Goals for 2011

I love reading the posts that are popping up recapping 2010 and looking forward to 2011. I looked in my archives for my goals for this past year and couldn’t find anything. I’m sure I wrote something down, but I know one of my main goals was to branch out on my own career-wise. And [...]

Looking Ahead

Ahoy! I hope you all had a very happy Christmas, I know I did. I have to say this was my favorite holiday season as an adult. Things just felt more settled in my life this year and I think living in our new house helped with that.

This post comes to you today from [...]

Four Days Till Christmas!

We are done shopping, and I have to say we probably went a little crazy with gift giving this year and now I have to wrap it all. I will be making two Christmas dinner twice this week, one on the 23rd and again on the 24th and for me that is very exciting…new recipes! [...]

A Year Without

It’s almost 1am as I type this and I can’t sleep. Honestly, I have so much that I want to write about lately and I know this is because this wonderful/interesting/strange year is coming to a close. And as I look ahead to the next, I see opportunities to progress even more.

2010 Reflections Part One

I’m doing this post a little earlier than usual because the past year has been on my mind. When I look back over 2010 I feel joy over experiences, people, travels and adventures. Here is a long, at times random list of moments that I remember from the past 11.5 months.

Healthy for the Holidays Continues

I wanted to update on some of my activities of this past week. It was hard for me to stay on top of regular updates, but I made sure to take a few photos.

I catered a benefit for Kenyan children this past Wednesday. It was a nice challenge and great fun. I had a [...]

Our first 5k

We made it home from ourĀ firstĀ 5k adventure yesterday afternoon. We left home Friday evening to travel down to Winston Salem, NC, only an hour and forty-five minute drive. We picked up our packets as soon as we arrived. My packet was missing my shirt, safety pins, and coupons which I was a little sad about. [...]

Repeat Meal: Macaroni and Cheese + Spinach Salad

I try to shop local as much as possible, but lately I’ve been watching our grocery budget a little closer, so my solution is this: all produce, meat and eggs are local, everything else I buy from the regular grocery store. The cost is pretty much the same except for poultry. I can get a [...]

First Snow!

Yesterday evening was our last run/walk until our 5k tomorrow in Winston Salem. We’re participating in the Misteltoe Run 5k and Half-Marathon. Headed out this evening to pick up our packages, check into our hotel, and hopefully eat something delicious.

On our run it began to snow and it was magical!

We’ve never been [...]

200 calorie breakfast

In an attempt to get my eating under control. I’m writing down everything, and I mean everything that I eat from now until Christmas. Why is it that when I get exercise under control, my eating is all over the place. Yet, when my eating is in check, my exercise is nonexistent?
