A Loss

On Saturday, my wonderful and amazing grandpa passed away. He had been battling for awhile, and while this doesn’t make it any easier, I am so glad he is at peace and resting now. Here is my grandparent’s wedding photo – a handsome guy, I tell you!!!!! And the photo above was just taken in [...]

ELC Challenge: Day 3

Food Blogging is kind of a lot of work – phew! (And I don’t even take good pictures…I am just lazy). I forgot to take a picture of my b-fast yesterday morning, but refer to days 1 and 2 and copy that picture of oats + PB + banana. For lunch, I had leftover tofu. [...]

ELC Challenge: Day 2

*Warning: I told you I’m a creature of habit. For brekkie yesterday morning I had my trusty oats + nanner + PB/Cinnamon. They were out of the “Creamy Smart Balance” PB at my grocery store, so I snagged the chunky stuff. MMMMmmm! One you go chunky, you never go back. (Or something like that). Love! [...]

Wishin’, and Hopin’…

…that THIS were my kitchen. Seriously. I’m house sitting this week and I REALLY am going to have an extremely difficult time going back to my kitchen. It reminds me of when I was a freshman in college and dreaded going back to my crappy old dorm room after staying at my parent’s house for [...]

ELC Challenge: Day 1

ELC = Eat Less Crap. This morning I had my standard oats + nanner + PB/cinnamon for brekkie. I went back in for anotha dip of the PB. I really think I would have a serious issue eating oats without nut butter now. I am RUINED! This is my lunch and snacks for the day [...]

Preventative or Paranoid?

So I made an appointment to see the doctor on Thursday for my knee….it might be a bit premature and I know it’s going to cost me and arm and a knee (hahaha), but it’s just really, REALLY getting me down in the dumps. I just want to be sure I find the root of [...]

These Shoes Weren’t Made For Biking…

Yesterday marked the first official training day for my triathlon on August 8th! I am a triathlon virgin, and it’s something I’ve always wanted to do. I pretty much suck at swimming and I’m not the best biker, so it’s definitely going to be a challenge. I’ve based my training program off of this program [...]

Welcome to 2009, Holly!

So some VERY exciting news to report – but make sure you are sitting down so you don’t pass out as a result of shock, horror, or pity. I moved into my house in October, and I have been living without the internet. I have it at work (well, except personal e-mail and Facebook), and [...]

Reason No. 376 I Would Like a Garmin

May I present to you, my running route one day last week. I think I might use some of my tax money to get a Garmin Forerunner 305. I’ve never had a heart rate monitor and, while I love GMaps Pedometer, I’m getting a little tired of mapping out routes to run. Especially when my [...]

To THAI For

So I am obsessed with peanut butter. I also love chicken, therefore it was only a matter of time before I married the two and set them off to enjoy their little newlywedded bliss in my tummy. One day while hard at work ( read: combing through recipes on allrecipes.com), I found this recipe for [...]
