Unexpected Stretch

May 3, 2012 by Julie 76 Comments

ready to run

After I published my morning blog post, I gave myself a little time to digest breakfast before leashing Sadie up for a five-mile run. Her typical morning walk morphed into a run since we both needed to sneak in some exercise today. It wasn’t even 8:30 a.m. and the Florida heat was already cookin’. It…

Adding the Cheese

podcast this american life

While out on on my morning walk with Sadie at 7 a.m., I realized I was wishing our walk away. Don’t get me wrong, I love our walks together, but I wanted to get home, write my first blog post of the day and start tackling my to-do list. Sometimes I love the quiet calm…

Savory Salmon Oatmeal Hash

Ryan and I have been all about one-pot dinners this week. Last night we dug into my favorite butternut squash wheat berry mock risotto.
