Home

There is nothing like HOME-- I never feel more relaxed and at ease than when I am under my parent's roof. I was thankful to end our vacation doing just that: resting at home. Don't get me wrong, even when we keep things low-key at the Berg household, there is never a dull moment. We cooked meals together, played corn hole and board games, pampered ourselves with pedicures and happy hour margaritas, relaxed by the pool, made sure to eat at all our favorite restaurants, and enjoyed each other's company.

Sadly, the timing worked out so that we barely crossed paths with my dad and Jason, but I was so thrilled to be able to meet my brother's colleagues and hear just how wonderful they too think he is before we sent him off to his new job in California.

True Food Kitchen

Since I have become increasingly passionate about nutrition these days, I was excited to try this restaurant, which features dishes that follow the principles of Dr. Weil's anti-inflammatory diet. While Ryan and I have discovered how delicious healthy food can actually taste, it can be extremely challenging to find a place to dine out that adheres to the same concept [probably because healthy ingredients tend to cost a little more]. Grammy and Poppy graciously offered to treat us to this wonderful dining experience and I loved every bit of the atmosphere and the meal. I'm so blessed to have a family that is so willing to accommodate my high standards for the food we put into our bodies-- I sincerely believe we're all a little better off because of it!
