Let the countdown begin! School starts in 10 days! My son is going to be a freshman in high school. I would like to know when the heck I got so old! I remember my first day of high school very clearly – I was terrified! LOL! Obviously it all [...]

Okay, so the “Slackerville” isn’t completely accurate, but in the area of menu planning it is. I have been swamped! Not only have I had “normal” craziness going on, but my baby turned 8 last week and we had a cookout on Saturday and spent the day Sunday with Grandma L. at the [...] Here we are in August. I can’t believe the kids go back to school in 23 days. No counting down going on around here! This week is Hannah’s birthday week. Her birthday isn’t actually until Friday, but she had a party with her friends yesterday and we are having [...] I was pleasantly surprised to see the new Gluten-free Bisquick arrive on my front porch the other day. Live Gluten Freely sent me out the sample to review (I received this item as a complimentary sample). There are many recipes on the box and the Live Gluten Freely/Bisquick website, but I had scones [...] Happy 4th of July! How are you spending this holiday weekend? The weather here has been picture perfect – lower humidity, clear, blue skies and perfect summertime temps of about 80 -85 degrees. I kicked off the weekend with a 2000m swim at the pool yesterday morning, then I went to donate [...] I can’t believe that June is over and that Christmas is less than 6 months away!! Where did this year go? It seems like I blinked and it was gone. I was so excited to see that baby back ribs were on sale this week! They were $2.49/lb, that is down from $4.49/lb. [...] Sometimes getting in enough servings of fruits & vegetables daily can be tough, especially for kids. I have tried to consistently offer fruit or vegetables or both at each meal throughout the day so that my kids are aware that they are part of a healthy diet and aren’t going away anytime soon. [...] I have a new love. No, I am not leaving my husband, as he is the love of my life, my new love is a bagel. Specifically, an Udi’s gluten-free bagel. I have had many a gluten-free bagel and not one of them lives up to Udi’s. Not only are they the best gluten-free bagel out there, but they are becoming more & more available across the US. The bagels can be ordered online or found in Whole Foods and other health food stores. Some lucky people are able to get them at Einstein’s, though I believe this is only happening in Colorado. What I like best about Udi’s [...] This has been a busy week! Yesterday I hit a PDR (personal distance record) with my running. I ran 20 miles! This was the hardest week of my marathon training. Now I am in the tapering stage. I was able to do the 20 miles in 3 hours 14 minutes [...] Phew! The end of a crazy week! I can breathe a little now. While this week is slowing down socially, it will be my craziest running week in my marathon training. This week my mileage will peak at 40 miles, with a 20 mile long run on Saturday. I need [...]  |
