I started the day with an hour of Dave Farmar yoga, then hustled myself out the door to work. Eleven hours later, I strolled back in the door and crashed. Here are the highlights, in terms of food at least. ¼ cup cottage cheese, 1 sliced apple, a handful of toasted cashews and cinnamon I … Continue reading »

Jambalaya and a crawfish pie and fillet gumbo…
My day started off with an incredibly energizing and vigorous spin class at 5:30. I can’t even tell you how much I enjoyed myself. Not only was the gym unbelievably nice, but the spin studio was out of control! While spinning (in a room with about 50 bikes!) the instructor put on a movie (muted … Continue reading »
A Relaxing Monday
Ahh, nothing like a day off of work, and a short week to look forward to. I started my morning with a nice sunny run, followed by yoga for runners. Then refueled with oats in a jar. I added two egg whites while cooking to pump up the protein. And coffee while I puzzled. After … Continue reading »

Good Morning! Last night, Meeker and I made some French bread while we worked on a puzzle. This morning, the logical thing to do was toast up some of that homemade bread, pour some coffee, and get back to work on the puzzle. We are headed to church in about an hour, so I still … Continue reading »

I kept going because I was waiting for the challenging part, but it never came. Boo. … Continue reading »

Mundane Monday
Today was fairly uneventful which, – in the world of 3rd grade teachers – is a pretty good thing. My eats, however, were anything but mundane. They were outstanding…and oh so filling. Lunch was an enormous salad – that kept me full for 4.5 hours. Bottom to top: raw cabbage, steamed carrots and broccoli, hummus, … Continue reading »
