Edible Skinny would like to take this moment to thank Dads (yeah, all Dads) for all they do! From being our rock to teaching us to rock it out!

You would be wrong. His multi skill set which he started developing at the tender age of 8 years old, in...
In early Spring Edible Skinny was lucky enough to spend 8 days in The Netherlands. And while on our trek of this Dutch wonderland, we discovered this country far and wide.

(the Dutch LOVE their Pancakes!) to the solitude of the North Sea...

What I find truly fascinating is that we as conscious beings, aim to be self-sufficient and evolved to the point we don't NEED others. However, communication and mastering true connection is definitely a major part of the soul's journey- and typically a challenging lesson to master. You live in a time when being able to 'connect' has never been easier. Yet, most people hardly experience true connection anymore. Why is this? Rewind 40 years. Imagine who you'd be around....

It sounds sort of counterintuitive doesn't it? The idea that creating firm, clear boundaries will actually cause a BREAKTHROUGH in your life. But, if I boiled this concept right down and said: you only have a certain amount of energy to dedicate to your hopes and dreams. And that if people around you drain you beyond your metaphorical, tank balance minimum - and you're unaware, your in danger of running on empty. That highlights a dire need to measure your energy. Don't you...

A few weeks ago Edible Skinny was lucky to spend a few days exploring Conejo Valley for a Father/Daughter Getaway.

But with a few days of R&R on the docket, we decided to catch a break in Conejo Valley. Known as a home away from home, Conejo Valley is located less than 30 minutes from the beaches of Malibu and 45...

Today this wine region is home to 530 wineries and almost 20.000 acres of planted vineyards. It's been quite the evolution, leading to Wine Enthusiast naming Oregon's...

As someone who has experienced summer camp as both a camper and a counselor, I can tell you that it will not only give the parents a rest but can also change a kid's life for the better.
