Eat This: Avocado Chicken Salad
Eating healthy while having a busy schedule both of my own and of my family has been a challenge for me over the years. We find ourselves on the go, eating take-out lots of nights, way more than I ever did growing up. If not take out, then fast food in-between sporting events are the alternative. Not good.

Fuzzy Friday: Manmosa
Football season is upon us and even though we're in September, it still doesn't quite feel like fall with 90 degree temperatures. But needless to say, we still are getting in that football fall mode and with that comes tailgating and partying. And beer. So today I'm putting together a tailgating, football party twist on beer.
