I was the snack queen today. Queen o’ snacking. Hummus and crackers; a popsicle; a spoonful of peanut butter; a handful of nuts. I practically snacked away my lunch appetite (but it returned around 3:00 with a vengeance). Finally, I focused and make two delicious real meals. As much as I love to snack, sit-down [...]

I mentioned a few weeks back that I’m beginning to build an imaginary race calendar for the fall – it’s pretty realistic but still imaginary because who knows how much running I’ll do with a young baby! But it’s still fun to envision doing this or that race, to dream about tackling a new course, [...]
Happy Monday! I wish I had an overhead shot of my bed this morning. The Husband and I were sleeping head-to-toe (because of this problem), James and I were spooning but he was upside down so I was snuggled up to his tail, and Maggie was jammed in between the Husband’s legs (how does she [...]
So proud of DadHTP – also known as my swimming buddy extraordinaire – and I for making it to the pool today. Reward popsicles for everyone! In all seriousness, we did actually high-five each other at the pool. I don’t think either of us believed we’d actually make it. I’ve been exhausted; he’s been exhausted. [...]

We ended up shutting the festival down, and the women running the Cabot cheese booth gave us two HUGE two-pound blocks of the most [...]
I would invite you over for breakfast but it appears that all the seats on the patio are taken… Hey, hey. It’s a normal Saturday over here. These days, a normal Saturday includes a total hormonal meltdown in bed at 7:00 AM because my damn pregnancy-induced insomnia and generally physical uncomfortable-ness kept me up all [...]
Hey, hey. It’s June 1. It’s my baby’s birth month! Pretty exciting stuff. Anyway, here are the best posts from Healthy Tipping Point for the month of May. Biggest Moment: Not a post per say, but an ENTIRE BOOK! The Healthy Tipping Point book was released this month. You can read a summary of [...]
There are many advantages to being married to a British man. He has a cool accent. He says funny things like, “Please pop the bonnet of the car†and “Do you want to go on holiday this summer?†You always have a good excuse to visit London. Real football only lasts 90 minutes, not four [...]
