Look what I opened the door to find yesterday afternoon…. Uh…snack food heaven?! I wanted to do back flips I was so excited with the quantity and quality of this box-o-samples. Thaaaaaaaank you to Sally over at Newman’s Own Organics for graciously sending me all of these products to try. Someone over at that company … Continue reading »

The Napping House
Anyone out there remember that book? Well, my house is similar today… Goodness, they are all so cute – I can’t even handle it. We woke up to snow (sad panda), so I made some warm things for breakfast. A cup of coffee and pumpkin oats. In this bowl: ½ cup oats 1 cup milk … Continue reading »
Top Ten
I’ve been pretty bored with my own posts/eating lately – so I’m mixing it up. I present to you…my top 10 foods, and how I like to eat them. In order… #1: A is for Apple Maybe it’s because I’m a teacher. Maybe it’s just a fantastic coincidence. Either way, I love big, crispy, juicy … Continue reading »
Happy Apple Dog
Meeker and I are headed up a stunning little mountain town called Estes Park for the day. We are taking the wild puppy, so it should be a real adventure. I quickly threw together a tasty breakfast to get me down the road. A toasted pita with an egg and lots-o-salsa… Delish. I will leave … Continue reading »
The Very Hungry Caterpillar
So far, day one of fall break has been a success. I slept in until around 7:30 – and lay in bed for another hour. Wonderful. Then I hopped up, threw on shorts, sweatshirt and a snow hat, and went to the doggie park for a couple of hours. The weather was nice and fall-like. … Continue reading »
Love, Hate.
I woke up this morning and realized I didn’t have pins for my race number, so I had to go the grocery store at 5am. I told you I wasn’t prepared for this race. WHY I LOVE RUNNING… However, despite that, I really enjoyed the race. After the 1st mile, I forgot about the pain … Continue reading »
Don’t take your dog…
That little scratch on my left foot is merely evidence of a much larger mistake that I made this afternoon… Don’t take your dog on a bike ride the night before running a race. If you stupidly choose to disobey this rule, here are some guidelines… No matter how many times you’ve done it, don’t … Continue reading »
Regroup
Apparently I am running a half marathon tomorrow… Because this week was so crazy at work, I haven’t really given the race much any thought whatsoever. I am supremely glad that the first race I ever ran was a marathon, and now all other races seem entirely achievable and non-intimidating. As far as I’m concerned, … Continue reading »
Don’t end, don’t end!
Breakfast this morning was inspired by Holly’s guest post earlier this week. No, I didn’t have a jar of peanut butter for breakfast. I had the most fantastic yogurt mess ever. There were so many delicious things in the almost empty jar of peanut butter that I almost don’t know where to begin. Almost… ½ … Continue reading »
Free Food Fest Continues
First of all – this is my best friend modeling a shirt with lyrics from one of my all time favorite songs. She’s so hot; I had to put it out there. I wasn’t really hungry this morning, so I had a little bit of my leftover pumpkin pie in a bowl from last night … Continue reading »
