Lunch

One of my favorite words… Fresh is another. Or Bounce. Lunch. It’s evolution over the years of my life have all been good. Remembering my mom making lunch for me and my brother – grilled cheese and tomato soup in the cold months or pb&j in the warm. Lunch in the college dining hall, where…Continue Reading

44 x 44 – A Healthy Organic Buzz

Most of this post, as indicated below, was written in June 2009 on my defunct personal blog. Now that Michael Pollan has appeared on Oprah and Food Inc. was highly recommended for the home DVD library, I’m hopeful that this organic buzz will become an epidemic.

44 x 44 – Setbacks

**it happens… It’s been almost a month that I’ve been focused on this goal. I expected the setbacks to come later, but life sometimes has its own agenda. The key is I’m able to point to exactly why I didn’t lose any poundage this past week: weekend away with wine & friends, wine brain making…Continue Reading

Goodbye Lovely Weekend, Hello Monday

I spent the weekend in Boston with two of my best friends, attending the annual Wine Expo. It’s always great to see them.

44 x 44

What is the significance of 44? Barack Obama is our 44th president. Hank Aaron was the first to wear the number 44. And me? I’m going to try and lose 44lbs. by my 44th birthday. I’ve always been up and down with weight. Back and forth. Round and round. But I had arrived at a…Continue Reading

Warmth

I’ve read on the interwebs that some citizens are choosing one word for 2010. One word? That seemed impossible. I didn’t think I could pick just one word. It’s why I’ve never gotten a tattoo — what would I pick? But as with most things, once you take the pressure off, an answer will present…Continue Reading

Out with the Old

Hello out there! Seems like it’s been awhile… how do you like the new look? I’m pretty happy with how it turned out. Still tweaking here and there, but have begun the big renovation of the main site. Thank you to all that have supported me and my business in one way or another this…Continue Reading
