So in an effort to post more of what's going on in my life I thought I'd add in a section for recipes I'm currently cooking. Most of which are pulled from other online cooks but I might change up an ingredient or two if I'm feeling sassy. This recipe is courtesy of Two Peas … Continue reading Sweet Italian Sausage Tortellini
Since our race on April 26, Jon and I have split up our training regimen. It used to be that he would run with me at my pace for whatever distance I was going to take on that day. But now that he's realized he does have 13.1 miles in him, he decided he wanted … Continue reading Training Update
West Bend, WI | April 26, 2015 | Time: 2:07:37 | What a flat race. I chose this race mostly due to it being on the Eisenbahn.

I think … Continue reading My Running Journey

Jon and … Continue reading RNR Vegas Kickoff Run
San Francisco, Napa, and Sonoma, CA | March 15-19, 2015 | What a much needed break from the grey and cold of Wisconsin this trip was!! Jon surprised me at Christmas with hotel reservations at a Napa boutique hotel- I'm sure I don't need to say how excited I was. Of course I also took … Continue reading A Cali Spring Break
I would have listed dates but let's be honest winter started on Halloween and it just came to a close last week. Granted this is really early for the weather to start getting nice so I'm sure we'll get screwed with another snow storm later this month. With the help of my Eddie Bauer Parka, … Continue reading My First Wisconsin Winter
