Steamy Oats and Holiday Mints

Papers. Does anyone else have trouble getting them started? Now that midterms are over I have several paper due dates looming in the next few weeks and I find the hardest part is getting them started. I never know where to begin! So I put them off. That certainly doesn’t help. I’m working on trying [...]

Spring in November and Danger Squash Slicing

Sunday
Sunday was gorgeous. I think Spring is making a brief reappearance. It was basically warm enough to wear t-shirts outside. And last week there was brief snow. What’s going on Weather? I’m not complaining though, I’ll take warmth over snow any day. I’m not looking forward to winter… brrrrr.
I started the morning off the [...]

Body Woes and Sweet Treats

Reasons I have not written lately:
1. School. I don’t know so many of you juggle regular posting on top of school work. Maybe my time management skills need some refinement.
2. My Halloween was lame and I didn’t want to talk about it. Therefore I’ve kind of avoided the window where that was the hot [...]

Pasta Attacks and Weetabix Family Fun

One word for today: BLAH.
I spent almost the entirety of it on my bum, laptop and textbooks glued to each side of me, scanning page after page of blurring words in attempts to be somewhat caught up with the chapters and chapters of readings I should be done by now. I’m not a fan of [...]

Luster Lacking

Oh goodness me, it seems I’ve forgotten how to update.
Problem 1 – I’m still dealing with computer stuff so a chunk of the time I spend sitting at the computer goes to trying to get things in order. It’s kinda painstaking.
Problem 2 – I’m not overly excited to show the things I’ve been [...]

Not Quite Biceps of Steel

Okay before you all think I’m some super bionic woman, allow me to clarify. My 100 pushups are done throughout the course of the day, not all in one go. THAT would be nuts. Although maybe that’s a good goal to strive for… hmm… Ha but seriously, 100 pushups throughout the day, usually 20 at [...]

Just Dance

   Yesterday was another very relaxing aka lazy day for me where I did basically nothing at all. I had two different sets of plans with friends but the first one fell through and the second one I cancelled on (as much as I hate doing that and try to avoid doing it as much [...]

Cold Drinks, Hot Foods

In the midst of my studying (two midterms tomorrow, it’s crack down time!), here’s another quick recap of the past several days of foods:
 
Friday
I was feeling for a smoothie? Haven’t felt for one of those in a while during these cold winter months, but for some reason it was just calling to me. [...]

Singing the Winter Blues

Warning: It’s long and it’s kind of ranty. Skip the picture-less text at the beginning and end for the more fun and vibrant food-related stuff.
First off, I apologize for the absence going on here. Being busy isn’t the best of excuses as I’m sure I could have managed to fit an entry in during all [...]

You Put WHAT In Your Squash?

My week did end up starting out better than my weekend ended up. Mainly because the first song that come on when I got into the car yesterday morning was one of my favourites and whenever it comes on it automatically improves the day. Hey, I’m easily contented. The song was Tegan and Sara [...]
