I’m in a pickle

Last week I was sitting at a business meeting at a newly re-opened restaurant enjoying a veggie sandwich when I took a bite of what I thought was a dill pickle. My lunch companion noticed that I really didn’t care for a bread and butter pickle cut up to look like a dill pickle. “YUCK!” [...] [...more]

After work last night, I collapsed on the couch watching Thomas the Train (for the millionth time) with my son. I knew I had to get a 5 miles walk in as part of my training for a 10k program. My mind was saying “go for it.” My body “forget about it.” When my husband got home [...] [...more]

Inspired to bake bread

This month, to get back in the blogging spirit, I want to write about those who inspire me. I’ve had this idea for a while in my head and I think just getting it down on paper will help. My husband bought me  a Kitchen Aid mixer for my birthday with the goal to start [...] [...more]
