and this is everything I eat in a day.

I'm typically getting up around 7:30-ish,

which I'm really liking,

just maybe because the house is so quiet.

I do not brush my teeth until later

'cause I have my cup of coffee first.

And I think it would be gross

if I had toothpaste mouth with coffee.

So I start with my coffee in my keeping room

that has my little fireplace in it,

three out of eight of my dogs.

Sometimes I do this really cool little journal thing

and then a mantra for the day.

Sometimes I pull my tarot cards

because I'm kind of witchy like that

and I really like witchy stuff.

Always call my mother every day, twice a day.

I typically do not eat until 11-ish

and I'm really enjoying Frosted Mini Wheats.

I love them so much and I can't stop eating them.

And everybody gets mad at me

because they think I need to eat something more well-rounded

or healthy or has protein or whatever.

But I'm telling you, they really work for me.

Oh, and I use Lactaid, which I'm also really enjoying

because I have not been able to drink milk

since I was like 14.

So, Josh is our big breakfast maker

and he's an excellent breakfast maker,

so I just let him do that.

That's my gift to him

is allowing him to make all of us breakfast. (laughs)

It's typically eggs.

Like, he's really good too with, like, eggs over medium,

which I really love.

And bacon, I can't have eggs without bacon.

I think that's weird.

I do love a good egg scramble.

Like just cheese, tomatoes, eggs, Tabasco. Yes.

Now I'm getting hungry.

So, that's breakfast.

Because I eat breakfast late,

I probably don't eat lunch till two-ish.

So I live in the middle of nowhere

and I can't order anything in.

I can't, like, run to a smoothie bar and get a smoothie,

I have to make the smoothie.

I can't get like a pasta salad or a hamburger.

I have to make it

and then I have to clean it up and put it all away.

So you get to a point and if the kids aren't home

and they're at school, you're just kind of like,

I don't wanna bother.

So I might have another bowl of Frosted Mini Wheats.

I do drink tea and because I love herbs

and I love healing herbs and plant medicine,

I love to make my own teas,

though I haven't quite nailed that down yet.

Sometimes they're really disgusting, but I'm getting there.

Josh is also, he tends to feed me a lot.

This has been kind of eye-opening for me. (laughs)

He makes the best sandwiches. He goes all out.

I'm the kind of person who's like, all right,

just throw me some bread, some bologna

some cheese, some mustard, some tomato, that's fine.

He does, like, the lettuce, the tomato, the sliced onion.

Makes an aioli at times, like, takes a lot of pride in it.

Anytime I have to go in for groceries

or any of that sort of thing,

we make a day out of it and have lunch

'cause my mom and I do everything together.

We go to this great Italian restaurant in Park City

called Bartolo's.

It's simple, but really good homemade pasta, great salads,

like this burrata and beet salad that I crave.

Quick, simple, delicious lunch. I also love sushi.

There aren't like tons of sushi places in Utah

but there are a couple really exquisite ones

down in Salt Lake.

So if I'm gonna make the trip down to Salt Lake,

which is a good hour drive,

I always make sure we plan for Chop Fuku.

I think my favorite, favorite favorite is uni,

which is shocking and surprising

because when I was in my early twenties,

I wouldn't have touched it with a 10 foot pole.

Honestly, the more children we had, the earlier dinner got.

They come home from school,

they start trickling in at about 14:30.

Well now my oldest daughter is in a dance class

that sometime doesn't get out till late.

So we used to eat together at about 17:30, I would say,

because they come home from school hungry and it's later.

Like, Joshua comes home at 15:30,

that's too late to like have a big snack

but it's way too early for dinner.

So I'm trying to, you know, get them to hold off till dinner

because if I give them a big snack, they will not eat dinner

and then it's a fight and I don't wanna fight at dinner.

We just started moving it up earlier

so that everybody would be hungry and eat

and we could eat together.

Poor Naleigh has to eat alone

when she comes home from dance though.

We save her a plate.

I go through my phases of being really kind of a health nut

and really going for, I did a whole plant-based thing

for a while

but I haven't found a way to really sustain that.

Instead, I've kind of moved more towards just embracing

whole foods and just kind of well-rounded meals

and maybe trying to eat a little less of it

if I wanna drop a few.

My dairy issues are confusing

because I can't just drink milk,

but I can have, like, half and half or cream.

I can't eat ice cream, but I can eat cheese.

Bell peppers. Can't do it, I hate them.

I think they ruin a meal and a lot of people love them,

and unfortunately my children will never know

because I refuse to buy them.

I don't want them in my house. They linger on everything.

