My wisdom tooth is out, and honestly the whole procedure and recovery has been WAY more mellow than I was afraid it would be. I’m not supposed to run until Monday (boooo) but other than that, things are pretty good. I made a raw kale salad (and a couscous-chickpea [...] It’s Thursday already?! I meant to post yesterday but I’ve been in Wisdom tooth Hell. I had an appointment to get one removed next week (my Spring Break) but yesterday it started hurting my lower jaw like crazy so I called and got my appointment moved to tomorrow, which [...] There’s a reason (actually there are several reasons) why Joy the Baker wrote a cookbook and I didn’t. I decided to play around with her carrot cake recipe (changed the flour, cut back on the sugar a little bit, added extra fruit and carrots and nuts, etc) and it [...] 
I ran TWO DAYS in a row! Without screaming in pain, without making my hip worse, and without going crazy and pushing myself way too hard. I was signed up for a trail race in Pacifica on Saturday morning, and all week I was pretty sure it wasn’t going [...] 
Happy Pi Day! The one day of the year a small part of me wishes I were a math teacher. Actually, I don’t think I ever want to be a math teacher, even today. Science and PE just sound a lot more fun. I wish I had pie for [...]

Remember how I was going to be really smart as I was getting back into running shape? And I’d never increase my mileage or intensity too quickly and I wouldn’t get injured? Weeeelllll, I may have sort have overdone it just a little bit, and my right hip has [...] 
There are certain necessities in life. You need to go to coffee on the weekend. Preferably with a cute baby strapped to you. You need to bring that cute baby to meet someone awesome. Like Joy the Baker! The line may stretch down the block, but it’s worth the [...] 
I pretty much never go to the library while school’s in session. During the average week, I’d rather use my spare time for cooking, running, and hanging with Ellie. BUT there was no work and endless free time last week, so I walked down to the library with her [...] 
I will readily admit, I don’t come up with that many original recipes (It’s really something I should work on). 99% of the time I head into the kitchen with the laptop open to a blog, or a cookbook, or a page torn out of a magazine. But last [...] |
