Celeriac, also simply called celery root, is an unusual vegetable, one that you rarely see in cookbooks or on restaurant menus. Though, I do think it’s growing in popularity, and I suspect we’ll start to see much more of it within the health food community soon due to its great nutritional profile. Admittedly, celery root…

Mango Turmeric Ginger Smoothie
I love making smoothies on days that I feel like I need an extra boost of fruits and veggies. They pack so many nutrients in just one glass, and they’re an easy way to sneak in otherwise bland or “healthy” tasting ingredients like leafy greens, and in this case, turmeric.

A Tour of Our NYC Apartment: Dining Area + Living Room
Travis and I finally feel settled in our new home, and today I’m so excited to give you a (virtual) tour of our NYC apartment. We moved to New York City from Santa Monica, CA at the end of October, but as you may remember, it took over one month for us to receive our belongings from the cross-country movers. By the time we unpacked and found the right pieces of furniture for our new apartment, it was already the middle of the holiday season. We hosted a housewarming party at the beginning of January, during which many of my friends urged me to write a post about our apartment. I was flattered because, to be honest, I never considered myself much of an interior decorator, but I have loved putting this apartment together.
