[Continue reading...]With my new goal to focus more attention on this blog, I am realizing that the benefit of such a task is the constant searching for topics to write about.

Last night my dinner with friends brought us to Chinatown in Boston. We tried very hard to have “authentic” Chinese food and not the Americanized version. I am partial to the American version of Chinese food. I like my lo mein, fried rice and chicken fingers. What can I say, I’m a purist. But one […]

Well, today I laced up my sneakers and hit the ground running (sadly, I think I’ve used that pun before…eesh!) and I am feeling on top of […]
[Continue reading...]Three blog posts in one day! Hopefully this is a sign of consistency to come! I didn’t run yesterday or today and am feeling it! Not physically, actually my heel has been hurting a little so it feels good to give it a little rest, but emotionally and psychologically. It’s amazing how running has turned […]
[Continue reading...]I know, I know..two posts in a row, no pictures. I’m sorry! I’m just not in a tech-y mood. I don’t feel like uploading pictures, formatting the post so that it looks “just right.” I’m in a pull the covers over your head and pray for a good chick flick on tv because there is […]

I am a product junkie. I am always looking for the “miracle” product that is going to give me Gisele Bundchen’s complexion. I am learning, slowly but surely, that there really is no such thing as a miracle product and what works for one person, may not work for another. I have become a fan […]