Even if they're sitting next to something

and you don't eat them

but they've touched the food you are eating,

you can taste them.

They're so pervasive and I don't like that

it overpowers everything else.

And I will be burping them up for days.

That can't be good for you.

And then dinner is typically my terrain.

Like, now at this time of year for us,

we're doing a lot of crock pot chilies, a lot of stews.

Oh, we have an air fryer.

We do a lot of salmon in the air fryer.

I'm really a big fan of the pressure cooker.

I do a pumpkin Turkey chili that's so delicious, so easy.

It's from the Skinny Taste Cookbook. I love that gal.

That's my favorite go-to.

My kids love that. My husband loves that.

I can make it super spicy for me

by adding jalapenos if I want to

and everybody else can have it mild

if they want it that way.

My other favorite and super family favorite

is Spaghetti Bolognese. We do a lot of that.

Now, I used to make my own sauce,

now I use Rao's jarred sauce. (laughs)

Oh, and Meatloaf.

I have my mother's Meatloaf recipe

and it's my all time favorite meatloaf.

I've never had another meatloaf that I love more than this.

So easy.

It takes maybe 10 minutes to prep

and then just takes about 50 minutes to bake.

I like to cook. In fact, sometimes I love to cook.

Especially for like a special occasion

or a specific reason or to host.

But daily cooking, in and out, in and out,

all day, every day, because you're prepping, cooking,

cleaning, it's a lot, and I get really burned out

and don't wanna do it.

For somebody who doesn't want to deal with food,

I really love food.

So if I am in any city or anywhere where there's easy access

to a million great places to eat, that's what I want to do.

I don't necessarily wanna tour the ruins.

I wanna go to a great restaurant.

This little visit to New York has not let me down.

Food is excellent. (laughs)

Here, I'm very excited to dive into some Indian food.

I have not found great Indian food in Utah

and I love Indian food.

So I have to make it if I want to eat it,

but not in New York.

I love chicken tiki masala. I make a lot of that.

I have some great recipes for it

that are probably not as authentically amazing

as a restaurant version, but doable.

Yeah, that's my go-to. That's my favorite.

That's what I always order.

Butter Chicken, I also really love.

But I like it spicy as hell.

I never used to be much of a sweets person

but now every night after dinner I have to have a FatBoy.

Do they sell those here or is that just a Utah thing?

They're called FatBoys and they're ice cream bars.

They're amazing and they're small, so it's not like,

you know, I'm not eating 4,000 calories worth of them

but I still want it.

And then some of my favorite nights though

are just a cheese plate, like a charcuterie.

I love nice cheese too. I love really stinky cheese.

Like, the kind of cheese that you open your fridge

and you're like, my God.

Like a peppered salami or calabrese, like the spicy salami.

Again, I like cheese plates or charcuterie

and a glass or two of wine.

Since it's hard to go out, we have to make them.

But I have several favorite drinks.

You know, I'm not that picky.

Though, my all time favorite is a dirty vodka martini.

I do love a Negroni

and I do love something called a Martinez.

And I feel like not a lot of people know about this drink

but it is, I think, elegant and delicious.

I think Angels were singing Joy in a cup.

And it is equal parts, nice gin, sweet vermouth,

and then just a bar spoon of cherry liqueur,

a dash of orange bitters, shaken,

and drink it straight like a martini and it is awesome.

But if you mess it up, it's disgusting.

I've never been to a bar that makes them,

so you have to make 'em at home.

We have this beautiful 50 by 50 organic garden at our ranch.

I don't understand that a 50 by 50 foot garden

could actually feed our entire town.

I thought we needed it to be that big to feed our family,

but really you probably need a raised bed

that you could fit in your window sill.

So a lot of it, thankfully we've been been able to donate

to our local food bank and stuff,

'cause otherwise it would've just been for the deer.

We're able to get like a lot of great fresh produce.

I feel like it's been a real privilege

to be able to have that.

I love having, like, fresh lettuces, even just iceberg.

I love iceberg lettuce.

Is like, the world against iceberg? I don't know.

And I love having like a simple salad too

with just radishes, green onions and tomatoes.

So I always have those things in my fridge.

I do that weekly grocery trip and have to do the meal plan

and have to do the grocery list and have to do the thing.

And I realized recently, again with my problem with excess,

I have so many cookbooks.

I love cookbooks and I love reading them

and I love beautiful cookbooks.

And so I get carried away,

and every week I'm trying new recipes and trying new dishes.

And then I hate my life because it's so much.

Like, I have to make lists,

I have to read all the ingredients,

I have to do this whole thing.

But if I would just make the things
