Super-cool news at the bottom of this post!! Well, cool for me, anyway. I had big plans to do lots of Christmas shopping today. Go ahead….ask me how much I got done. I did buy 1 1/2 presents online…so that’s something, right? I was really lazy today, and honestly, it was nice. Except for the [...]
Life in List Form
Hey! Remember me? I’m Hallie and I have a blog It’s finals time for Mitch which means editing time for Hallie. I love editing and proofreading, actually, so I don’t mind at all. But it means less time for blogging! (Side note, for you students out there, if you’re looking for reference info at the [...]
Na-MOO-Ste Contest Entry: Spicy Cornbread
Did everyone have a nice Thanksgiving? Mine was just lovely. I didn’t take any photos because well, I was teased enough for making a pie that had tofu in it (or rather, that I was trying to keep it a secret. Grrr!). But suffice it to say the evening was a success, and we only [...]
Blogging about Blogging
I was so proud of myself this weekend. I planned out the week’s dinners (well, through Thursday), shopped for the ingredients, made my workout schedule, etc. I felt so organized. But then last night, Mitch suggested that instead of me taking Nina for her walk in the morning, I should take her after work instead [...]
Gringa Tacos and “Purple” Yams
I wasn’t going to post tonight’s dinner because I wasn’t sure how good it would taste. We all know I love my Mexican food—in fact, I went “off-campus” for lunch today to a local Mexican joint and had some yummy grilled fish tacos. Well, before I knew what I was doing for lunch I had [...]
Veggie and Vitamin-filled Dinner
Tonight’s dinner was so good, I’m posting it even though my photos, well, suck. (I really think I need a new camera, but also the lighting in my condo is terrible. I need to do more experimenting with lighting…and learn how to take photos! I think my blog will be 100% better if I can [...]
Bootcamp Done and Done! Final Results
It’s been quite the 12 weeks, friends. About a month into the program, I knew that time would go by really fast and before I knew it, I’d be finished with my bootcamp. And here we are. Today was my last bootcamp workout, and tomorrow I’m going to have my “after” photo taken by a [...]
Healthy Twists at Dinner Parties
Well…this is a BIG week over in the Healthy Twists household. Last week of bootcamp! It’s been quite the 12 weeks, friends. I’ll go over my general reflections about my experience later this week, as well as the results of my final weigh-in, but I wanted to thank all of you who have stuck by [...]
I am SO Resourceful
Did everyone see my post on Health Blog Helper about Twitter? I had so much fun writing it…that’s how big of a nerd I am for Twitter. I was really thankful to Matt for giving me the opportunity to share what I’ve learned in my professional and personal use of Twitter over the past 10 [...]
Meal Prep Extravaganza
Is this week dragging for anyone else? I know it’s already Thursday, but…it’s only Thursday! Not even Friday which means not the weekend yet. Le sigh. Last night, I got home, took Nina for her walk, and then proceed to tear up the kitchen (and the grill) for the rest of the night. I told [...]
