The Life and Style of a Mother Runner with Scoliosis
Now it's time to say goodbye to all our company... After six and a half years of happy, joyous, rewarding, unnecessarily stressful, and OCD-inducing employment at the house of mouse down in sunny (and blazing hot) Orlando, Florida, my days as a WDW cast member officially came to an end last weekend. A new company-wide... Continue Reading →
You know what's kinda awesome? Getting a PR in a 5K. Ok, to be fair, the only other 5K I ever ran was six years ago in October in Milwaukee, but nonetheless, it feels pretty damn good to get a PR. I beat my old time by just over two minutes (only took me 6... Continue Reading →
Me? I like to think I'm a pretty simple gal. It doesn't take much to keep me content or make me happy (as much as I may not want to admit it, I think I can attribute that and my sometimes oddly cheerful demeanor to all my years with Disney...but I digress). I went running... Continue Reading →
Well, I think it's official: I'm an adult. Not only did I do my own taxes this weekend (true story!) but I also got HBO. Two very adulty things, if you ask me. I somehow managed to finish my taxes at about the same time I finished my traditional Saturday morning cup o' Alterra Coffee... Continue Reading →
Shrimp with lemon-saffron rice. Sounds yummy, no? Actually, it was the photo that sucked me in. What can I say—I'm a very visual person. I was paging through my January issue of Cooking Light, ripping things out left and right (it was a great issue!) when I came across this recipe filed under 'Super Fast!... Continue Reading →

However, being severely under the weather these last few weeks has afforded me some much unexpected downtime (both a blessing and a... Continue Reading →
I don't recall ever being a foodie (I'm from Wisconsin, after all), but since moving to the East Coast, not only have I become a foodie; I've turned into a bit of a food snob (and I mean that in the most positive, self-proclaiming way). Between being in Wisconsin two weeks ago and New York... Continue Reading →
When: Saturday, October 29, 2011 Where: Princeton, NJ What: ...SNOW And lots of it! Now this is something I would expect to happen in Wisconsin at this time of year, but certainly not in New Jersey. I can recall a handful of not-so-fun memories of going trick-or-treating with a winter jacket and boots on and... Continue Reading →
Remember that time I drove from Princeton to Milwaukee over Labor Day weekend to surprise my parents? True story. Last month (better late than never with blogging, right?), a co-worker and I set out on a spontaneous, epic—and lengthy—journey to the Midwest, with stops in Streetsboro (Ohio...just for the night...thankfully), Kalamazoo, Chicago (where I dropped her off), and...
