Usually, fall is the time I start going into hibernation mode. By this, I mean that I start craving tons of carbs, bundling up in every blanket I can find, parking myself on my couch and refusing to move until spring. Yes, I’m probably more than part bear. Or cat. Not this year. In …
I don’t get many of these anymore. I slept late, had my shake for breakfast (for those who don’t know, I’m doing the Herbalife program right now, and it’s FABULOUS), and already folded a load of laundry while watching last night’s Ghost Adventures. Now, I’ve got a cup of tea, because it’s getting cool again, and …
I know, it’s still a long way until spring, but seriously, I feel like I’m trapped in George RR Martin’s Game of Thrones world. Between the depression and the SAD and the god-awful snow (seriously, there’s been like 60 inches of snow in the past month!), I feel like I’m smothered in cotton. So what …
I love summer. I love getting out in the sun, swimming, picking berries, going to farmer’s markets, reading on the beach, camping, summer events…. summer is my favorite time of year. It’s what I look forward to all year. I do NOT want to spend my summer on crutches with this knee of mine. …
To celebrate, I got up early and christened my new swimsuit at the Y. It felt SO good to be swimming, in a swimsuit that FIT and didn’t feel like I was going to have a wardrobe malfunction if I breathed wrong. (I really needed a new swimsuit, let me tell you.) And it felt …
I love bread. No, trust me, you don’t understand – I REALLY LOVE BREAD. And now I’m gluten-free. Sadness. Except that I finally found a bread recipe that works and tastes like BREAD. So here it is. The original recipe came from Food.com and was done by GlutenFreeGirl in 2006 – I’m giving …
Cons screw me up – even when I go in trying to be healthy, I always seem to end up sick. Bleah. This last week has been super busy as well, so it’s no wonder I ended up with con-crud and all sorts of headaches. That’s why I went to bed early last night, with …
and it’s official – I have a cold. Gluten does not cause green snot to come out of my nose. *sigh* Just what I needed before Capclave. I’m alternating tea and juice and hoping to kill it dead. Bah. I hate having a depressed immune system. However!!! I resisted Panera this morning! (Managers brought …
My nephew got married this weeked. Yay, weddings! Except for the fact that most weddings are full of gluten, and I am finding that I am really, really weak when it comes to gluten. This is no one else’s fault but mine. I had rolls and wedding cake and cookies…and I still feel crappy this …
