I know I've talked about my new love for podcasts. If you haven't read all about my love of all things podcasting, you can read that here first. Of course, I've added more loves to my list since then. So many, that my app always has hundreds of unplayed podcasts. Normally, this would bother me to the core (hello, unread emails in my inbox), but with podcasts, the fact that...
Sorry I've been a little absent lately..... But I've been a bit preoccupied...... I had babies in my house! Two of them!!! Some of the cutest babies you will ever see! And they're twins! Our good friends Aimee and Chris were down for a quick visit and for Chris to pick up his degree - oh, I mean become a DOCTOR! :) We've been calling him Dr. Chris all week....
I did it... I finished my second half marathon. But not without a fight! This time around was not easy! Not that the first one was a piece of cake, but it felt like it compared to this race. I had a really hard time. There were a lot of factors going against me this time, including the fact that I had gotten the flu just 3 weeks before race...
There's something about spring that makes you want fresh fruit! More than any other time, you just want to eat fresh fruit with everything. Obviously, it's a good season for strawberries and peaches, blackberries and raspberries. But what about fall when apples are in season? Or winter when oranges are? Don't get me wrong.... those fruits are awesome and yummy, but there is nothing like the spring and waiting for...
A Few Random Facts: - I read books at unreasonably ridiculous speed. What I mean is, I will usually read a book in about a day to a day and a half. I don't want to do anything else but read the book. - My new iPhone has taken such ridiculous reading to new levels. I can read everywhere: the grocery store, the bathroom, red lights (I've NEVER done that....)...
My mom went home... boo!We had such a great visit though! I'll definitely post some pictures soon. We did a LOT of stuff in 2 1/2 weeks. We packed it all in. She has been out to see me before, so she's done a lot of the normal touristy stuff, so this time we did more unique things. We hiked in half moon bay, spent the weekend being girly in...
So, I've been a little absent lately from the blogosphere.Life's been crazy! I have about 120 unready blogs in my reader! I went to Texas... and ate a whole lot of good food! That's definitely not the reason I went to Texas, but it was a nice benefit. Ten of us from Southbay Church staff went to Texas to go to the C3 conference at Fellowship Church. What an amazing...
So, it's Day 16 of 21 of our Daniel Fast. I can hold out from sweets for a while, but SIXTEEN DAYS!!! That's asking a lot! Around Day 14, I was seriously craving some sugar. Everyone who's an expert in sugar detox says your body will decrease cravings for sugar after a few days, well mine increased! :) It might just be the comfort of something sweet and yummy after...
As the New Year approaches, I always get so tired of the binging. Man, all the Christmas cookies, sweets, desserts, and rich foods get to ya, and you start to want to try eating better. But not good enough that you want to give up desserts. At least not yet, that comes after January 6, since cake is a must on your birthday! :) This one lets you feel better...
