#1 – This man: AKA my husband. Who does things like have a pizza delivered to our house on a Friday night, because Friday nights are our pizza nights and this particular night I was home alone after being sick and exhausted all week while he was out at a concert in Orlando for his…

LJ & Blogs: Awkward BFFs
I have a confession. Blogging and I have an awkward relationship right now. I’ve tried all sorts of blogging and I think that’s led me to currently feeling like I don’t really know “how to blog”. When I first started blogging nearly three years ago, I blogged about all sorts of things – my daily…
Back to School Reflections
Ready or not, it’s time to go back to school! Anyone else out there headed back to the ol’ university today? Kids being sent off to school? It’s that time of the year! Incidentally, this time of year always leaves me full of reflections, on my past, my present, and my goals for my future….
Weekend Lessons
When the power goes out and you live in a gated parking complex, it means you can’t get in or out. Hello Yahtzee by candlelight! Be proud to rock your inner nerd (on a back to school notebook spotted in Target – love it!) Styles always…
Summer 2011
This ol’ blog has certainly been quiet this summer, hasn’t it? It’s definitely been a few months of work hard, play hard. On the work hard front, I took Anatomy & Physiology 2 (which looks like I finished with about a 104%!), I worked over full time hours between two part time jobs, and I’ve…
Fruititarian
So, I think I’m turning into a fruititarian. For the life of me this summer, I cannot seem to get enough fruit! I’m currently sitting on my couch, noshing on some fresh pineapple and a nectarine. (For the record? Canned pineapple is a joke.) It all started about a month ago when I was in…
(Sweet) Potato Salad
When I think of the summertime, I think of fun family events like Memorial Day, the Fourth of July, and my birthday. I look back and reminisce of family barbeques. The entree of choice would sometimes change. Anything from burgers, hot dogs, kabobs, or chicken breasts. Everything always grilled, of course, this is the summertime!…
Miscellaneous Mini Meals
Hey friends! Great news – in addition to the glycemic index post, I now have two new recipes for you, too! I promise those will be the next three posts. But first, I wanted to share a few low glycemic index mini meals lately: hardboiled eggs have made great snacks (and bran chex with unsweetened…
Thieving Indian Grit Park
Hey yo! Hope y’all had a good weekend – it was pretty bueno over in my neck of the woods. Hot as hades, but good. Few highlights from the weekend: we practiced the art of thievery from Wally World: OK, I promise we didn’t really steal anything, but this cute little patio set we wanted…
Pita Pizza Plate
Afternoon party people! Apparently I’ve been lacking on my picture taking lately, but I assure you, there have been some delectable eats! Monday we had salmon that was seared perfectly and nice and crusty on the outside. (Never mind the fact that olive oil jumped up and second-degree-burn bit me! PSA: Don’t cook dinner in…
