You’ll never believe my latest obsession

February 24, 2016

McDonalds! Yes, you read that correctly. This exercise and healthy eating obsessed person has come to love McDonalds. Ever since there has a been a McDonalds in my home town, I vowed never to set foot in it. After all, this company is the original creator of fast food. Can we say poison and obesity? […]

The joy of tea

February 17, 2016

I love caffeine. When one gets up at 4 am (!) to work out, one needs something more than just a will to get moving. I am getting more and more serious about healthy eating too, but even when I did the Ultimate Yogi 108 Day Challenge, I couldn’t give up caffeine. Come to think […]

More snow

February 10, 2016

Nothing much to say this week, since we just had two big snowstorms. The aftermath sure was pretty. Sunset over trees after snowstorm #1: Our snowy street after snowstorm #2: Pretty backyard scene with the pine tree and snow covered rose bush in front of it:

It just takes a little bit

February 3, 2016

So I woke up this morning, feeling tired and little bit under the weather. The thought of exercise was the last thing on my mind. But, a little bit of guilt took over. So I decided to pull out a Leslie Sansone Walking DVD to do. This is an easy walking workout and it only […]

Dodging the snow bullet

January 27, 2016

So I live in New England. So we get snow in New England. Last year we broke a record for snowfall; we got something like 108 inches total. There was a blizzard warning for this past weekend and let’s just say us New Englanders were having deja vu about snow. Well, instead of this: We […]

Cookies!

January 20, 2016

So I’m not much of a cook or a baker. Let’s just say that this goes way back, starting when my best friend Lisa and I attempted to make pretzels from a recipe in Seventeen Magazine. The end result? See below. In all fairness, Seventeen Magazine posted a revised recipe the next month, explaining the […]

My latest obsession – Fitbit

January 13, 2016

My favorite Christmas present was a Fitbit. I got the simplest model, the Fitbit Zip, but it suits me just fine. Of course, who am I kidding, eventually I will be getting the fancier models that even track your sleep. Note the cute little smiley face on the display. If the Fitbit is happy, then […]

A walk through my hometown

January 6, 2016

I love to walk and part of my morning routine is a walk through my town. Even when I walk the same route, there is always something new and interesting to see. I thought I would share some of the sights with you. These pictures are taken with my little smartphone. We have a small […]

Christmas vacation week

December 30, 2015

I decided to do something a bit different this year. I decided to view the week between Christmas and New Year’s a real vacation. I used to love this week off when I was in school; you had the time to enjoy the Christmas presents and time to look forward to the New Year. We […]

Wishing you a joyous Christmas

December 23, 2015

In the spirit of Christmas, I thought you would enjoy this gingerbread house. It is a rendition of a local farm stand. Isn’t it cool? There are 8 Santa Clauses gathered in this piece. So far, I was only able to find 4 of them. I think the other 4 are hidden inside. I am […]
