change journal: Lean2015

I'm watching the sunset on this beautiful first night of the year and I'm feeling so inspired. January has always been one of my favorite months, because it seems that everyone is striving to do better, do more, build a plan, build a road map for the rest of the year. I'm caught up in this motivational space and making major plans for the year. The biggest plan, the main goal this year, is for my physical body.  This body that I'm sitting in as I write this has come down a long hard road in 27 years. We've seen it all-- underweight, overweight,  eating disorder, c-section, sex, drugs, and rock&roll. But even though there are times where I feel more like 72 than 27, I'm not. Plain and simple. And I'm tired of wasting my damned good looks in a body which needs to be treated better.which needs to look better.  Which needs to feel better. So I'm starting change journal. And it starts today. Every week, I'll report back on the lifestyle change I'm committing to, the challenges,  the rewards, the progress. I know I can Change and I know this is going to be my year.

Join me.

Our Obsessions this Week: November 17, 2014

Fall is in FULL SWING and M&M is feeling it! 

Check out our Top Obsessions this Week:

ROASTED PARSNIPS & CARROTS:

Not only is this a universal crowd-pleaser, the prep is quick and can easily happen while kiddos are occupied with play-doh. This dish accompanies so many mains and can even work for brunch. Serve individually for guests with an over easy egg and its paleo and fabulous too. So freakin good.

BOOTIE BOOTIE BOOTIE...

Rockin Everywhere

Seriously-- if you don't have fall booties lets start over. quick. 

We are in love with these sassy business-in-the-fronts from mod cloth. Sooooo appropriate for work and play, and comfortable enough to keep on all day. This seasonal shoe is a classic and can definitely be counted on to make a comeback year after year.

And could you just melt for these pineapple booties? I die.

                                                                     

RUSTIC BARN WEDDINGS: 

They aren't over until I say they're over.

I mean, who doesn't love a good barn wedding/pickup truck/pumpkin everything/hipster chic ceremony? Who? You're lying to yourself. We love.

HYDRANGEAS: Victorian Florals

An all-time favorite flower and so perfect for any occasion, nothing quite says rustic and farm fresh like some autumn toned hydrangeas in a vintage bucket or pitcher. Love.

BOOMF-- You will freak out from the cuteness.

Yet another fab contribution from the Middleton clan, Boomf is a fabulous company that will take your Instagram pics and screen print them onto edible fabulousness- yes, marshmallow-ey pics that will turn anyone's seasonal frown upside down. Such a fun gift idea or a "just because I wanted to see your face on food" thing.

'Nuff said.
