#SPBoxSwap Reveal

#SPBoxSwap Reveal

I participated in the Sweet Progress Box Swap hosted by Ashley and Dean for the first time this month. I love the kind of swaps that result in putting something in the mail for someone to brighten their day. Anyway, so the #SPBoxSwap. We were paired with our partners earlier this month and after emailing…

October Favorites

1. Someone recommended the St.Ives Timeless Moisturizer for sensitive skin somewhere and I bought it on Amazon, because I was running out and needed a new one anyway. I love the texture and smell of this and it has really good reviews. 2. I really love working with Patons Grace Mercerized Cotton yarn, especially for my…

Currently | October

loving the current fall weather. It’s still pretty warm during the day, but the evenings and mornings are cooler and we haven’t used the AC much anymore, but also haven’t needed the heater. I love this time of year for running and walks and not the least because our energy bill is lower, ha! eating…

Recap | 2017 Napa Half Marathon

A month ago, I ran the Napa half marathon with my cousin B + his girlfriend  M. We signed up on a whim. I hadn’t really planned to run another half marathon after my half in SF earlier this summer, but I had dared my cousin (and his girlfriend!) to run a race with me,…

Apple Hill + a birthday

We can’t go through a fall season here in CA without a trip to Apple Hill. Everybody knows that. Last year was special because I got to spend a day there with my Mom. Just me and her. I never get that anymore. This year, we decided to make the trip for J’s birthday. Ok, well,…

Thinking Out Loud #9

Another Thursday, another opportunity to Think Out Loud. It’s my go-to excuse of a real post these days, but then again, these posts are kind of fun and keep you in the loop and I actually enjoy them on other people’s blogs, so I assume, you do, too?! + Yep, I still had no time…

October Link Love

You might – or might not – have noticed that I completely skipped my September Link Love post. It was due to my travel and general “absence” from the blogosphere these last few weeks, so I apologize, but here’s my list of the best links I found in the last few weeks. Around the Interwebs…

Friday Five | Things that make you go hmmm…

Friday Five | Things that make you go hmmm…

There are definitely a few “things that make me go hmmm…” when it comes to running and fitness in general, don’t you agree? 1. How to prevent toe blisters I’ve asked for some advice on Instagram yesterday but didn’t get a lot of responses, so I am asking here again: what’s your best advice to…

I am just coming off a three day weekend and have not managed to blog. So there is that. At least, I can try and throw a little update together. You’d like that, right?. + I had planned to publish the first road trip recap post this week, but I think this will have to wait…

Road Tripping

Road Tripping

As you already know, because I couldn’t shut up about it, I went on an epic road trip with my cousin and his girlfriend in September. They were here for a total of three weeks, but unfortunately – as I previously lamented –  I couldn’t take the complete time off due to limited vacation time….
