This afternoon, I was in deep thought looking out our back window when I noticed this scene… A spiderweb of trees in our backyard! It was amazing and kind of creepy all at the same time. Earlier in the day, I went for a cold run for which I had to bundle up in layer [...]

Bad, Bad, Yogurt

Evening Chicas! I had an awesome run this morning, although it was cold, cold, COLD! I went from running in 55 degree weather to 35 degree weather this morning!

Pinkberry on the Pacific

Hey there!  I’m writing to you from sunny San Diego – well actually, it’s dark now, but it was definitely sunny earlier! I arrived in San Diego about 11 AM local time. But before I get into that, let’s start from the day’s beginning… Very early this morning I had a dream that I woke [...]
