Dinner On the menu: Roasted Chicken & Veggies with Maple Mustard Sauce. I did my own thing and cooked the chicken on the grill and veggies separately in the oven. It [...]

I spent a lot of time away from my desk yesterday and it was awesome. Of course, I’m paying for it today (holy inbox explosion!), but it was totally worth it and a really good day. Workout Chrissy emailed me the other day to tell me about an amazing Groupon deal for Dancing Crow Yoga (10 classes [...]

Good morning! Happy Friday! It’s an exciting day for Mr. Murphy! He’s scheduled for a pug photo shoot later this afternoon, so, of course, he’s super-duper excited, especially since it includes a ride in the car to the (Fenway) park, but he has no idea what to wear for it. It’s his first professional photo shoot. [...]

Anyway, the [...]

Lunch Yesterday’s lunch was reheated Italian “hot plate” from the previous night’s dinner. The leftovers were even better than the original because the veggies had more time to soak up all of the delicious flavors. [...]

I miss her. *sigh*) emailed me a funny comic from The Oatmeal called “My dog: the paradox.” It totally cracked me up, so I decided to blog about some of Murphy’s dog paradoxes. Most of the time, Murphy has doggie ADHD and can’t focus his attention on [...]

You know what makes exercising a lot of fun? PUGS!!! Murphy kept me entertained as I worked out in the backyard yesterday afternoon. The WOD: 100 push-ups + 100 sits-up + 100 air squats for time. As you can see, I had lots of pug motivation to get me through it. I broke the 100 [...]

Did you happen to notice my workouts for the week in this morning’s post? They’re a lot less intense than usual, right? Well, it’s because I’m taking it easy to give my body a little rest and also because I think the intensity of some of my workouts is preventing me from fully healing. Even [...]
