Newer posts →. Why Cody is my favorite. September 28, 2011. Anyone who knows me knows, I have two dogs. A rambunctious puppy I acquired from friends in April (Scoop) and a calm older dog I adopted from the local shelter nearly three years ago (Cody). He has, since coming home with me, lived the life of a king. Here he is as of August, 2011:. And, to prove that I do love Scoop too, here’s the little guy who came to me with precious little more than potty issues:. Despite illness, weekend proves productive.

It’s the little things. Yarny giveaway →. Fall is, most definitely, here. October 21, 2011. I woke up Thursday morning and my apartment was 54-degrees. EEK, it was cold! I’ve been wearing sweatshirts and my SmartWool socks hoping to keep from having the heat on. It’s been cold, cloudy, gloomy…fall! It’s time to hunker down. Get cozy and look toward the long winter ahead AND Christmas (that’s why so many sweaters). How are you celebrating the changed season? Leave a Reply Cancel reply. 3 Rivers: 2 kids.

I’ve always been a Mac. Fall is, most definitely, here →. It’s the little things. October 8, 2011. I had a productive and busy day today. I got up at 7:30 to take the dogs out and decided to stay up so I could turn my slow-roasted pork into chili. Then, I set out to tackle the bushel and a quarter of tomatoes I picked up on Friday. I ran for six hours on Friday going to various farm stands, butchers and the grocery store and got nothing done on Friday. I had quite the list to tackle today. That was funny...

This life I chose really chose me →. Of breakfast food and dog treats. November 9, 2011. As fall has settled in, I’ve been doing a lot of cooking and not just for myself, but for the dogs too (ok, not a lot for the dogs, but some). In the last week I hit upon two huge hits, one for myself for breakfast and one for the dogs for treats. 4 cups of liquid (I used two cups of water and two cups of unsweetened almond milk). An apple or two. 1/4 c dried cranberries. Leave a Reply Cancel reply. 3 Rivers: 2 kids.

This life I chose really chose me. Of knowing Sean O’Malley →. Of holidays and traditions. November 24, 2011. Thanksgiving is nearly over for those of us in the Midwest. Meals have been consumed, good meals, and we’ll all be moving on to whatever tomorrow: Work, shopping, hosting families for Thanksgiving Redux. To hang out at a house teeming with people and eat turkey, dressing, mashed potatoes. When you are doing that with someone else’s family, it is their traditions in which you partake. All that ram...

Why Cody is my favorite. Could I be…NESTING? Oh, if only I’d paid better attention. September 30, 2011. Maybe I can thank my recent interview with celebrity Chef Michael Symon.

We grew up in a Polish Catholic Parish. On Fridays, there was NO meat in our diet (my friend Rebecca. 2 thoughts on “ Oh, if only I’d paid better attention. Ours were alw...

Of breakfast food and dog treats. Of holidays and traditions →. This life I chose really chose me. November 18, 2011. I’ve been reflecting on this an awful lot lately…trying to figure out how to explain the unexplainable to people who just don’t get it, don’t understand why I don’t look for other work when I complain about work. I’m a journalist. I’ve endured abusive editors (in the past), had my life threatened (more than once) and live paycheck to paycheck (barely). I have the fortune (or misfortune, d...

Of holidays and traditions. Of knowing Sean O’Malley. March 26, 2012. Photo from one of Sean's Cardio Coach Facebook pages. Taken when he hiked the Appalachian Trail.
