How to dine out healthier without feeling deprived

November 12, 2021 By Michelle Rogers

With the holiday travel season approaching, many of us will be eating fast food or grabbing food to go. But did you know that two meals at the same restaurant chain can differ by upwards of 1,500 calories? In this post on the Blue Cross NC blog, I show you what to look for if you want to make healthier choices on the go. Read story Sponsored by Blue Cross NC Continue Reading

PHOTO TOUR: Exploring wild, wonderful West Virginia

September 18, 2021 By Michelle Rogers

In late August, my husband and I took a road trip to beautiful West Virginia for a long weekend. This is something that had been on my wish list for a while. Our daughter visited the New River Gorge area in Fayetteville, W.V. a few times and knew we would love it, so on her suggestion we decided to go. I was surprised to learn that it's not that far away - only about a 4-hour drive from our home Continue Reading

RECIPE: Easy moist, delicious cornbread (regular + gluten free)

September 3, 2021 By Michelle Rogers

Making cornbread is a much-loved tradition in kitchens across the United States, especially in the south and southwest. Cornbread has its origins in Native American cuisine.

This was my first trip to Tybee Island, and my second to Savannah. I was there previously Continue Reading

Great Smoky Mountains National Park - Michelle Rogers Healthy Living

In August my husband and I ventured to the southwest part of our state, North Carolina, for a much-needed few days in the mountains. While I have been to the Blue Ridge Parkway in the Asheville and Boone areas, I had never been south of Asheville. And visiting the Great Smoky Mountains National Park has been on my destination bucket list for several years. To stay the least, this visit didn't Continue Reading

REVIEW: Renting a cabin for our mountain getaway

September 13, 2020 By Michelle Rogers

Recently my husband and I took a few days to get away to the mountains in the southwest part of our state, North Carolina. We wanted a quiet and private place to stay, but nothing that was too far away from things. And being that our state is still operating under COVID-19 guidelines, it was also important to us that we be as "socially distanced" and safe as possible. I really didn't want to Continue Reading
