My mom, sister and I are on a mini-vacation this weekend. We are in Maine at the Harraseeket Inn, one of our favorite places. We got into our room where we were greeted by some food and goodies: Champagne, chocolate covered strawberries and a cheese and fruit plate (thanks to our fantastic friend Leanne!). But…… Continue reading Weekend Get A Way
I have to tell you – nothing beats half a grilled cheese and tomato sandwich! I am so glad that I did not cancel my lunch with my friend Mary Alice. The moment I walked in to my favorite restaurant, I started feeling better. In all of my years, I had never noticed that Red…… Continue reading Lunch
I have a road trip coming up this weekend with my mom and sister… so I decided to make a batch of the oh so popular homemade granola bars. Now that I have made them a couple of times I can crank these out in no time. They are so much better than anything you…… Continue reading Homemade Granola Bars
So, I made it to the gym again – it was rough going this morning. I had zero motivation, but somehow I managed to get going. I walked 2.25 miles again today, in just under 40 minutes. Then I biked and I got my ‘level’ up to 5 today. I did 2 1/2 miles on…… Continue reading Another day, another ginger scone

Good morning, bloggies. Today was my day to get back on track. I hate to admit it – but Monday morning I did not get up until 10:30. I had stayed up late watching the Oscars (why!?) and was up way too late on Sunday night. So last night I tried to go to bed…… Continue reading Good Morning…

Today I took a big step in my road to recovery… I went to the gym! It was raining outside, so I knew I could not go for my walk outside. I called my gym to see if I could re-activate my gym membership which had been ‘frozen’ for the past couple of months while…… Continue reading The Road to Recovery…
Wow did those pancakes hold me over! I had two and a half “medium” sized pancakes. At two o’clock I went out for errands. Market and I picked up a tart pan for myself. What can I say? I think I might be making a tart or something in the near future. If anyone knows…… Continue reading Lunch at 4…
