How would you like some healthy donuts to start your Monday? I mentioned on Thursday that my husband and I are running our next race on June 1st. That’s less than a month away! Because of this, we’ve been trying hard to make sure that we are eating healthy for every meal. We still want [...]

It’s Mother’s Day this weekend! Do you have your menus planned? Or have you hinted yet to your husbands what you want to eat? If you’re still looking for an idea, here is an easy cake that only takes about an hour from the time you start to the time you are slicing pieces to [...]

Congratulations to Karel for winning the Albion Fit Capris! It’s been awhile since I’ve done one of these! It’s not that we haven’t been running, it’s just that at the last couple of races I took one or two pictures at most. Probably because I was so cold that my main goal when I wasn’t [...]

Remember a couple of weeks ago when I tried to persuade you that making English muffin bread was easy? Well, come to find out, making actual English muffins isn’t that hard either! In fact, minus the little extra time it takes to shape the muffins and wait for the short second rise, they are pretty much as [...]

I don’t know about where you live, but strawberries have been on sale a lot around here. This makes me happy because I love strawberries. As a result, we’ve been eating a lot of them! Normally we end up eating all of them plain, because we both like fresh strawberries. However, the last package I [...]

With it still being cold around these parts (it’s currently in the 20′s), we are still drinking a lot of hot tea, coffee, etc. to stay warm. Sometimes when you are wrapped up in a blanket sipping your tea, you want a little something to go with it. Biscotti is a great choice because you [...]
