Awaiting the Blizzard

Hi there bloggies: How have you been? I hope everyone has had a great week so far. Right now I’m fighting a weird cold – but I’m feeling much better. 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

Snow Storm

What are some of the things you like to eat during a snow storm?? I think yesterday afternoon and last night we experienced our last snow storm of 2012. It was a beautiful one, too! Before the snow storm hit, I was able to get to the gym for a 40 minute work out and…… Continue reading Snow Storm

Sometimes you cannot do it all….

Today I opted to end my crazy day without a trip to the gym. Normally this irks me more than I can tell you. If it is a night I can go to the gym, I do my very best to get to the gym. Not so tonight, I guess. Last week I had a…… Continue reading Sometimes you cannot do it all….

Saturday Morning

I have two favorite times of the week. Saturday morning and Sunday morning. But if I was forced to pick one, I think I would go with Saturday morning because you have almost an entire weekend ahead to look forward to. Right now I am drinking coffee with milk, relaxing and catching up on a…… Continue reading Saturday Morning

Friday

Today is the first day I am trying a “revamped” diet. Low carbs – or should I say lower carbs. The idea makes me frown a little bit 😦 I enjoyed an iced coffee with skim milk as I drove to work and it was really refreshing. I had a Kashi granola bar at 8:30…… Continue reading Friday

Summer Run Streak – Day 9

It is a good thing that my smoothie was awesome this morning because I did not have a chance to eat again until after 1 o’clock this afternoon! The Kashi meal was not the best, but it did the trick. I was too exhausted last night to put together a salad for lunch and I…… Continue reading Summer Run Streak – Day 9

Back to Training…

So. This morning I checked my e-mail and I had a message from the BAA (Boston Athletic Association) about the upcoming 10K race. The race date is June 24 and I am officially entered. Woo! This is my favorite race of the year. It is coming around at a perfect time, because it is probably…… Continue reading Back to Training…

The Grilling Continues…

Last night we grilled again. It was so very good. I prepped a lot of vegetables… …and made veggie kabobs! We also grilled chicken breasts and one chicken and (some sort) of herb sausage and that was amazing – easily my favorite part of dinner. While we were waiting for dinner to grill up, we…… Continue reading The Grilling Continues…

Sunday Night’s Roast Chicken

Hi everyone: So, we have to rewind a little bit to Sunday evening and the weekend in general, I guess. As you already know, mom and I cooked some amazing Bittman beef and bean chili on Friday night – it was quite spectacular and I had a small bowl of it for a late lunch…… Continue reading Sunday Night’s Roast Chicken

2012 – Day Nine: Bring it on Monday…

Bring it on Monday. That was my Facebook status at 5:40 AM this morning. Woo – hoo. I actually woke up on a Monday morning feeling energized and ready to start the week. I guess it helps to know that I have a three day weekend ahead of me. (I’m hoping for some decent running…… Continue reading 2012 – Day Nine: Bring it on Monday…
