Fresh Summer Hair Looks
Thanks to Walgreens for underwriting this post. I was paid as a member of the Clever Girls Collective, but the content is all mine. Visit http://www.discoverbeautywithin.com/ The lingering residue of my past as a beauty editor is that I’m constantly experimenting with beauty looks, BUT I can’t ignore my roots as a ponytailed, low-maintenance jock…
Austin: Chicken.
I have THING with chicken. Not a thing like something romantic and fling-y, a thing like I’m afraid to touch raw chicken and I’ve learned to buy single-serve Boulder Naturals packets that I can cut open and dump into a pan without touching even though it’s terribly un-eco-friendly but it’s just about the only way…
Day 16 HCG Diet + No Sugar Cravings?
Two weeks down, just one more week of 500 calorie, no-fat eating left! … it gives me a new appreciation for fat. Butter and coconut milk in particular, for my healthy cooking. Butter for sauteeing, coconut milk for curries, soups, and more. I also can’t wait to eat spaghetti squash again, and not to have…

Aspen: Well hello Matsuhisa, nice to meet you
The holy grail of Aspen food is UNarguably Matsuhisa. As in celeb-heavyweight Nobu’s little pet sister restaurant, the one Chef Nobu only opened for fun. You wait for someone’s rich parents or tourists to invite you to dinner there, and then you feel awkward the entire time because it’s so expensive and extravagant that you…
Austin: Snap Kitchen Update
Snap Kitchen. Everything about it is so right. The store – you walk in to an airy, all-windowed place with bright green floors, bamboo counters and tables, white plastic chairs, and bright orange accoutrements. There are no walls, save some muddled clear walls defining a main office and registered dietician’s office. That’s right–there’s a full…
Giveaway Alert: Arthouse 5×7 Art Splurge + Social
Hipsters and art patrons alike are coming together for the 11th Annual 5×7 Art Splurge, and the art series is adding a cheaper Social event too. With nightlife kingpin James Moody charing the event, the Arthouse event pulled off quite the coup, because while cool, the art-patron organization just doesn’t have quite the same reputation…
