I had a big salad with TJ's dressing for lunch with a frozen nooodle thingy. This is one of my favorite frozen meals. It has buckwheat noodles and tofu. Added bonus: it's only 200 calories. I had a naner with PB for a snack. I try to keep the PB to a Tbsp, I think this was a little more. But, that ... Read More about Friday lunch and snacks

Because my hair was a rat's nest after my run this morning. I was so windy! The crazy wind managed to completely tangle my pony-tail into a ball of knots. I hate that. My trick to fix this is to put a ton of conditioner in my hair and comb it out in the shower. It is so much easier than trying to ... Read More about Today I love … my knock off brand conditioner

I had a handful of yogurt covered pretzels and a couple of raisins while making dinner. They come from the bulk bin and are horrible for you. The nutrition information says they are 200 calories for 1/4 cup. I don't think that is right because the mix is mostly yogurt pretzels. You can only fit ... Read More about Don't call it Supper
