My Zumba story
After the ZIN Jam session on Saturday, Eric stopped to give us some tips about our classes. He gave some awesome advice -especially the fact that you don’t have to be a Zumba Jammer to host your own Master class- and also told us his family’s Zumba story. While it’s not really the place to…

1/20: Meals and fitness for the week
Happy Sunday! After an insane week, in a house full of sickies, the contrast of a particularly glorious weekend has been delightful. Lots of time spent with my little sidekick, whose hair is officially long for pigtails (can we just take a moment? I can’t even handle it) and goes crazy for green juice. The girl…

the petting zoo adventure of summer ’06
We got lost on the way there, which was easy to do in Fayetteville, NC. We didn’t know our way around very well, and most of the roads seemed to be of the dirt and windy variety. This combo almost always guaranteed that we’d be late for wherever we were heading. This was also a…

Just what the doc ordered + Friday Faves
Sniffle soup all around! (Please note the creeper in the background.) Thank you for all of the get-well wishes. I’m still fighting the good fight. Yesterday we laid low, drank lots of tea, watched some Elmo on Youtube while snuggling, and had chicken, carrot and rice soup for dinner. I figured it would be…

Meals and snacks for new mamas
There’s a common theme in my life right now: so many of my friends are pregnant or very recently had their babies. Does it give me baby fever? Yes. I always thought the octomom was insane, but now I kind of understand it. Does it make me want to cook for them? Yes yes. I…

Day of days
Or a week of weeks? (My “down time” last night was a mug of tea and painting my nails. Business on top, party on the toes) I think the universe cursed me for thinking to myself that I was so happy we made it a year without Liv getting sick. Even though we were at…

Booty burning Walking Workout + the runner’s dilemma
A few fitness tools that can be deceiving: -playground balls (they look nice and whimsical, but can make your thighs feel a fiery fury) -the Stairmaster (it’s easy scoff at the ‘master since you’re moving slowly, but it’s one of the most challenging cardio workouts for me) -kettlebells (before I really knew how to use…

Kale Salad Mountain
Hi friends. I’m glad you liked the Whole Foods pics! It was such a fantastic event with so much fun (I had no idea we’d be feasting the night away and was pleasantly surprised), music, wine/beer and they sent us home with killer swag bags. From bars to natural cleaning supplies, almond butter and a…

Whole-y Wine and Dined
Something legendary landed in Tucson…. it’s a bright, shiny, new Whole Foods! Meg and I were kindly invited to check out a preview night before the store officially opens later this week. After our little tour and taste around, I’m even more excited than I was before. Something that sets this Whole Foods apart from…

12 months
Better late than never, right? And in lieu of the usual 12-month sticker on a onesie ordeal -getting Liv to stay still and smile at the same time is a near-impossible feat- we went to the professionals for this one. It was nice for Tom and myself to focus on dancing around and making crazy…

Protein pancakes for the week
I feel like we ate a very grown-up little kid dinner last night: Maybe the ketchup is what takes it over the edge. My new kale salad obsession (which is a post in itself- see the jalapeño?!), butternut squash with ketchup and chicken sausage. (+ wine while I watched Girls, which was just as quirky,…
