Ten [8-mazing] Miles

09.18.2010

Hello Hello Hello! What.a.week! If you couldn’t tell by my minimalist posts this week, I was absorbed by all things school this week. It was a tad crazy, but I managed to make it through to Friday… somehow I always do.  There was little sleep, projects in the library, a 2-hour heart-to-heart phone call with [...]

Achy Breaky Heart

09.12.2010

I guess I used up all of my weekend productivity motivation yesterday because today I had close to none. I rolled outta bed at 8:30am – that’s sleeping in! – and ‘made’ cereal for breakfast… a pathetic Sunday morning meal. Oh, but it was still pretty… and pretty tasty.   Barbara’s Shredded Spoonfuls homemade granola [...]

Fig Friendly

09.11.2010

It was another beautiful day in the neighborhood! I just don’t quite understand how it is already Saturday evening though. Weekends aren’t always three days long because…? To make the most out of my typical two free days, I got up with the early birds and started being productive right away. Banana Coconut Pecan Pancakes [...]

Clean Eating v. College Craziness

09.08.2010

I know fall/winter is upon us when I eat my breakfast before there is enough natural light for a decent photograph of my cereal. This saddens me. See the tears? I’m going to have to learn a few tricks to  successful indoor photography sans sunlight since no one – me especially! – likes a blurry, [...]

Live. Laugh. Eat.

09.07.2010

Those three words are not only the name of Miss Allie’s A-mazing blog, but they also describe my Labor Day weekend in all of their simplicity. As you can tell, I unplugged for the weekend and enjoyed the company of family – eating, laughing, living. Friday After a beautiful drive through the vineyards Friday afternoon [...]
