Due to the fire at my work (check out the short article The Herald Journal did on it here) and also to the upcoming Pioneer Day holiday weekend, there will be no Change It Up Challenge post for this last week (although I did try out something new—I just haven’t had the time to blog …
Here’s What’s Cooking: Tuna Pasta Casserole
One of my favorite websites I’ve discovered to help me along in my weight loss goals is eatbetteramerica.com, which not only offers free coupons (yay!), but also offers hundreds of “healthified” versions of America’s favorite comfort foods. Since Matt and I were getting a little sick of just eating ground beef and chicken as our …

Change It Up: Morning Scripture Study
