Matt brought home this book today from a used book sale: Good for You Cookies by Jane Marsh Dieckmann. There was one "No-bake Cookie" recipe in the book that seemed super easy so we decided to see what we had in the cupboards and create our own no-bake cookies. This is what we came up with: Matt ...

Food Stealer
Lunch was nothing exciting, but I loved it - PB&J, a peach and carrots. I was still a little hungry so I had a piece of bread with more PB&J. Then, I started stealing food. Okay, not really stealing, but my friend offered me some of her fries and I couldn't say no to thick diner fries! I am ... Read More about Food Stealer
Yo quiero breakfast!
After a bad 6 miles this morning I was running super late. I normally make breakfast at home and eat it on the way to work when I'm late (which is always). But, I didn't even have time for that today, so I grabbed a plum from my bag and ate it while driving. When I got to work I made oat bran with 1 ... Read More about Yo quiero breakfast!

Bagel-fuls!
This morning I tried Kraft Bagel-fuls Whole Grain. I heard about these when they first came out and was really curious to give them a whirl. I normally try to stay away from super processed foods like this, but I figured one package wouldn't kill me. I love bagels and cream cheese, but normally stay ... Read More about Bagel-fuls!
Happy Tuesday :)
I started today with a couple of miles and a few strides thrown in for fun. Then, a walk with the perros :)I totally forgot until yesterday that I bought Bagel-fuls a while back.

Amy's for Dinner!
Tonight for dinner I had Amy's Tortilla Casserole & Black Beans Here's how it looked after being micro-ed. It doesn't look as good at the pic on the box, but it was very tasty! I really enjoyed digging into the layers of tortilla and cheese. I did top it with a little hot sauce though :) I ... Read More about Amy's for Dinner!

Well, it turns out Yosemite is burning down and with the air ... Read More about Today I love … smiley faces ;)

Skirting the skirt
I don't own a running skirt. I have always thought they would be uncomfortable, "ride up" or emphasize how manly I look while running. I thought people would say, "Why is that sweaty guy wearing a skirt?" But, I really like wearing skirts and dresses in my daily life. On mornings when I am going to ...

Highlights of stuff you’ve missed…
Sorry I've been MIA for a couple of days. Last week was very crazy and by crazy I mean bad. I was getting in trouble at work and was super stressed out.

Happy Wednesday! I started the day with 6 miles. I think I said the other day that I finally had a good run, well I lied. Today was a good run. I felt good the entire time. My legs had a ton of energy. I felt fast. I could have done more. This is why I run, because it makes me feel like this. I ... Read More about Wednesday – Today I love … being happy
