Raspberry Dark Chocolate Empanadas
Not too long ago I heard of the idea that being busy is nothing to brag about because it often times can mean that we aren’t taking the time to savor the moment, live in the present or smell those roses. I’m as guilty as the next for playing the “I’m SO busy” card, and while I have gotten slightly better over the years…I’ve got a long way to go.

Deep Thoughts: NEPAL
I had delicious things planned for today’s post, but given the recent earthquake in Nepal, I wanted to share some deep thoughts instead. I wasn’t going to, but I can’t stop thinking about it, and I thought maybe writing about it would help. Often times we…
