Happy Halloween! As I write this post, I'm wrapped in the blissful warmth of a Snuggie. Yes, "The Blanket That Has Sleeves." Why? Read on, my friends.
One of the girls in my new ultra-running group had a Halloween party last night. At first I wasn't sure if I'd go since I've really just met these [...]
Happy Sweet-Tooth Friday! It's Christine here with your healthy dessert recipe of the week. With all the sugary Halloween candy going around, I thought it would be nice to explore an alternative sweetener like stevia!
Is stevia safe?
After a not-so-great first experience with stevia and pumpkin, I vowed to do some more research on stevia to [...]
Hey no-meaties, I thought I'd give you a little change of pace today with a mid-week guest post. Rachel writes the blog Shedding It and Getting It, and she has a fantastic, energetic attitude toward fitness and body image. She's training for the Disney Marathon in January, and she just finished her first half. Here [...]
Ok, remember when I was interviewed a few weeks ago? Well, that interview was part of the column The Extreme Self, which is part of True/Slant, an "original content news network."

It's official — I'm hooked on trail running.

Hi everybody, it's Christine here with a special edition of Sweet-Tooth Friday. Today we're going to look at the flipside of the baking world and make our own bread.
Don't panic though — in this foolproof recipe there's no yeast, no kneading, and no lengthy rising times. And I promise, this flatbread recipe will bring just [...]
Ladies and gentleman, it's a sad day in NMA world.
Last night, for the first time ever, my wife spit out the food I made for her. I don't remember her exact words, but it was something to the extent of "If I swallow that, I'll puke."
The food in question was a piece of lightly-seared tofu, [...]
On Monday, Erin and I celebrated our second wedding anniversary!
I'd love to tell you that the reason there was no blog post yesterday is because we snuck off for a spontaneous mid-week getaway to a bed and breakfast to pamper ourselves and celebrate. The reality is that there was a server issue that kept the [...]
