As I’ve gotten older, my Christmas wish list has gotten much more expensive, and that’s because I just need all the technology and fancy things. Yes, need. Well this year, I decided to take it down a notch and be semi-realistic. When thinking of things I want, I came up with mostly kitchen-related items. No,…
My Favorite Things + Snack Out Loud Review
I feel like I’m constantly learning about crazy, healthy food trends and products that exist. Most recently, I learned of “Crunchy Bean Snack”. After being contacted by Snack Out Loud, I figured I’d try them out to see what it was all about. While at first the idea kind of freaked me out – dried,…
Electric Run Recap
Or as I like to call it “The 5K of Selfies” because everyone was stopped everywhere before, during, and after to take selfies. This past Saturday night, a few friends and I ran the Electric Run – and by ran, I mean power walked because one of our teammates hadn’t completely recovered from a sprained…
6 Tips for Sticking with Blogging When First Starting Out

A Few of My Favorite Things
Now that Thanksgiving has passed, it is now acceptable (according to Matt) to go crazy with Christmas decorations. Since we’ve been finishing unpacking in our new house, I haven’t gotten the chance to actually put any decorations up. It’s quite tragic, you see. Before I know it, it’ll be time to take them down. THE…
DIY First Aid Kit
When I was a senior in college (almost 4 years ago!?), I took the course “CPR & First Aid”. As the final project for the class, we had to create a comprehensive first aid kit. We were given a list of items that were required to be part of it and were told to add…
December Full Body Challenge
So it occurred to me this morning that this is my last post of November. First of all, when did November even happen? I feel like Halloween was yesterday. Anywho, I figured I’d take advantage of today’s post to plan a month-long extravaganza in the form of a workout challenge. I’ve done a plank challenge,…
My Favorite Thanksgiving Things: Part 3
So last night I was thinking about what I’m thankful for – what with Thanksgiving coming up and everything. I feel blessed for so many reasons and feel truly happy with my life.

How to Not Gain 500 Pounds This Holiday Season
It has begun. The holiday season is upon us, and we all know what that means…Food, more food, and then probably a little bit more food. I’m all about cooking up an aromatic storm for Thanksgiving and Christmas, but it’s possible I get carried away with all the delicious options in front of me at…

A Few of My Favorite Things
I have a confession: I am eating up all the holiday music, decor, and cheer already in the air. I can’t help it. I’m not one to support celebrating Christmas before Thanksgiving even happens, but I’m just too excited. For those of you who hate when Thanksgiving is overshadowed by the upcoming Christmas season, don’t…
Scenes from Our Weekend of Moving
This weekend was a whirlwind of moving craziness. Most of the stuff in our apartment is gone, so it’s all echo-y and weird. We’re still here for the rest of this week, though, so we just need to make more trips to the new house and do some hardcore cleaning. Since I was sick late…
How Long Does It Take to Get Out of Shape After Being Sick
Exactly a week ago I posted on ways to prevent and get rid of colds, and then this past Wednesday BOOM the flu hit me. Oy vey. This got me thinking. The last time I had the flu, I was training for my marathon. It was a month before the race, and I was completely…
My Favorite Things + Get Fired Up Treadmill Workout

My Favorite Things
Since Monday’s post was strictly dedicated to roasted asparagus, let’s talk Halloween. I was excited to have TWO different costumes for the day – one for work, one for the evening.
