Very happy the weekend is here and we’re not getting short-changed an hour for this one! After a draining week, I have a long list of things I want to catch up on today from finally doing my hair roots, garden work, laundry, and updating music play lists. I did finally make it to Costco [...]

Hooray for tomorrow being Friday! It’s another freezing week here and I just had a brisk 3.3 mile run in 30 degree weather, great motivation to run faster!

Red Pepper Soup

I had a sad thing happen, I cut open a giant spaghetti squash for dinner, but found the insides rotten. Such a waste, I hate that! Oh well, have to try another raw soup tonight. I decided to try one using up one of the red peppers sitting in my fridge and ended up modifying [...]
