Coming to Terms with My Food Addiction

In October of 2020, I had been on a strict macro counting regiment for almost 6 months. My goal was to lose the baby weight from two children and depressive eating patterns I had sustained over the previous 4 and a half years. It was working. But something was coming undone in my head. A voice I had kept in check for the previous 6 months.

Classic Tomato Soup (Paleo, Whole30, Keto)

I’m a big believer that eating some warm, nourishing soups in the thick of winter is an essential part of wellness. The broth and slow cooking is a boon for our sluggish digestion. And slurping the warm elixir comforts us, right down to our cold bones.

Tomato soup screams snow day comfort. But to be completely honest, I was never that into Campbell’s tomato soup. The texture made me think I was drinking hot tomato juice. Which just didn’t do it for me.

I love this recipe because it has a nice texture without sacrificing taste and nostalgia.

Feeding My Highly Sensitive Preschooler

I can’t remember when it dawned on me that my son is a HSP, but that understanding was a gift. This knowledge opened a line of communication between us and acceptance from me. When it comes to feeding, his HSP character trait is a big factor in our success. To an average observer, he would probably appear picky. But he’s not. He loves lamb Epic bars and eats peppers like candy. He loves a wide variety of textures and flavor but has a very low tolerance for new foods. The difference between picky and sensitive is nuanced, but matters when developing a strategy for successful feedings.
