Hi! Didja miss me? (The answer to that question is YES). I know I’m been slacking on the blog lately, but honestly, I don’t feel too guilty about it. I feel like I don’t have that much to talk about for the time being, so I’m….not. I still want to check in every once in [...]

How I Stir Fry
In my last post I talked about one of my two “go-to” meals, a big pot of yummy soup. I mentioned my other "go-to” was a big stir fry. Just like with my soup-making skillz, I feel like I’ve gotten pretty good at making a decent stir fry. I press a block of extra-firm tofu [...]
Have Twitter, will Roast Chicken
UGH I had this whole post written and then Windows Live Writer gave out on me. Serves me right for not saving often enough! Tonight, I was going to pick up a rotisserie chicken for dinner, but when I got to the store, they were all out. Not wanting to drive to another store (what [...]
My New Crazy Endeavor, and Why I’m Becoming Popeye
In my last post I asked if you’ve ever done a workout that made you say “WTF AM I DOING” halfway through, and a few of you said yoga. Well, I think I have stumbled upon the craziest of “WTF yoga” out there—Bikram. A friend of mine talked me into going to a class, and [...]
Not the New Rules of Blondie Baking
As I mentioned, I made blondies for the terribly sad and depressing and I don’t want to talk about it football game on Sunday. And as anything with a stick of butter and a cup of brown sugar would be, they were really, really good. They have the texture of a brownie with the taste [...]
Detox Recap and Another Newman’s Review
So, remember in my last post when I was talking about this detox and how good I was feeling and how it was going to last until Sunday? Umm…as of 2 PM yesterday, the detox is dunzo (yes I know I’m quoting Kristen from the Laguna Beach days…don’t judge). I had a piece of chocolate. [...]
December Goals and November Remembered
Hello friends! My day has been…well. it’s over, let’s just say that. I’m going to a desperately needed Happy Hour with a girlfriend after work, so I have to get my butt up and go to the gym in the morning. Which means I’m going to bed an hour ago as soon as I hit [...]
Secret-Ingredient Recipe Testing
Hello friends! First off I feel the need to apologize for not being as “on it” with commenting on your blogs as I usually am. I’m still reading (believe me!) but I’ve been super busy this past week with my freelance side job, and I’m trying to be responsible (since, you know, I get paid [...]
I Don’t Look Bad as a Blond
Hola! I wanted to thank everyone for their thoughts on my numbness issues that I mentioned in my last post. I did get the shoes from a running store, but I got the “newer” version of the shoes I got there last time, so maybe I should have spent more time looking at other options. [...]
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 [...]
