…but it smells like it does! After heating up my lunch today my co-worker asked me, “What did you bring for lunch today?” Because I managed to bring the two smelliest lunch foods I could – cooked broccoli and egg salad! Ha. After the fact I realized that I stunk up the office. But, it tasted great! I prepped it…

No run on Tuesday?
This is my second week of “4 Runs a week” and today was really weird. I have always run on Tuesdays (well, at least for the last 5 years)! Last week I had just come back from my trip and was feeling sick so the Tuesday off from running was welcome. But, today it feels wrong. I want to give…

Time for Dinner!
After a few cold dinners on the table Ben and I have declared 7pm Dinner Time. This way he knows when he should be home and I know when I will be eating dinner and can plan my snacks accordingly. I am thinking between 3 and 4pm is the best time for my afternoon snack so I’m hungry for dinner….

The Best Advice

I truly believe the best…

I actually don’t mind it, but the trouble comes when I think I should eat lunch or dinner even though I’m not…

Day at the Museum
Ben and I went into DC today to sight see. It was the most gorgeous day! Love it! We hit up the Natural History Museum and the Jefferson Memorial. The (ONE) thing I like about living in Maryland is having so many great museums and sights so close to us! I have always loved DC and am really going to…

Egg Scramble & 12 miler
12 miles in 1:52:something this morning 🙂 I felt good, but I’m still having trouble with the hills. I have gotten a lot slower since moving to MD and I have to blame the hills! When I got back Ben was making an egg/ham and cheese sandwich. It smelled so good! I decided to make an egg scramble sandwich. I…
