tedi Sarah

They instagrammed me delivering the treats and Tedi Sarah, a customer and follower of DRD, saw the photo. She clicked on me to see my deal and […]
