I have had this post written in my head for months — ever since I saw the Exposed post that Michelle started (see all the amazing posts here).

Doesn’t technology blow? Ugh…I was working on my laptop yesterday, getting some work done so I could relax on Christmas Day when POOF! The MacBook stopped working!

It has been a very busy stretch at work — I normally count on my camera to remind me of what I’ve been doing, but after taking 150 or so pictures during the Secret Saturday adventure, I only took three during the week! And two are from this morning, when I made deeeeeeelish Apricot Date [...]

I learned many lessons during Vegan Week — and the most important one had nothing to do with food. Or, let me clarify — it had nothing to do with eating food. In order to shop, cook and ensure that all my meals were animal product-free, I planned my meals for the week. I went [...]

I was pretty much a waste of space after the half marathon on Saturday — I tried to nap but couldn’t keep my eyes closed, so I curled up in a blankie and watched college football all afternoon. I kept waiting for my appetite to flare up, but it just never happened. Runners, is this [...]

What a day! My full race recap is below, but I wanted to say a BIG thanks to everyone who supported me today on Facebook and Twitter, as well as in real life. The husband supplied me with a sweet I’ve been craving for weeks: And my Vegan Week partner in crime, Michelle, sent me [...]
