I’m thankful it’s a short week this week after another super busy day at work. Still being sore from Sunday’s mud race didn’t help, I felt like a zombie limping out of bed this morning. I guess it’s true, day 2 is always the worst for sore muscles. My aches and pains today made me […]
New Shoes & Chickpea Stew
Can’t believe it’s Monday already … and November! I’m pretty sore today from yesterday’s mud run, my legs are making me pay for running way more hills than I’m used to. Okay, I can barely walk! But I’m one of those crazy people that actually doesn’t mind being a little sore, it reminds me that […]
Whole Foods Binge & Mud Run
Hello and happy Halloween! I’m still washing mud out of our shoes, clothes, hair and places it shouldn’t be from this mornings Merrell Down & Dirty 5k. And it was totally worth it! But more on that later. Friday night we ventured out to see a movie, Jackass 3D. I know, real mature adults, right? […]
Salads & Squash Ruts
Hi all, how’s your week wrapping up? Besides a mud race Halloween morning, we have a pretty relaxing weekend planned. I’m totally ready to wrap this week up since it was another crazy one at work for both hubby and I. We’ve never been big on celebrating Halloween, lots of friends and co-workers are doing […]
Morning Workout Break
Hello, how’s Tuesday treating you? It is getting chilly here with lows in the 40s, time to pull down my winter clothes and throw my summer clothes into storage! I also need to start shopping for warmer running clothes because this running in cold temps and rainy weather is foreign to me! Guess I need […]
Impressing w/ a Swirly Cake
Yesterday morning we had a bit of a crisis, the grinder on our grind n’ brew coffee pot broke. The motor made a pathetic faint humming sound, but no action. After cleaning and re-seating the grind cup about a thousand times – no luck, the motor was officially roasty-toasty. Crisis, right? Sure, we have instant […]
Zucchini Bread & Kabocha Squash
TGIF! Finally and I’m so happy the week is over, I don’t even mind that we’re expecting dreary, rainy, cold weather most of the weekend. Now if I can just shake this post nasal drip and unhappy insides… Anyway, I’m still focusing on saving a little grocery money this month and using up what I […]
Cranky Stomach, More Squash & Pronation
At least the week is halfway over, but I am dragging through it. Apparently I’m fighting off whatever nasty cold-thing is flying around, my sinuses and stomach have not been happy the last couple of days and I’m tired. Thankfully it does not seem to be as bad as what other co-workers are dealing with […]
Mushy Day at Apple Hill
Again with Monday, how did it get here so fast? Another busy weekend disappeared too fast! As usual I had a long list I wanted to get to from paperwork to listing things on eBay that didn’t happen. Oh well, maybe next. And this week is already off to a turbulent start with two co-workers […]
Jicama Salad & Tofu Leftovers
To decompress from the crazy week, hubby and I went to Tres Agaves last night, a trendy Mexican restaurant serving authentic cuisine and tart margaritas on the rocks. Not 14 pounds of beans and cheese with sweet lime slushies posing as margaritas. We were mesmerized watching the huge, auto-feeding machine slice and juice big batches […]
