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 [...]

Hello, Cupcake!

Lunch was a turkey sandwich that Jared kindly prepared while I was doing my makeup. My meeting did NOT go well.  Boooo to the Woods School.  But at least a few candy pumpkins made me feel better. I crunched on some baby carrots. I had to install Office 2007 so while my computer was hard [...]

Nashoba Valley Winery

Jared and I walked Miles over to the dog park and tried to encourage him to make some new friends.  Things spiraled downhill when he started growling and showing his teeth at every dog that came near him.  So embarrassing!  We left after 10 minutes, making sure to apologize to the other dog owners for [...]

Admitting is the first step to recovery.  But do I really wanna get better?  Haha. I swear these spa treatments that I’ve been blogging about a rare treat!  Jared bought the 4-pack of treatments at a mega discounted price.  Once these run out, I’m back to at-home facials and minimal pampering. I finally tried the [...]

New School Pasta Sauce

I went to the gym and used the Elliptical for 20 minutes.  I made sure to make the most of my short cardio session by pedaling hard and keeping my heart rate up.  Next I alternated between holding a plank for 1 minute and doing 10 superman lifts.  After stretching, I took some time out [...]

Overnighter

When I got home from work, there was a letter addressed to me sitting in the mail slot.  Nasoya sent some coupons to me so I can sample more of their products.  Hmm, I’m going to go online and check out what to buy when I get groceries later tonight. I was in a down [...]

Tough Training

I had some unpictured snacks before heading to the Back Bay HealthWorks for my 2nd training session.  (Still part of the free training sessions you get when you sign up) I went in expecting another easy session, focusing on stretching and explanations.  Instead I got my ass kicked!  My trainer Ian made me start off [...]

Biggest Loser

I NEEDED a quick snack before I headed out to the Madewell Fall Denim Tour. A bowl of Wheat Thins did the trick and I was out the door. After the event I met Jared at Trader Joe’s for a quick grocery shopping. We had a lot leftover from our big trip to Shaws last [...]

What’s Wrong with this Picture?

Raisin bran for breakfast because I was tired, lacking coffee, and not in the mood to create anything good. I promise I’ll eat something fun tomorrow! If my dog Miles had a blog, he’d post this picture twice a day. Poor Miles eats 1 cup of Purina kibbles every morning and evening. He gets treats [...]

Hob Nob

We went to Anchovies for dinner and I made sure to order a glass of Malbec while we waited for our table. As soon as we sat, the guys decided they wanted a bottle of Hob Nob. Equally delicious! I ordered the chicken and artichoke salad with the pesto dressing on the side. It was [...]
