Hello again from Boston! I was up and at ‘em early this morning to meet Kate and blog reader Amanda for a run around the Charles River. I was pleased to step outside the hotel and find that it was a wee bit chilly! I am so used to running in 90-100* that this felt [...]

Y’all know that I bought a jar of peanut butter a couple weeks ago to make some Fathers’ Day peanut butter cookies, and I’ve been working through the jar ever since (so I can make more almond butter ). Well as I was using the PB last night, I saw I only had a little [...]

On the bottom is ~3/4 cup of Greek yogurt and Kashi Heart to Heart, of course. Topped with half a sliced banana, three diced strawberries, a handful [...]

I know whenever I open a can of beans that I need to be prepared with more recipes to use them up in the next few days. Never fear! You can see my first “leftover beans” recipe below. First comes breakfast. A green(ish) smoothie with one ripe banana, a handful of frozen strawberries, chocolate almond [...]
