Yesterday was Saint Patrick’s day. A lot of people celebrated and a lot of people drank a lot of beer. Not me (unfortunately). I did not even one beer yesterday. Not even a sip of beer. What did I do instead, you ask? I ran a very slow half marathon. I finished the race, and…… Continue reading A Slow Half…
The other day I did what some people think is sort of a strange thing (but I don’t). I signed up for Weight Watchers. Over this winter I have put on a few pounds, and I decided to take control of the situation and WW helped me several years ago – so I decided to…… Continue reading The other day…
Hi there blog readers. Another weekend in New England, another snow storm in New England – that should be the new saying around here! It started snowing around 4 o’clock Saturday afternoon and it is 6:30 in the evening the following day – and guess what? It is still snowing! I am fine with it,…… Continue reading A weekend of soup
Hi everyone: It is snowing yet again in New England and I made the perfect dinner to go with the snow: Crock Pot Cauliflower and Sweet Potato Bisque. I found this recipe online a couple of months ago and had been really excited to try it for weeks – but things have been so busy,…… Continue reading Caramel and Cauliflower
Hi there, everyone! So far I am sort of enjoying the couple of days I have been basically trapped in the house and snowed in.

I am also patiently awaiting the Blizzard of 2013. Right here in Providence we are expecting up to 3 feet of snow!!! As storms go,…… Continue reading Awaiting the Blizzard
I was so thankful for a “not so bad” Monday – how about you? Is it bad that at the end of the day on Monday I sort of have an internal celebration that I’ve made it through the first day of the work week? I might be the only person who does that, I…… Continue reading Not Bad for a Monday
Hi there blog readers. I had a lovely weekend – I hope you had the same. The weekend was full of cold, New Englandy winter weather, some of my favorite people, a good run and really good food. I could not ask for more. I went out to dinner and frozen yogurt on Friday night…… Continue reading A Great Weekend
Hi there, blog readers! How have you been? I have been so busy working on a lot of different projects – hence not as much blogging. But rest assured, even though I have not been blogging every day, I have been focusing on healthy eating and living these days! Right now we are in a…… Continue reading A Go To Dinner
Well, somehow I survived the five day work week. Everyone around me was coming down with the stomach bug, the flu, or a nasty cold. But somehow I have remained healthy – so far. Yes, I just knocked on wood. I made a big culinary purchase this week – and I almost wonder if it…… Continue reading Sunday
