Rah Rah for Raw Kale and Running

Good evening! Have you entered my “blog birthday” giveaway yet? There aren’t that many entries, so your chances are pretty good!
(Don’t call it a “blogiversary.” I don’t know what but I’m not a fan of the term.
I think the two ladies who I share my CSA goodies with are sick of kale, because I got [...]

Frittata for the Grinch

Hello out there! I’ve got to get to bed because I have a date with my puppy and some hills in the morning. (Love my walking partner!) But I wanted to first of all say thank you for your well wishes and tips for my Boston trip. I still can’t believe I won and I’m [...]

Crock-Pot Mulligatawny Soup

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 fact that [...]

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 [...]

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 [...]

Housewarning Apple Crisp

Happy Monday! Ok, I lie. Mondays suck. At least this one is over. The next 5 weeks are going to be crazy for me…I just need to make it through unscathed and I will be a happy camper.
I had a few people ask me about the program I mentioned in my last post. If you [...]

Sleepy and Simple Sandwich Sunday

The upside of being a football widow (ok I’m not married but you get the idea)? I can do all the blogging (and watching trashy TV and ok, cleaning) that I want to with my “free” days. So far today I’ve ran 3 miles (one week of “official” 10k training in the bag), gone to [...]

Weighing In and Eating (Peachy) Waffles

I can’t believe I’ve been doing my bootcamp program for a month! Honestly, I’m ready for it to be over, but I haven’t reached my goals yet, so I’ll keep on trucking. I’m having trouble dealing with the fact that my eating plan goes against many of my personal beliefs about food/hunger/losing weight, etc. But [...]

Finally, Fish That’s Not Dried-Out

Happy Sunday! I need to make this quick because I’m seeing a play with my mom tonight, but I wanted to check in and share a cool trick I learned for preparing fish. I don’t cook fish that often because Mitch doesn’t like it, but I love fish so I’m glad my new meal plan [...]

Baked Beans for a Lazy Independence Day

HAPPY 4th OF JULY!
I hope everyone has been out having fun today. Me? I’ve been a total lazy bum
I know, I live 2 miles from the beach, but honestly, going to the beach, with the tons of people and drunken antics just wasn’t appealing to me. Instead, I stayed home with my sweetie [...]
