It’s almost Easter, and that means Ina Garten is ready for a big dinner party. Truly, Ina Garten is ready with a big dinner party to celebrate any day that ends in “y,” and I’m pretty sure she throws a Champagne welcome luncheon every time the mailman shows up, but she really brings it out for the holidays.

This simple solution might not seem like much, but it could be the trick you’ve needed to fit your lifestyle.
You can have the turkey. Leave the ham. Prime rib — what’s that? In my house, leg of lamb is the celebratory roast; I love its tenderness and flavor. And, of course, it’s the high season for lamb right now, as lamb figures prominently on both the Passover and Easter tables.
Have you ever roasted a leg of lamb? It may sound intimidating, but the sweet little secret is that leg of lamb is actually one of the easiest, most foolproof cuts of meat to cook. Here’s our remarkably simple, fuss-free approach to cooking a leg of lamb. It will turn out perfectly every time.

You’ve taken to heart the importance of the family dinner. You meal planned, you carved out the time to cook, you got everyone to the table at the same time. You are feeling pretty good — and you should. The Family Dinner: You did it!
But why is getting information out of your kids so hard? You’re interested, you’re available, but there’s not a whole lot of repartee going on. Here are a few tips to spark that conversation and get the kids really talking about what’s happening in their world. Any of these questions should keep your kid from asking the worst question of all: “May I please be excused?”
Eve Simmons is a busy London-based journalist who co-authors Not Plant Based, which seems to be one of the only lifestyle blogs that doesn’t try to overwhelm you with Instagram posts selected for maximum FOMO. Simmons and site founder, Laura Dennison, have both suffered from eating disorders; their site provides what they describe as “honest, non-patronizing advice” for those who might have their own complicated issues with food or exercise.
There are few things worse than getting your kids psyched to dye Easter eggs, only to have the process go horribly awry. While the supplies are all relatively cheap and easy to find, no one wants to dye a second batch of eggs (because, let’s face it, by the time the eggs gets plunked into their respective colors the kids have already lost interest).
Avoid these five mistakes to make sure you get egg-cellent results the first time around.
“Food stylist” is one of those career titles that sounds cool and intriguing and vaguely glamorous. It also conjures up retro images of some poor soul laboriously painting fake grill marks onto a pork chop, or lacquering shoe polish onto a raw turkey to get a perfectly plump Thanksgiving centerpiece that’s photo-ready.
When I was growing up, my mom was the family chef. But she also had a full-time job, so my brother and I were raised on a Midwestern diet of meatloaf, spaghetti and meatballs, and the popular Pittsburgh Sunday dinner, City Chicken and mashed potatoes.
However, after my parents became empty-nesters and retirees, they became total food obsessives. The DVR at my parents’ house was literally filled with cooking programs starring Alton Brown, Mary Ann Esposito, Lidia Bastianich, barbecue pitmaster Aaron Franklin, or my dad’s absolute favorite, episodes of America’s Test Kitchen. It was not unusual for my folks to cruise the grocery store multiple times a week for a dinner recipe that took all day to prepare, even though there would be just the two of them at the dinner table.
For now classes are 6pm and 640pm at 2840 Wildwood st in the Boise Cloggers studio.

Warrior Fit Testimonials
First, I want to say thank you for convincing me to do Tabata! I was struggling to lose weight and Finally I found something that helped! I really appreciate your coaching! - Craig T.
Ever since I was convinced to do Tabata I have seen huge results, I lost 6 pounds and gained energy in the first 3 weeks. I have been working out for 3 months before I decided to do Tabata and I struggled to lose weight.
At first I thought "How am I losing weight by bringing my heart rate up then cooling down then bringing it up again?" I don’t know how it works but it does!
Thank you!! - Theresa F.
The first day of Tabata, I wondered WHAT AM I DOING - I AM 56 !! Five weeks later I knew that it was what I needed. I learned that I could push myself well beyond my comfort zone and feel good later. I have a marked improvement in physical as well as emotional endurance. - Lyn C.
When I was first told about Tabata I was very excited from the word go, however that excitement stemmed from the fact that I had no clue what it meant. I missed the first week of class b/c I was traveling for work so when I came in during the 2nd week I had some making it up to do.
It was hard at first b/c my body wasn't used to working out at such a fast pace, but once I got into a rhythm I started to feel very good. These classes are no joke. If you stick with it you will leave there feeling stronger, healthier and overall better about yourself and what you've accomplished.
I would recommend these classes to anyone. Darrin is a great trainer and he'll keep you going with his energy.
- Jami L.
