We had a great day at the children’s museum today, despite having all the children of the city there to join us. It rained all day and apparently we weren’t the only ones who had the brilliant idea to find something fun to do indoors today. I’ll spare you the 100 photographs I took and … Read more
Today is a rest day, as promised to myself yesterday. And what perfect timing, the old man was totally snoring when I woke up at 5:15. (i.e., it was pouring rain, did you catch that?) Please note that I do usually NOT wake up this early in the winter. Or even spring or fall for … Read more
Never again will I look at overripe bananas and think “maybe I’ll make banana bread”. Forget banana bread. Banana bread is stupid. Banana Whip is where it’s at. Here, let me prove it to you. If you’ve got even 1 banana in your house, run to the kitchen right now. (wait. finish reading first.) Do … Read more
As usual, I was up before the rest of my crew this morning. I jumped on my bike and enjoyed this beautiful morning on a 70 minute, 15.3 mile ride. I am so grateful the warm air is here again. Back home to find the house was still quiet. Ahhh. I enjoyed my breakfast cookie … Read more
I’m happy to report that my questionable run this morning was fabulous! 10.8 miles in 1:37:54, a 9:00/mi pace. We did a 6.5 mile loop and stopped back at the running store for water, and then went for another 4.3 mile loop. Between loops, my friend Shawn and I snacked on a couple of these … Read more
I’m going to this group run but have no idea how far I’m going to today. Well, maybe “No Idea” isn’t completely accurate, it’s probably somewhere between 8 and 11 miles. I guess they have groups and have a variety of distances to choose from. I’m wondering what this is going to be like. Should … Read more
This one’s for you MJ. You don’t know the lengths I had to go to for this pic. First, I had to dig out the white glove from the bin of winter stuff. Then I had to set the timer on my camera. THEN I had to hold the camera between my chin and my … Read more
Sooo… yeah. Barbie stamps rule. As do freshly baked Rosemary rolls. And avocado tomato open faced sandwiches. They rule too. But aren’t you forgetting something? That can’t be all you’re gonna eat. What about some protein? And something sweet. Maybe crunchy too? OK I guess that will work. So what about dinner? Why don’t you … Read more
Today is a rest day as planned. Although I’d like to believe I might squeeze in some yoga this afternoon, but I know how that goes. Translation: it usually doesn’t. What is it with my gang waking up only to go back to sleep these last two days? She actually had a low grade fever … Read more
My day was quite productive! Mainly due to this: My poor honey was still feeling pretty puny this morning, she got up only to come downstairs and sleep all morning. Maxine enjoyed her freedom and ruled the roost! After my productive morning, I got down to the business of dinner. At lunch time. I told … Read more
