I am super excited about a product I was just contacted to review from a home décor/kitchen supply website called CSN Stores. They have all sorts of goodies, from blenders to barstools – there were tons of gadgets and knickknacks to browse through. I ultimately decided on a stovetop skillet, because I don’t have a … Continue reading »

Yes, I want to run.
Whooooo! I feel like a billion dollars. Butt kicking runs on Saturday mornings are THE highlight of my life. Say what you will about that, but I swear, nothing makes me happier. In hopes of reaching my goal of a sub 14:00/2 miler, my buddy Deane (the Running Machine) wrote me a personalize speed work … Continue reading »
What was I thinking?
Love that morning sunlight! My breakfast was disgusting – so I’m not even dignifying it with a picture.

I ate this quickly… 3 ribs of celery, chopped 2 carrots, shredded 1 cup black beans Salsa Hummus Garlic Salt With some … Continue reading »
Finally, some cake.
Let’s hear it for Thursday. It’s my favorite day of the week because the weekend is just around the corner. Everyone is anticipating Friday, and the day just seems so manageable.

No Cook Wednesday
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 »
