Good evening! Monday’s are pretty rough, but at least it’s behind us now, right? You may have noticed (or not?) that I haven’t been posting recipes on the ole blog lately, or as often as I used to. This is because I was getting into a bit of a cooking rut, and I wasn’t about [...]
Quitter, Quitter, Chicken Dinner

A Few Days in the Life
Happy Easter and/or Happy Sunday! A few hours ago, there was an earthquake in Baja California (Mexico) that we totally felt!

But it means less time for blogging! (Side note, for you students out there, if you’re looking for reference info at the [...]
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 [...]
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 [...]
