After lunch yesterday, I packed up my laptop and headed to Starbucks to finish my Health posts for the next couple of weeks. My editor is taking time off for the holidays, so she asked for them ahead of time, which was totally cool with me. Now that they’re all done, I have one less [...]

Yesterday morning, I was in the mood for a two-ingredient pancake, but I wanted something a little different for breakfast, so I whipped up some Pumpkin Spice Peanut Butter to spread on top. Mmm… the Pumpkin Spice Peanut Butter was so good. It tasted more like pumpkin and cinnamon than it [...]

Mother Nature can’t seem to make up her mind with the weather in Seattle today. Rain… shine… rain… shine… the weather is bipolar. When I landed in Seattle, the weather was rainy and gray, but, by the time I got to the hotel, it cleared up and the sun was shining. It looked really nice [...]

Mal was so excited about snowboarding today, he didn’t sleep all that much last night. In fact, he woke up at 5:00 AM and then woke me up to tell me just how excited he was—even though we didn’t need to wake up for another 1.5 hours. Isn’t he sweet? (The whole thing was actually [...]
