My First Half Marathon

As you all know from my post yesterday morning, my first half marathon was an astounding success!  Never in a million years did I believe I could pull off what I did.  I am living proof that you CAN do whatever you set your mind out to do.  I should probably share the story about [...]

Mini Bar Crawl

Good morning folks!  Isn’t it nice knowing that we have another day off after today?  I’ve decided (95% sure) to not go to work tomorrow and enjoy my day off.  We get some pretty random days off which I don’t mind working those, in exchange for a free floater day.  However, Memorial Day is just [...]

Happy Saturday morning!  Friday nights and Saturdays are my favorite times of the week.  I wonder why? Lol.

Last night was a blast watching Mike’s band play.  The place was packed with friends and family, as well as rando’s, so the night was a huge success for them.  They also made a few additional connections for [...]

Unbalanced Diet

Today has not, and will not, but a ‘how to’ example on how to eat a healthy, balanced diet. Lol.  Lots of carbs, candy, sugar… you get the picture.

It has been quite a busy day in the foodie household.  It started with waking up after a 10 hour slumber.  I don’t remember the [...]

Ahhhh FOOD!

Hey guys!

Sorry I didn’t post this morning.  I was busy running.

I woke up when Mike got up for work, around 8.  Mega sleeping in for this lady.  It felt great!

For breakfast, or a pre-run meal in my case, I made us both Barney Butter toast. Sorry, unphotographed, I ate it in the [...]

Prep Work

How is everybody’s weekend going so far?  I hope great!

My morning started out wonderfully.  French toast + peanut butter + coffee= heaven. Add in wonderful company as well as the Food Network in the background and I don’t think you can argue that I could have started my Saturday in a better way.

I was [...]

Pre-run hello

Happy Sunday morning.

I am headed out the door here as soon as I finish this post to go on a run.  I always need to fuel up a bit before a run, so I have my combo that never fails me.  Half of an Arnold’s Thin with almond butter and banana.

I gives me the [...]

Got to jet

Hey guys.  I need to make this quick.  The Vikings and Packers are on in about 1 minute!

So last night when I got dressed I really wasn’t pulling a very good Julia Child.  So, I changed my costume to be called ‘a modern grandma/chef’.  Yea, I was definitely not completely digging my costume.  At least [...]

Stress got the best of me

Hey, hey, hey there! How are you all doing today? I hope it is a unanimous ‘wonderful’!

Remember last night when I wasn’t feeling good? I didn’t know if it was exhaustion and stress or if I was coming down with something. I am happy to report I am feeling much better [...]

Busy day in MN

Happy Saturday everybody!

Minneapolis is going to be buzzing with activity today. Our dear Mr. President will be in town at the Target Center. Mike and his sister left *very* early this morning to go wait in line to see him; it is on a first come first serve basis.

My gym is actually [...]
