A magazine at the gym
There’s nothing like going to the gym and finding a brand new magazine on the shelf. It’s the little things in life. 🙂 Before the gym, I made a small dinner last night. (Small dinner translates to way too much stand up snacking before hand.) I heated up just the broccoli from my pasta dish that […]
Healthy Eater with a Sweet Tooth
After dragging myself through about 30 minutes of cardio at the gym last night, I came home and got a lil’ crafty in the kitchen. I bought broccoli slaw at Trader Joe’s the other day after seeing Julie use it in her salads. I used Teriyaki sauce as the dressing. I also added butter lettuce to […]
The Perfect Breakfast
I jump started my morning with a big bowl of oatmeal and brown sugar. Probably a little too much brown sugar but hey, who’s counting? To accompany my oats, I had a glass of water and friendship tea that I got from my Mom. Water is the only thing I drink (besides wine) so the fruity tea was […]

Set the Goal
“I’ll just have a water please.” Those were the words my friend, Hillary and I uttered last night while out with our friends. Who knew that simple phrase would sound undesirable to others, prompting questions. “Wait, you’re not drinking?” “Aren’t you going to get a drink?” The nights I choose not to drink are often the […]
Marvelous Monday + Giveaway Winners
Instead of dreading a long trek through another Monday, I’m focusing on the shining moments for Marvelous Monday! Marvelous is attending Friday’s After 5, getting pizza with family, and sipping mojitos at Zocalo. Marvelous is going to the Cheesecake Factory with my parents on Saturday evening. Marvelous is enjoying the view at a penthouse party with my lovely […]
