I stole the idea for this lovely travel alphabet post from Cynthia. I hope you enjoy it! A: Age you went on your first international trip: In the spring of 2003, I went to London with a group from my high school. It was a fabulous trip—several of my good friends were in attendance, and [...]
If you missed part 1 of my favorite things from our recent Oregon/Washington vacation, check them out! We ate a lot on this trip, most of which was really delicious. I don’t think we had a bad meal the entire time, but we generally read menus before we decide on a place and I’m not [...]
I do not like picking favorites. I hate when people ask me my favorite food, drink, historical time period, color, musician or television show. I like a lot of things. I don’t like limiting myself. But I have 2 choices: I can either highlight my favorite things from our recent trip to Oregon and Washington, [...]
I’m back! Most of you probably assumed that I was on more than just a “blogging break,” and sure enough, Brian and I were on vacation all the way across the country. Thanks again to Caleb, Michelle, Katrina and Halley for writing such excellent guest posts. Last summer, Brian and I didn’t go on a [...]
I have this thing about time off. Even if I have a million things to do at home, I have very little patience for staying home more than 2 days in a row. If I’ve got a day off, I want to go somewhere and do something. So, over Memorial Day weekend Brian and I [...]
After running around Chicago with Kirstin on Thursday and then touring the Frito-Lay plant and going to the cocktail party on Friday, it was almost hard to believe that the main Healthy Living Summit event was still to come on Saturday. Because there are a million other HLS recaps out there, because I don’t think [...]
Though I’d been in Chicago since Wednesday, Friday was the first official Healthy Living Summit event I attended: a tour of the Frito-Lay Plant in Beloit, Wisconsin. We boarded a charter bus at 9:20 in the morning and headed out. The bus ride was supposed to be a couple hours, but Caitlin had come prepared [...]
The 6 days I spent in Chicago, exploring and attending the Healthy Living Summit were awesome. I am so glad I went. And now…let the recaps begin. HLS activities didn’t begin until Friday night, but when I discovered that the Healthy Living Summit was going to be in Chicago, I’d immediately contacted my friend Kirstin, [...]
I can’t believe it’s August already. It seems like school just got out and I had the whole summer ahead of me. I have 2 choices: I can lament the fact that school is starting in less than a month (with the assumption that I actually have a job; it’s not official yet) OR [...]
Brian and I spent most of our time in Philly in the Old City. We did a ton of walking in that area alone. However, I couldn’t quite resist making the hike to Center City to see Reading Terminal Market. How could I forgo checking out “the best, freshest and liveliest public market since 1893″? [...]
