The Henry serves more than brunch and coffee, but you could have fooled me! I thoroughly enjoyed my hash last weekend, comprised of seasonal ingredients that you would find at Flower Child or True Food Kitchen; it’s sister concepts! I started with an Americano topped with frothy almond milk and cinnamon. There was a gluten-free and vegan carrot muffin that called my name but I didn’t want to zonk with hypoglycemia during church so this savory hash was my second choice. And, it’s now, my favorite. Who continued to eat Brussels all week..? Me! I guess the dinner menu and cocktails are equally fabulous, but it’s more likely that this granny will be back before 9AM next weekend.

FOOD: BuckWhat
Owner Leeann sent me a sample of these nutty snack rounds inspired by her childhood snacks, and I was pleasantly impressed. Honestly, I consume very few grain-based products, but I really love that oaty whole-wheat flavor. Buckwheat fulfills that mouthfeel perfectly while providing some iron-rich whole grain nutrition. I like this crunchy and satisfying snack as a midday pre-workout boost (easy digestion with ingredients of dates, cinnamon, chia seeds and of course; buckwheat). It’s incredibly inspiring to see women pursue the creation of new health products based on a need (ex: Nutpods, MeeNutButter, Mesa Vida). Try it & subscribe to their mailing list for 20% off!

FAITH: And I shall give you rest. (Exodus 33:14)
Burning the candle at both ends and feeling exhausted? I hear you! It’s in these moments I question if I’m following God’s path, if I’m on my own, or…quite possibly I’ve just added too much of my own junk to the journey He planned for me. That seems more accurate. “Hey God, I just wanted to bring along 3 suitcases of my own desires! I know you have all-exclusive full provision here, but I wanted to be sure.”
Nah. It’s time to let go.

FAITH – Proverbs 16:2 
Let’s be clear- I was not born a coffee lover. Not even the blended mocha, 
Tip 1: Switch your non-fat milk for unsweetened almond milk. 
Our San Diego anniversary trip was a short 72 hour trip. I packed the essentials; flip flops, sunglasses, NOT sunscreen (whoops!), bikini, sundress, hiking shoes and snacks. I’m well aware that carbohydrates are plentiful at hotels, but they’re usually lacking in healthy fats and proteins. I packed veggies for plane snacking, but that celery is only good for the first 24 hours…
Let’s be clear- I was not born a jerky lover. Or even the banana with almond butter type. You could find, in my hyperglycemic moment, noshing on a granola bar everyday at around 3PM. But, I like to eat what I preach and mimic successful recommendations I give my patients. During my last few Whole30s, I’ve even tried to embrace change and open my close-minded tastebuds to new things. Now, I hide meat sticks from my husband. Please don’t tell.
