Cheerleading Practice

I snacked on a Clif Mojo Bar.  Mmm, I love these dipped bars in every flavor. It was a sunny day so I dressed for springtime.  Still trying to keep Audrey Hepburn in mind when choosing my outfits. I ran for 20 minutes, changing my speed around while staying in the 7-7.6 mph range.  I [...]

Springtime Makes Me Smile

I didn’t photograph my breakfast or lunch during Day #2 of the conference.  My camera stayed in my bag until I went to Starbucks during a break in the action.  Mmm, an Iced Chai Latte two days in a row! My outfit!  Dressing in lots of warm layers again today so I’d be ready for [...]

Dots and Stripes

I was at a conference all day today so my photography was limited.  I did manage a quick picture of my breakfast: strawberry Stonyfield yogurt, pineapples, a corn muffin, and a glass of orange juice. I didn’t get a shot of lunch.  Bread, salad, some kind of chicken dish…typical conference fair and not overly tasty. [...]

Flowery Friday

My breakfast cereal didn’t keep me full for very long so I reached for some fruit snacks during the mid-morning hours. I had leftover cheese tortellini [...]

Berries Galore

I made a salad with the only leftover piece of BBQ chicken from yesterday’s lunch.  Plus I used greens, carrots, red peppers, grape [...]

Wardrobe Basics

I hate spending a lot of money on clothes that fall quickly out of style. But I also have an aversion to buying “disposable” clothing whose poor quality can’t stand the test of time.  I like to invest money in great pieces of clothing that are meant to last.  Style Bakery just featured an article [...]

Tricks and Treats

Still Thursday… I began my workout with my strength training circuit so I wouldn’t have any excuses to cut it short.  I modified the original plans to fit my mood and to target areas that had been bothering me lately.   For example, due to typical girl bloating, I wanted to do some ab work.  Here [...]
