7 Meal Prep Tips to Help You Stay Sane This Week
7 Meal Prep Tips to Help You Stay Sane This Week
"Meal prepping" is what all the fitness people on the socials do. They plan out recipes for the week and write out elaborate lists of ingredients. Then they go to the supermarket while their ingredients list is still fresh on their mind --and they go early-- before all the kale is picked over-- and they purchase all of their already planned menu ingredients with a smile and some zeal.
"Healthy" Chocolate Cake? Yes, Please.
"Healthy" Chocolate Cake? Yes, Please.
This is a zero-fuss kind of cake. It's also not made with any dairy, eggs or white sugar (the frosting has some powdered sugar but oh, well). Everything you see here: extra ultra moist dark chocolate cake and extra dark, better than buttercream frosting--is made with avocados.

What is 40 Days and 40 Nights (So I Can Be Great?)
What is 40 Days and 40 Nights (So I Can Be Great?)
8 years ago around this time, I created a fast. I had done 21 day fasts like Dr. Alejandro Junger's CLEAN program for several years first. I liked Dr. Junger's program.

I couldn't find anything. So I made something up. And I called it what I wanted to experience through doing it-- 40 Days and 40 Nights (So I Can Be Great). I know, not subtle. :) Looking back, I probably would have challenged myself to find a different--maybe shorter- name...but it is what it is now. If you have any ideas, I'm open.

An Apple, a Sweet Potato, A Carrot and Some Cashews Enter a Bar:
An apple, a sweet potato, a carrot and some cashews enter a bar. Just kidding. They go to a mixer. That was my husband’s joke. Irl, an apple, a sweet a carrot, handful of cashews and a healthy swig of homemade hemp milk get together in a blender to become the flipping most delicious, creamy, flavorful, refreshing unfussy soup that I didn’t know I needed.

Zach's Top Stories of 2013
2014 will be here in just a few days. It's a perfect time to look back at 2013. As a writer, it's always fun to look back at previous stories and see which ones were the most successful. So, that's what I did. I compiled a list of the top stories I wrote in 2013. The list is based on the page views and Facebook "likes" the stories received. Enjoy!
