Well, hello! What have I been up to since I last posted (thanks for your awesome comments on my last post, by the way)? There was this half marathon… Ha! Gotcha. I so did not run a half. This guy did: That is SO the face of a man who needs a haircut is excited [...]

Perspective on Slow-Going Goals
Hi! For those of you buried in snow…sorry about that. Must be a bummer. Not that I would know. I really really have to go work on my final project for my intersession class…AKA a 15-minute speech with no slides, no notes, nothing! So intimidating. It’s funny because I can be on TV for work, [...]
Return to Your Breath
Boy oh boy. Where to begin. Well first, let’s pick a winner for my Rinaldi Pasta Sauce giveaway! I only had 5 people enter the giveaway, which I blame on faulty marketing on my part. I mean, I didn’t even list an end date for the contest! Blogger fail. Anyway, the lucky winner is… Lynn [...]
Product Review: TofuXPress
Happy July 1! I know I’m getting older because I’ve turned into one of those people who keep saying things like, “HOW is it July already?” I don’t even have anything all that exciting going on right now, and time is flying by. Anyone doing anything fun this weekend? My agenda includes things like: running [...]
A Second Frittata Attempt
Earlier this week, the following meal was brought about by a few things: It was finally my turn to cook, since my guy has been cooking up a storm (umm…he might have baked cornbread from scratch last night to go with chili…that he also made). I knew I’d be getting home late-ish, and needed something [...]
Hallie’s Highlights
Hey all! I’m waiting for my salad maker to finish prepping before dinner (I made an attempt to “Healthy Twist”-ify pulled pork again, and I think the meat still going to be dry but at least we have Mitch’s amazing homemade BBQ sauce to compensate) so I thought I’d show you some highlights from last [...]
Back Back in Cali Cali
Vacation over. Sad face. Although…I get to come home to San Diego so I can’t complain ever too much. Thanks to all my amazing guest bloggers! I left you with some good stuff, huh? Boston was lovely, the yoga retreat was very zen, and over it was great to step outside my normal routine and [...]
Good News and Good Eggs
Good evening! (Or night or morning, or what have you). Before we talk about breakfast, I’m finally ready to announce this on the blog: I got into grad school!! I was fairly confident that I would, but still, it’s good to not to wonder anymore. I’m going for a Master’s Degree in Nonprofit Management [...]
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 [...]
Black Bean Chipotle Soup
I think my two favorite things to cook are stir fries and soup. (Mmmm…fries….oh wait. Never mind). I love them because they are easy, relatively quick to pull together, and are so adaptable. Plus there’s the potential for lots of leftovers and the ability to basically throw whatever you have in the kitchen together for [...]
