15 miles on the docket for this morning. I’m running today with the same group I ran with a few weeks ago. I carried this tub’o melon around with me as I gathered my gear. And even managed to read this tid bit about watermelon and its awesome metabolism boosting capabilities in this article in … Read more
I’ve sat at my desk today all today like the old days when I had a “real job”. I broke for lunch and ate at my desk. When we’re child free here, not a single second can be wasted. A giant salad made up of just about every vegetable in my fridge. Red leaf, green … Read more
Check out this email I that was waiting for me from Zak’s Aunt Ellen when I got home from my bike ride this morning! Funny you should mention a juicer. The other day I was thinking that you might like my Dad’s juicer that has been looking for a new home, after having sat on … Read more
Call us crazy, but we don’t have cable television. When we moved into our house four years ago we decided we would just use old fashioned rabbit ears and skip cable to save some money. Let me be clear that this was not my idea, but I went with it. Turns out it was one … Read more
I’m still on the fence about running the Rochester Marathon this year, which is in mid September. I trained for it last year, but really it was all about just doing it AND I used it as motivation to have a guide and a schedule to make sure I was getting out there and exercising … Read more
I was excited to get up and go for a long bike ride this morning. I love running but riding is great too. I love how much farther I can go in less time, riding through town and through the neighborhoods in the early morning hours when it’s quiet and there’s hardly any traffic. In … Read more
Today started with nice and easy 5.28 miles in just over 40 minutes. While I was on my run, Zak picked breakfast from our tiny berry patch the backyard. Those little red berries in the back are currants, there are also red raspberries, small cherries and some black raspberries hiding in the pile too. Whoops! … Read more
My camera has seen better days. This is what my apple with cinnamon looks like when I don’t have my contacts in. I passed on a morning work out to “run” to the grocery store for fresh produce. Mama needs fruit! Mmmm blurry cantaloupe. And fuzzy coffee with a notebook as I made notes on … Read more
Waking up hungry, I ransacked the fridge for a bowl of pre-run watermelon. A bit of foreshadowing for more PINK yet to come this morning perhaps? Watermelon partially digested, I laced up my sneakers and hit the pavement for 32 minutes to run 4.18 miles with Jillian. Upon my return as I approached the house, … Read more
Completely OUT of vegetables on Sunday I played Supermarket Sweep in the produce section last night and spent about an hour prepping vegetables today. I see… I see… a GIANT salad in my future… yes, yes, a salad for sure. First my gorgeous watermelon: That should be enough to last a few days, wouldn’t you … Read more
