WIAW 12: NOT A Typical Tuesday

It’s been a pretty crazy around here for the last two days, thanks to the crazy Hurricane Sandy! I’ll be elaborating about that much more tomorrow, and I hope that everyone is safe, warm and dry. My heart goes out to those that suffered damage from this powerful storm.

On to happier things for now! [...]

Random Act Of KINDness V: Trick or [Healthy] Treat!

THE CONTEST IS OVER- NO MORE ENTRIES ACCEPTED.

Happy Halloween!

Whether you’re dressing up in a fun costume, taking the kids trick-or-treating, or simply staying at home bobbing for apples (and/or drinking pumpkin beer)- I hope you’re having fun!

Since it’s Halloween, I figured that it would be nice to give [...]

Maple-Vanilla-Cinnamon Cashew Cream

I have a new obsession: cashew cream.

I’ve seen recipes for different types of cashew creams in vegan cookbooks, websites and blogs for a long time. It wasn’t until my recent decision to do a vegan experiment that I finally decided to try making my own! And now that I’ve discovered just how delicious [...]

A Marathon Weekend!

Whew, what a weekend… and what a crazy start to the week! If you’re an east-coaster like me, you’re probably snuggled up inside your home, just waiting to see what Sandy’s wrath will bring. I’m just keeping my fingers crossed that I have electricity… although, sometimes losing power isn’t so bad. Wherever you are- stay [...]

Kia Ora is the official “greeting” used amongst Les Mills instructors, whether they teach Bodypump, Body Attack, RPM, Body Flow, Bodystep, are any of the other many Les Mills classes. It’s a native New Zealand term [...]

WIAW 11: It Ain’t Pretty [+ Pumpkin Sage Polenta]

I had this post all written out…

                                                …and then THIS happened…

I’m still in shock.

How did this happen? Well, for starters, I follow Bob on Instagram. When I was looking at my Instagram feed yesterday morning, I noticed that he posted a photo from Baltimore. I freaked out a little [...]

Week One Of Vegan Eating + “Sol” Food

Week one of the vegan experiment has come and gone. And it was a success!

There have been a few challenges along the way, but overall it’s been a positive experience so far. One thing that I’ve noticed physically is that my stomach feels different- in a good way. I’m kind of used to [...]

Sunday In The Treetops

What a gorgeous weekend! Fall has definitely arrived here in Maryland. The leaves have finally changed color, and there’s just so much natural beauty everywhere you look. The weather has been fantastic, and it’s supposed to be in the mid 70s all week. I really can’t complain!

Remember that summer bucket list that I made [...]

Mizuno running shoes hold a special place in my heart. When I first started getting into shape [...]
