We’re here! We arrived in Baltimore today, a few days ahead of Fitbloggin — sort of a combo birthday/anniversary trip (his birthday was February 22nd, mine March 17th and our wedding anniversary is April 8). The weather is go-hor-hor-hor-hor-geous! It’s actually warmer here than in Orlando! We love to travel, so the first thing we did after checking in at the hotel (great place, by the way, with an amazing view of the Inner Harbor) was head out on foot. {Read More}

We started new holiday traditions, by making and eating copious amounts {Read More}

The last thing I want to do is hurt myself more, so I may just do some gentle yoga instead. Any Jillian Michaels fans? I heart The Biggest Loser. Well, since I’m {Read More}
Day of Detox
I had a wonderful time on vacation, but as stated before, I ate: and drank: and ate: and drank some more. In fact, the last day of vacation is a blur of beer and bubble tea, courtesy of Portland (and my mom).
