This is not me. In case you were wondering. *Winner has been chosen! Check the comments to see if it’s you! Okay, this is probably TMI, but I have to admit that when I run, I wear three sports bras. You read that right, three. Ugh. It is ridiculous – not to mention, it’s a [...]

Oh, it’s the very last day of 2011. I can’t believe it’s here! We all wonder what is on the horizon for us in 2012. When we look back next year, what will have happened? I ask myself before the start of every year. But all I can say to you today is that we [...]
I’ve been in a major slump. I mean major. In all aspects of my life, it’s been a hard year, and I am ready to close the books on 2011 for good. With all the curveballs thrown my way this year, I lost site of me: my health, my fitness, my well-being. This is definitely [...]
I was doing the weekly grocery shopping I hate grocery shopping and came upon these new cookies. They are called WhoNu? nutrition rich cookies. I was pretty skeptical. How could cookies be nutrition rich and still be good? I decided the only way to find out was to buy some and give them a try. [...]
We’ve been having some conversations on Twitter lately about what else but chia!! And yes of the Chia Pet kind. You probably know them from this: But before chia becomes some clay-thingy’s hair, they are seeds. And chia seeds are super healthy and you can eat them.

Ya’ll know I love salad. I eat it almost every day. My kids have grown up eating it since they were old enough to eat salad. In fact, a salad is one of the few veggie-type items that I can count on them eating. It is awesome! Recently, we invited some friends over and all [...]

So today is supposed to be review it Saturday and I don’t have anything to review, at least not with any authority. I have some new things I’ve purchased recently like a pair of Aqua Sphere Vista swim goggles but I’ve only used them once. I have a new cycling helmet I’ve had a few [...]
