Row and Run Workout
Last night was taco night! We also celebrated a certain special someone’s 1/2 birthday. The last couple of times I’ve made tacos, I’ve made them the “restaurant way” (browned ground meat in a crispy or soft corn tortilla shell) which isn’t usually how we eat them in our family. My mom, aunt, nanas, everyone all…

Not my cup of “om”
Last week, I took a *bad* yoga class. The asterisks around “bad” exist because all group class experiences are subjective; one person’s train to soul freedom is someone else’s sad trombone.

Vacay mode at home
Now that my Portland recaps are over, it’s back to “real life” blogging for this girl. My little trip was a lot of fun and so very relaxing. It was positively luxurious to be able to get dressed without putting on a one-woman “Twinkle, twinkle” show, ahem, go to the ladies’ room solo, and sleeeeeeeeeeep,…

My version of the Bowl of the Gods
You knows it’s serious when you can’t stop thinking about a smoothie bowl. I don’t even love smoothie bowls all that much. Sure, I like them, and it’s a way to shake up the breakfast routine, but what can be sooooo special about eating your smoothie like a soup? Apparently a lot of things. I’ve…
