Introducing Sick Delicious

I have two people whom I call regularly on to mitigate kitchen disasters, often as they are occurring. These people are Kate and Rachel Hull (have to distinguish her from my other best friend from high school, Rachel Phillips...yep, a pair of Rachels and they're awesome). This does mean I am often borderline hyperventilating and covered in flour at the time of the call, like the time Rachel helped me get the consistency for my gnocchi dough right by walking me through it, long-distance. Despite the fact that she could only hear my best-guess description of what was going on, the husband and I ate gnocchi that night. And now, this culinary goddess (well, she's a goddess of all things to me!) has her own blog:

Sick Delicious


She's an amazing cook. I love eating at her house. In fact, here are the beautiful desserts she made me for my bachelorette party. Yep, she REALLY loves me.


If you want to seriously improve your life by eating the best food ever, I suggest you get on over to Sick Delicious.

Dr. Miriam Nelson talks about women's fitness in USAToday

I'm a big (read: HUGE) fan of Mim Nelson and this article from USAToday discusses the importance of physical activity and counting calories (have to do both to lose weight, and both are important in weight gain prevention).
