Last night, Katelyn and I went to Lori’s Natural Foods in Henrietta to listen to the amazingly awesome Brendan Brazier talk about Stress and Food. We sat in the front row, and I could have totally reached out and touched Brendan’s feet. Not that I would have. I first read Brendan’s first book a few …
Have I mentioned that I love working from home? Doing this has been my goal for quite a while, and I’m totally basking in it right now. I’m also sweating because it’s really hot in NY…and that’s totally fine with me! I’ve readjusted back to reality from vacation, and I’ve even got my vacay laundry …

At the risk of sounding a little (or a lot) repetitive…I’ve been really busy. I had to teach a two-hour lecture yesterday about sexual and reproductive health to a bunch of 20 year-olds. I’ll be honest with you, it was not high on my list of things I wanted to do…ever. In general, I over-prepare …
Katelyn came over yesterday, and we intended to go to the gym. But it didn’t happen. We ate and drank instead. The first thing we tried was totally disgusting. I’m not sure who would drink this—it tasted like the liquid out of a jar of fermented/cultured beets. The label says, “Like Kombucha? Try This!” Please, …

I’m really busy, which has really pushed me to decide not to be this busy in the future, even if it means I will have to have a budget in the grocery store. Did I just say that? It’s not true—I will always work more if it means I can buy whatever I want in …
I’ve been super busy for the last several days (in a good way). Eight weeks till summer break! 🙂 I think it’s possible I might change the world with these veggie-roons. They’re really amazing. I was surprised at how great they really were—not too sweet, not too bitter. The chocolate totally balanced the carrot perfectly. …
A common thread among human beings (not everyone, but many of us) is that we have a hard time doing things on our To Do Lists. Joe is not one of these people. He wakes up in the morning, assesses what needs to be done, and then he just does it. He doesn’t think twice …

I never did a wrap-up post for round one of my personal improvement plan (PIP), but it did go well. I felt better, looked better, and everything was going well. I wasn’t actually sure when I’d end it, but it happened rather unexpectedly (and I’m taking full responsibility for it!). One day, when a temptation …

When you live in Upstate NY, where it snows at the end of March…and where the sun has trouble making an appearance regularly…you have to learn to make your own sunshine. I’m the first to admit that I’m a sucker for something unique and pretty. There’s no way when I saw these organic rainbow carrots …
