Catching On

Have you noticed that I haven’t been blogging as much?  Or when I do, it hasn’t necessarily been about great recipes that I have whipped up or this awesome creation I have come up with?  Yeah… I’ve started to notice too.  Well, more like I started to really notice and come to terms with it [...]

Settling Back In

Happy Labor Day!

We’re back from the Windy City!

Not going to lie.  We are both exhuasted and are looking forward to getting settled back in, watching Bachelor Pad and hanging out with this little Gremlin…

She was SO excited to be home.  I missed her little face way too much.

After a rather indulgent weekend on both the [...]

Guest Post: Mike's Pulled Pork

Hi everyone. Mike here subbing in for Jenna who has decided to attempt to tame Petrie tonight. It is not going well. Hope you all are having a good week. As I don’t think Jenna has mentioned, I am currently enjoying another day of what has amounted to a month off this summer. I am [...]

Over the Hump

Today.was.rough.  I’m so glad to be over the hump. There is no sugarcoating the fact that I felt like death the whole day.  Thanks Gaga, I have you to blame.

I usually get around 7 1/2 to 8 hours of sleep every night.  Last night, not so much.  I pulled in about [...]

Rewind

Is it possible to turn back time?  Because if so, I’d really like to relive the weekend that just passed us by.  I won’t forget this past weekend for a long, long time.  It was filled with family, friends, laughs, love, weddings, good food, pampering, shopping, newexercises and a surprise!

The action was literally [...]

Multi Season Meal

Happy Sunday evening everyone!  Is it just me, or did the weekend absolutely FLY by?  I feel like it was Friday night, ohh, about 10 minutes ago?  I think that means that it was an exceptional weekend, although I wouldn’t mind just one more day off.  Ah well.  Can’t win them all.

Tonight starts one of [...]

A Tad Bit Jealous

HAPPY FRIDAY! 

We’ve made it another week my friends.  Did we make it a good one?  I can’t complain about my week as it’s been filled with friends, family, work and play, all the important things in life.  There is one thing missing though… it’s the fact that I am not at the Healthy Living Summit. [...]

In Need of Food

Happy Monday evening!  Did everybody have a lovely day?

Mine was pretty solid.  Nothing too exciting, no big highs, no big lows, just a typical Monday.  I’ll take it!  I’ve got another big week coming up with the following:

Wednesday- Mom is in town for business so hanging out with her Wednesday night.
Saturday- Twins game.
Sunday- Tubing down [...]

Something to Brighten Your Day

How about we start today off with a beautiful photo to brighten your Monday?  I picked up a bunch of Minnesota grown flowers at Whole Foods yesterday because they were too beautiful not to purchase.

Perfection.

The flowers made me smile first thing this morning so hopefully they serve the same purpose to you, too.

Back to yesterday [...]

The Good and the Bad

I tweeted this morning that I had a positive feeling going into my doctors appointment for my knee this morning.  There couldn’t have been anything serious going on (at least I was telling myself that) because the pain only occurred when I attempted to run and following that attempt.

I had a lovely 45 minute wait [...]
