I thought “setting an intention” was for yoga — and it was my least favorite part of the class. I live in a neighborhood where it’s easy to live without intention, to be downright scatterbrained. We’re minutes from Whole Foods, Trader Joe’s, Publix, Earth Fare, my favorite Piggly Wiggly, and a few local specialty markets. If I want to eat a particular thing at a particular moment, I can just go get it, as long as I’m willing to get dressed. But even a quick trip to the store takes 20 minutes, and now that I’m working full-time for the first time in 17 years, in an actual office, I’d rather spend that time with my family.
This year, I want to shop less, and with more intention.

Typically, kitchen finishes involve shiny, uniform surfaces. But consider that there is nothing quite like wallpaper for making a big impact in a small space (like your kitchen).

This six-ingredient salad right here has been my lunch for the past week — and it’s looking highly likely that I will have it again next week! Made with a simple lemon-miso vinaigrette, this combination of tender kale, chewy farro, and nutty chickpeas holds up very well for several days in the fridge. All I have to do come lunchtime is scoop a portion into a bowl. With some orange segments and a slice of toast on the side, this easy lunch keeps me happy all afternoon.

This week we talked about the No-Lettuce Salad Movement and shared recipes to get you started on the leaf-less life. I don’t want to come off as someone who doesn’t enjoy a bowl of tender greens in the summer — that’s not the case at all. It’s just that salad greens are what I wait for in the spring, and I’m very enthusiastic about the first shoots that emerge as spring arrives.
But right now, when the forecast says wintry mix and I’m craving something bright and satisfying, I make a salad of sturdy greens and root veggies, and then I microwave my dressing. Yep — in the microwave it goes.
