How Do I love Wine…Let me count the ways…

{Read More...}

The day after the snow storm we all gathered in my apartment, eating cheese and crackers while debating loudly over just about anything. I opened a bottle of Santa Ema Reserve, slithered back into the recliner, and took a sip. Simply de.li.cious. But just how would I describe this wine if someone asked me? I [...]

It’s Been a While

Writing is a bit like exercise — once you fall out of the habit, it’s a bitch to get back into. And I haven’t written anything for a while.  The longest stretch ever, actually.  I wish I could say I’ve been off searching for my higher self, or exercising like a maniac so I now [...]

Because We Could All Use More Money!

{Read More...}

It may shock you to hear me say this, but working mostly as part-time personal trainer and part-time graphic designer is not going to make me rich. So after much research, I did find a few ways in which we, as in me and you can put dinner on the table. I am going to [...]

Men and Meat

They say that the way to man’s heart is through his stomach.

Ha.

They, whoever “they” are, have clearly never taken an anatomy class because there is no connection between the stomach and heart what.so.ever. None. I may have dropped out of college after a year, but I know that the stomach is not connected to the heart. They are wrong. They probably went to Devry Medical School.

But I’ve noticed something about men, with my love monkey and with my best friend (a boy), that there are two things, especially when they are combined, that get men whipped into a heated frenzy.

Lately…

Lately I have been experiencing a weird mid-life crisis. I can’t really call it a mid-life crisis, unless I plan to keel over at the age of 50. Don’t do the math. Division is too hard! Don’t do it! Fine. So I’m not really 25 years old. *sigh* Which is exactly the point, isn’t it?!?! [...]

St Lucia – I’m depressed

And so I go digging, not the kind of digging where I bury my face in the sand and hope the sadness passes, but the kind where I actively and frantically go digging through my computer to find evidence of better times. St. Lucia, where the only ugly thing is….? The people! They all tried [...]

Change Your Body in Six Weeks. Ha!

{Read More...}

Quiz time! How long does it takes to see significant physical changes through diet and exercise? No, not two weeks, or three. Or five. There is lots of equipment, gadgets, programs, gyms and trainers out there who promise that in six or eight short weeks, you too can remake your body completely. I mean, just [...]

Just Eat Smart

{Read More...}

I don’t mind discussing diets, but I absolutely abhor it when people talk to me about their diets as though one size fits all. “You know I’m a diet. Today was asparagus, I ate asparagus for every meal.” Or, “I’m on the lemonade diet. I drank lemonade all day.” Ridiculous yes, but I’m open minded [...]
