Instead of the classic deviled egg recipe, I created a new and improved version of deviled eggs today. They are called “Angel-ed Eggs”. It’s my healthy take on deviled eggs. First, I hard boiled a bunch of eggs (the more the merrier). I removed the shell and cut them in half. Then, I carefully took the egg yolks out and…

Almost Eight
I almost left for my run at eight o’clock (it was around 7:40am). I almost ran eight miles today (it was really 7.87). Before I left I had some cereal, it was probably almost eight times what is pictured here. Give or take 😉 I almost eight ate oatmeal, but decided I needed to use up the cottage cheese so…

All I Want For Christmas…
I was reading the latest issue of Runner’s World last night (while watching The Biggest Loser) and squealed with delight when I found their “Best of” section. It sparked inspiration for my my Christmas list(minus one or two things). Normally I forget what I want and blank when people ask me, but this year I made a list. I don’t…

Favorite Vegetable
Brussel Sprouts are my favorite vegetable of the Fall and Winter. I am a HUGE SALAD girl during the warmer months, but when it comes to cooked veggies – brussels are the way to go. I roasted up a sheet pan of them and Ben and I ate them all with dinner. The sauce: 1 teaspoon each: soy sauce, rice…

Wake Up!
Today I went on a mission for energy beverages to give me a boost during my afternoon slump. I came back with two things – Zevia soda (which I’ve already tried) and Zenergize. Both are sweetened with Stevia 🙂 Zenergize are drink tablets with B vitamins, anti-oxidants, ginseng and caffeine. I haven’t tried them yet, but I’m excited to see…

Off Schedule
My schedule is “off” lately because I’ve been getting up later, running later and eating breakfast super late! This means I am super empty for a big breakfast and throw off the rest of the day’s eats. Before I left for my run this morning I had a small bowl of Clifford Crunch because it was on sale I want…

Stink No More!
Remember when I was all excited about my new running shoes? Well, after running in them a few times I’ve decided they didn’t offer enough support so I took them back today. I traded them in for a pair of old faithfuls, Adidas Supernova… The salesman mentioned that I get 25% off of everything today (and today was the last…

Own worst critic
It is very common for people to say they are their own worst critic. But – that doesn’t make it okay. Last night, in addition to writing a negative post about my run, I spent most of dinner talking about how my running is crap and I really want to achieve “x”, but I suck blah, blah, blah. After I…

20 mile break down
I kinda wished I could have titled this post “20 mile Break Dance” and tell you how I did crazy break dancing moves on my run today and got the cars passing by to honk. But, that would be a lie. After Panera Bena nd I hit up Costco for samples, I mean groceries. When we got home I had…
