Appreciating the post-heatwave weather ☀️ It’s crazy how it can go from 110 yesterday to mid 80s today 😱 I got outside and filmed a video in my hammock (aka my happy place) for the first time, with 10 tips on how to stop overeating when you’re bored! I went into psychologist mode with this one, since my master’s degree is technically in psychology 😋 link in bio! ☝🏻

I had a big sungold tomato harvest this weekend, and wanted to use them up in a way that would really show them off... and came up with this salsa fresca 😍 Bae said it was the best salsa he’s ever had 🥰 it has all the sweetness of fruity salsa (sungolds are like candy) but with pure tomato flavor, we’d never had anything like it! (It’ll work great with normal tomatoes too though 🍅) it was also the perfect way to take advantage of my big hot pepper harvest 🌶 recipe link in bio! ☝🏻

Real talk, I swear gardening is a better glute workout than barbell squats sometimes... at least I think so because I get more sore 😂🍅

This year’s big garden project (besides the 6 foot tall, 128sqft anti-squirrel cage around one of my beds lol) was turning an old broken bed from the last tenants into what I’ve been calling my tea garden 🍵(swipe to see the before & after + chamomile plant that made this tea!) Everything about it has been so relaxing and destressing, from the growing and harvesting to the drying and drinking 🌸 I’ve been having iced herbal teas from my plants everyday to cool down: this one is chamomile, but my other favorites are tulsi and my 5 crazy mint flavors! (Pineapple mint tea, anyone?) What’s your favorite kind of tea? #garden

I found these photos from my 2017 san diego visit and it’s so fun to realize how much fat I’ve replaced with muscle since then 😄 Can’t wait to lounge (& drink chocolate milkshakes) by this pool when I head back there soon 🏝 today on the blog I kicked off my new series with a post on what intuitive eating is, what kinds of eating issues it solves, and whether it can help you lose weight! And coming up next: posts on how to do it, for beginners and experienced nondieters. Link in bio 😊 #weightloss

Tis the season for avalanches of zucchinis! 💚 I planted mine late this year and felt some squash envy when everyone else was posting about theirs before mine started coming in, but for the last few weeks I have been swamped in them 😄 which calls for coming up with new zucchini recipes! This one is my favorite of the season so far: high protein, whole wheat, low fat zucchini muffins. A lot of descriptors, I know, but know that they are fluffy and moist and full of healthy stuff! Recipe link in bio ☝🏻 #vegan
