The World is My Oyster

Hello there   Can you guess what I did this morning??  I ran! After 2 months of not being able to run (due to torn ligament fibers in my knee), I can finally run. Allow me to start from the beginning:  Jason and I have been hiking an awful lot these past few weekends, me-without [...]

My Hot Vinyasa Cherry…

Zing! Anyone want to guess how many cups of coffee I’ve had this morning? Three. Last night, I had one of the most awesome body experiences of my life (and no, not that type of experience. Get your mind outta the gutter people!) Whit invited me to a hot (literally) vinyasa class at Y2 Yoga, for [...]

Why Being Healthy Matters

It’s not easy to tell people that I am in school to be a dietician. And most of the time when I do tell them, they start confessing their downfalls to me. They make me the priest, and they are the confessors, bearing their souls in repent. I hear a whole year of food history, and about [...]

Stacey Runs the States

*Back to school, back to school..to prove to dad that I am not a fool* [Please tell me there are others out there that quote idiotic Adam Sandler movies] Today was my first day back to school! It’s been over year since I’ve had a class that required me to be on campus at a [...]

Giveaway! Giveaway! Giveaway!

A couple of weeks ago the wonderful folks at www.csnstores.com contacted me and asked if I would be interested in a giveaway. After looking at their (many, many!) websites, I said [...]

Vegan Day: Epic Fail

My trial day as a vegan started out easily enough. I woke this morning extra, super early because I had an interview at the YMCA for my internship starting next week. I walked into the kitchen and started a pot of coffee. Ooooh, coffee! That’s easy..I drink it black…Easy Vegan Decision #1. My mind starts [...]

Hello, New Me

I’m back! I kinda didn’t want to be back, but I missed my doggie too much to stay gone any longer. We had tons of fun out in the ol’ country…surrounded by nothing but trees, abandoned barns and tons and tons of hiking trails! It felt more like home to me than anywhere else I’ve ever [...]

Charlotte Criterium 2010

Top o’ the mornin’ to ya! Actually, that’s a bit more cheerful than I am at the moment. Let’s try it again: Mornin’. <—She says with a grumph. Sleep has not been kind to me, but I shall not let it ruin my day, or this post for that matter! I still had a majorly exhausting fun [...]

Sisters Are Good For….

..sharing homemade lemon biscotti with… …sharing their lemon ‘something-a-ma-jig’  shots with…(p.s. can’t remember the name of the drink because it was very fancy and came all the way from Italy! Tasted JUST like a lemon starburst…yum yum) …telling their younger sister how to start a herb garden, and be successful at it!…   Parsley   …producing [...]

Ah-HA!

Hello there I found out what is wrong with my leg…finally. It seems I have torn muscle fibers in the medial collateral ligament of the right part of my knee. Twisting and turning your foot in certain ways for an extended period of time can cause the muscle fibers to tear…and to me, it makes [...]
