The Christmas/Birthday Wishlist
I don't want a lot for Christmas. However, because my birthday falls just after Christmas day and just before New Years, if I ask for nothing I run the risk of missing out. For most of my life, I've received Christmas/Birthday gifts which comes with the territory when...
Soul Refresh
A few weeks ago, I saw a post on Instagram from Refresh Summit promoting one last spot. On a whim, I responded. I've been following Bobbi's blog for years and I've wanted to go to a conference like Refresh for some time. After some reflection time, I registered. The...
Hilly Weekend Run
Happy Monday! I had a great weekend with my family. On Saturday, we all did the Serenbe Hill Country 5k together. A photo posted by thegreatdanaj (@thegreatdanaj) on Nov 11, 2014 at 7:51am PST I cannot lie, the hills were tough. My legs are still sore. I...
Monday Musings
Sorry for the unintended hiatus! Life got the best of me for a bit. I'm back on schedule now. I am still doing well with making all of my own meals during the week. I've been having fun trying out new recipes. I'm also back on my workout schedule. Over the past few...
Review – Garden of Life Kind Organics Women’s Once Daily
I started taking a new multivitamin after coming home from BlogHer in July. It's the Kind Organics Women's Once Daily created by Garden of Life. I've read about Alicia Silverstone's Kind Diet in the past. In fact, I have her book The Kind Diet. I was excited to test...
On My Mind This Week
TGIF! It's been a long week. I'm thankful that the finish line is so close. I don't have big plans for the weekend, and I'm okay with that. This week, I tried turkey meatballs and veggies over Quest Nutrition spinach fettuccine. I found out about Quest...
My New Faves from Olive Garden
Last week, I had the opportunity to try new menu items at Olive Garden. I haven't been there in forever, so I was excited to attend. I'm so glad that I saved room at lunch because we were treated to eleven new menu items. Row 1: Crispy Risotto Bites, Artichoke...
Finally ITP
The week after BlogHer, I moved ITP. (ITP = Inside the Perimeter for non Atlantans ;)) I must admit now, that between FitBloggin', BlogHer everyday life and this move, I took on a little too much in a span of a couple of weeks. But that's life right? Summer has been a...
My First BlogHer
BlogHer 2014 was beyond words. Great stories, great people, fabulous fashion and tons of inspiration. Seriously, I'm so glad that I went! It was my first time in San Jose. What a gorgeous place! On Thursday night, I hit up the Eppa sangria party. It was toasty out but...
Zen at Fitbloggin’14
Last week, prior to the Fitbloggin' conference, I was nervous. I signed up to attend without knowing anyone. I drove to Savannah alone. I didn't know what to expect at all. By Friday morning, my nerves calmed dramatically and I was really enjoying myself. Everyone at...
