…where’d the week go?! I had a busy one, that’s for sure. I attended a work conference all week, which involved after hours dinners, receptions, etc., so there were plenty of long days. One really cool thing we got to do as a team was go on a tour of Frank Lloyd Wright’s winter home, … Continue reading »

A Breakfast Worth Blogging About
Good Morning Lovelies! I hope everyone is having a fantastic weekend so far I had to share the breakfast I made myself because it would be mean not to. After reading about “The Elvis” on Lisa’s blog the other day I was intrigued - a grilled peanut butter, banana, honey and bacon sandwich? I’m not normally … Continue reading »

Frank Kush 5K and Other "Weekending"
On Saturday Charlie and I participated in the Frank Kush 5K Family and Dog Fun Run and Walk. I had grand intentions of doing a run/walk combo, and I had even been taking Charlie on some training runs. Once I got there and assessed the situation though I knew it would end up being a … Continue reading »
A Blog Pledge
This one has to do with nails, specifically with breaking a long time bad habit. For as long as I can remember I have been a nail biter. I’ve always dreamt of the day I’d have glorious, hand model worthy nails. Back in April and May I was doing really well with not biting, but I fell … Continue reading »

I hate pumpkin pie, don’t really care for most other forms of pumpkin flavored foods or drinks (and yes, I don’t even like Pumpkin Spice Lattes), and about the only thing … Continue reading »
Tales from Dog Ownerville
Just when you think the dog you adopted from the pound is finally getting fully acclimated to his new environment this happens: Apparently my dog is like Hercules because he managed to break out of his cage on Tuesday and threw himself a party in my house. Injuries were sustained by a few favorite stuffed … Continue reading »
Tempe Twilight Town Trek
You may remember when I participated in the Scottsdale Twilight Town Trek in July – Eric was out of town and couldn’t participate so Ziggy and I were partners. We all had such a blast that we decided to do it again when it came through Tempe last week. This time Eric was in town so he … Continue reading »
Ch-Ch-Ch-Changes
After a few days off from food journaling I’ve decided to no longer blog what I eat every day. When I started the blog I told myself I would keep doing it until it wasn’t fun anymore, and I’ve come to the point where I don’t find it fun to photograph everything I eat and then journal … Continue reading »
