Half Marathon training may be kicking my butt. (however, marathon training is also awesome at combating the effects of this.) Ironically, it’s not the long runs that are getting me. I feel awesome when I get up, eat some breakfast, then go for a long run. Even if I paint for 6 hours after I [...]

Like so many other East Coast bloggers, I’ve fallen victim to West Coast envy. What is West Coast envy? Well, it’s a special kind of produce envy, where after a long, cold, and extremely snowy winter I surf my favorite West Coast food blogs, downright green with envy at the beautiful local produce they are [...]

What do you do with a ripe banana early in the morning? That was the question I faced on the first day of spring as I spied these two winter fruit stragglers hanging out in our fruit bowl. Yes, in our house bananas are winter only fruit, as in, fruit you buy when nothing else [...]
