If you make one soup this fall, it should probably be this one. The recipe appeared on my Facebook feed Saturday morning and I immediately said out loud, “Oh I have to make this tonight!” I love curry, and I love cumin – and these flavors were big players in this soup. It was beautiful,…… Continue reading A Great New Soup Recipe
Happy Monday evening, everyone. Today I got right back to the grind. I was out on vacation for twelve whole (amazing) days. It was wonderful. But this morning when my alarm went off at 5:30 AM, I realized I had to get back into the swing of things and back to the grind. Thankfully I…… Continue reading The Grind
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

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….
Last week was a pretty successful “back to a healthy routine” week. I exercised every single day, except for Friday when it was pouring down rain. But seven out of eight days of exercise is not bad! I also ate healthily every day, too. It is hard to balance everything, so I did not get…… Continue reading Exercise, Reading and Snacks
I’ll be honest with you – I was sort of dreading going back to work after a wonderful week of vacation. But so far the week really has not been that bad. The days are going by quickly and I have been busy and enjoying it for the most part. I hope this continues! My…… Continue reading Tuesday: Soup, and More Soup!
