Sweet Summer Slaw

IMG_1409

How is May already halfway over?

Memorial Day is coming up which means I’ve got a countdown calendar on my phone telling me how many days I get to live in white pants again. Not that I’m a fashion rule follower by any means, but officially wearing white bottoms means that summer is here and a) I’m getting ready to be on a boat for at least 13 hours that day while b) eating all the picnic foods. (Keeping my fingers crossed I don’t spill anything on my white pants. Seriously, it would be miracle if I actually didn’t.)

Nutrition Happens, 2.0

Welcome to the new Nutrition Happens – what do you think?

I know it’s been a long time coming, but you can’t run before you learn to walk, right? This new site design is a cumulation and result of my growth in the past three years – both personally and professionally. Social media is such powerful way to express yourself. Somewhere between still feeling like a college senior (no more stuffing my tupperware full of carrot sticks from the dining halls) and trying to adult (taxes, someone please tell me I’m doing it right), I finally found my personal blog balance.

Interview with Lush Gourmet Foods (Giveaway!)

IMG_9762

There is something about small businesses that I just love supporting. 

Maybe it’s because I grew up with a family in the small business industry, knowing that the countless hours they put in from morning to night was worth every customer smile back.

Or maybe it’s because I know how much passion they have for their brand, because passion is the key that drives them forward – even when no one else shares their vision.  

And at the end of the day, it might be that the ideas are truly unique and overall, it’s a damn good product or service. My friend Bisera’s company Lush Gourmet Foods, reflects all of these qualities and more.

What happens in 2 months time, may you ask?

I ran the Chicago marathon. (Just your casual 26.2 jog around the neightborhood)
My cousin got married. (Congrats, Rebecca!)
I gave my first business presentation to the Senior Vice President of Technical Operations for United Airlines. (UNREAL!!)
I finished my first class in grad school. (later, Econ!)
Then I registered for my second semester of grad school. (3 semesters to go!) 
I got my first flat tire…that I didn’t know how to change. (I know, I’m car incompetent.)
Then I had to fork over major $$$ for all weather tires, which, is a thing in the North. (First world problems…..especially for someone who lived in the South all her life….now I know!)
I met one of my biggest role models, who happens to be a Registered Dietitian. (Jenny Westerkamp, founder of All Access Internships, former dietitian for the Chicago Blackhawks, and current store manager for Kitchfix)
