Bites of My Life

Last week flew by. I started the week back in OKC for work and then came home Wednesday with a busy to-do list. Busy is best when it comes to work in my opinion. I work best and harder when I have more to-do, anyone else?

-Time with this little chick is my favorite. I didn’t realize how much I would miss her when I moved. Thankful for a job that lets me visit her (and her sis) so often!
-Lunch at one of my faves, Stitch. Conveniently located next to The Jones.
-Home for my company holiday party. Yes, we have our party after the holidays. #RestaurantIndustry.
-I’m hooked on green juice right now. Sounds very basic I’m aware, but the daily green juice has been so good for clearing up and keeping my skin clear.
-I’ve also been hooked on makeup tutorials lately. I’ve never had much of a makeup routine, but I’m trying. Just about everyone and their dog raves about Tarte’s Shape Tape concealer. Considering mine just ran out, it seemed like time to try it. Only a few uses in, but the coverage is pretty impressive.
-Big ol’ bowl of shaved rainbow cauliflower for a crazy good recipe coming this week.
-First un-official cookbook club meeting with non-other than a recipe from The Defined Dish. We made her Cajun Chicken with Oven Frites and it was so good.
-Stove-top popped popcorn is one of my favorite snack (and sometimes dinner). I developed the trick to dip my popcorn in something from my roommates my senior year of college. We would make a little dish of yellow mustard and sriracha, and I’ve been dipping my popcorn ever since. I popped a few tablespoons of kernels in coconut oil on the stove, then sprinkled cinnamon over 1/2 and dipped in melty almond butter, and did nutritional yeast and salt over the other half to dip in mustard.
-Venison taco bowls a la my best guy friends here in Dallas. I love making new friends in this city, but treasure the older friendships I can rely on.
