My Wednesday just seems all wrong. First, I slept through my alarm. I don’t know if I’ve ever done that before!!! I was seriously shocked when I woke up naturally and noticed light peeking through the blinds. I usually wake up when it’s still dark. I immediately got a bad feeling. I jumped out of ...

Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Cakies

I rummaged through my cupboards and decided I had the goods to make Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Cookies Cakies Ingredients: 1 c. flour 1/4 ... Read More about Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Cakies
Tofu Curry Tuesday
I left my camera card at work last night so I wasn't able to show how I made my Tofu Curry. It's super easy, so I thought I'd share... First, I squeezed the tofu out overnight... For those that don't know - just put it under some heavy things with paper towels to soak up excess water. The next ... Read More about Tofu Curry Tuesday
Meatless Monday – Curry Tofu
Today was supposed to be Mexican Meatless Monday, but I had meatless leftovers to eat so I went with that instead. It’s still Meatless Monday, just less Mexican :) On Friday night (before I realized that I should keep it real at my dinner party) I squeezed tofu. Then, Saturday morning I put it in ...

Baked Tofu Sandwich
Remember when I hit up the Asian market for the ingredients for my Thai Coconut Soup? Well, I also pick up something new for lunch - Baked Tofu. I've baked tofu myself before, but this is the first pre-baked kind I've tried. I recently discovered a love for baked tofu sandwiches so I thought I'd ... Read More about Baked Tofu Sandwich

My Weekend Recap: My Last “long run” before the race Keeping it real at my dinner party – Voting is Open for Challenge 3!

Simple Sunday
I haven’t done a full day recap in a long time, but I was too busy to acknowledge life, the blog or my husband today. Just kidding, I told Ben Good Morning :) We started the day with a nice little Sunday walk and a leisurely breakfast. I made French Toast – not my Cinnamon French Toast Wheels, ...

Half Way Point
This morning I got up bright and early to run 13.1 miles. My marathon is 15 days away and I’m in full taper mode. Thank God for taper because I don’t have the time or energy to keep up 20 milers anymore. I need a break :) Pre-Run Fuel: Coffee and toast with cranberry peanut butter. Then, I was ...

Keep Your Friends Close and Your Condiments Closer
I am addicted to condiments. I love them. I’ve always been a huge ketchup fan, but over the last few years I’ve been cheating on ketchup with new beaus. Anytime I have a meal that requires ketchup (which is basically anything outside of yogurt) I add tons of condiments as I’m eating too. ...

Hello! It’s October 1st! Wow, where did this year go? This means there are only 3 months left in 2010. Three months to finish up any resolutions you made in January or a chance to add in a few new goals before 2011. I already have my 2011 Resolutions planned and they’re pretty challenging. So, ...

Stay Golden
Apparently, I’m the next Betty White because I had dinner at 5pm today. Actually, it was a little closer to 4:30, but that’s just details. It’s official, I now eat dinner (if you can call it that) before Oprah is over. (source) In reality I think I’m more “Blanche” than anyone else though… If ... Read More about Stay Golden
Three Healthy Things Thursday
Hello and welcome to a new day :) After thinking about my last few days I realize I was taking IE for granted and I need to make an effort to get back on the healthy train. Not everyone has to make such a big effort, but not everyone has to get 8 hours of sleep to avoid binging. Everyone is ... Read More about Three Healthy Things Thursday
Rearranging Things and a Rant
Hello peeps :) Hope you all had a good day! It’s Wednesday night, which means the weekend is peeking around the corner. Hang in there! (That speech was more for me than for you.)

Wordless Wednesday – Pretty Day, Lunch
Hello Old Friend
Unfortunately, lately I’ve been super busy and neglecting old friends because of this :( In this case my old friend is my foam roller. I haven’t used it at all since we moved in June! What makes it worse is June through September has included all of my marathon training – the time when I should use ... Read More about Hello Old Friend
