1. I mentioned the Good Pop Popsicles in my ‘currently’-post this month, because I had a coupon for a free box at my local Safeway. As you can see, the pops made it onto my favorites list this month, because they’re really tasty and I want to try all the flavors now. 2. I heard about Trader Joe’s…
I’m trying something new here this week by linking up with Erika, Patty and Marcia for Tuesdays on the Run, a blog linkup where you share running related posts or your thoughts on a specific weekly topic. Since I am fairly new to race running, it’s difficult for me to answer the question how often…
I know, I am not the only Trader Joe’s enthusiast out there and I don’t know about you, but I am always thrilled when other people write about and recommend (new) items from Trader Joe’s that I might or might not have heard about or had the chance to try. For that reason, I also…
My friend Lisa wrote a cool post sharing her personal quirks with us and I thought it was so fun to learn about her own personal idiosyncrasies. I am convinced, all of us have little quirks, personal preferences, and OCD tendencies and I thought I’d share mine today. Here we go: + I can’t sleep…
drinking Teeccino Herbal Coffee. I was very hesitant to try this (I love my coffee!), but they were handing these out at our local Co-op and let’s just say: I’m intrigued. Very. Give this a try and tell me what you think. I was honestly very pleasantly surprised and it’s a nice non-caffeine afternoon treat….
This photo series of ‘genetic portraits’ (merged photos of two family members) is amazing. This made me LOL, because I definitely had this discussion with people before. Do or don’t: two duvets on one bed (note: in Germany, we have two). Top 10 science-based health benefits of running. There you have it. “Moderation” is…
By now, everybody must have heard about the mass shooting that occurred at a gay night club in Orlando over the weekend (or you must be living under a rock). These things are happening way too frequently now and at first, I debated if I really wanted to post about it or not, because honestly, I…
Eek. I got a reminder in the mail this weekend that my first half-marathon is ONLY 48 days away. This might be a good time to tell you how I feel about that and how my training is going. I am a little past the halfway mark of my training plan so far and I…
Home is where the Dom is… Do you ever watch “Anthony Bourdain: Parts Unknown”? I love that show. It’s so interesting and Anthony Bourdain is just a fabulous guide taking us to all different kind of places around the world. I love the way he is able to talk to and find common ground with…
And just like that, it’s June. We’ve almost reached the half-way point of 2016. Can you believe it? This month is going to be pretty low-key for me overall (as far as I can tell). + I will continue building up my running mileage as part of my half-marathon training (and hoping for the temperatures…
