Wanna talk about an amazing coincidence?!?! My brother’s apartment is right in front of a coffee shop called The Cupcake Lab! While the rest of the family was helping Matt move out, I snuck inside the Cupcake Lab for a snack. I ordered a mini Coconut Cupcake and Jared sampled a mini vanilla cupcake.  Mmm!  [...]

Congratulations Matt! You made it through 4 years at Skidmore College.  4 years of classes, hard work, hockey, and fun times with your friends. Warning:  This post isn’t about food, exercise, or healthy living.  It’s more of a Photo Collage to brag about my little bro and his college graduation. I tried to make a [...]

My family arrived in Saratoga Springs on Friday morning to begin celebrating Matt’s college graduation. My parents and grandparents attended his diploma ceremony and sports awards. I didn’t arrive in time for any of the ceremonies, but I did check out my brother’s alumni brick.  Students will be walking over his name for years to [...]

I’ve been fighting with the free wifi at the Best Western in Saratoga Springs, NY since last night. Just let me post, damn it! My brother Matt is graduating from Skidmore College today. Congratulations Matt! Good luck as you begin a new chapter of your life. And good luck with job interviews. I’m crossing my [...]

Last night I was a little bit PMSy. I was mean to Jared.  I decided not to attend the Healthy Living Summit.  Then I bought a ticket to the HLS.  Then I regretted buying the ticket and freaked out. I also decided I didn’t feel like blogging anymore. What?!?!? Oh lovely hormones.  So today I [...]

I grabbed Breakfast on the Go yesterday morning.  I enjoyed an Ice Chai Latte on the drive to work. Plus Perfect Oatmeal.  Though it was slightly less than perfect for me.  Too dry!  If I had checked while I was at Starbucks, I would’ve added a splash of milk.  Unfortunately I didn’t add my toppings [...]

A watched pot never boils.  And maybe a watched seed never grows? After 2 weeks of trying not to pay too much attention to the grass seeds spread in the backyard, I can finally see something sprouting! Maybe I’ll be able to sit on a picnic blanket on my luscious green lawn by the end [...]

Jared worked SO hard to plate last night’s dinner.  I’m so proud of him. He made chicken and butternut squash risotto along with a salad with spinach, cucumbers, carrots, and orange peppers.  Mmm! Moving on to this morning’s breakfast, I had an English muffin with peanut butter and jelly before heading to work.  And to [...]
