I didn’t need to see that.

I didn’t need to see that.
Another gorgeous summer day in the books.  I am happy to say that I got out before work for a run/walk.  This time I ended up walking a song, and then running a song.  The best part was that I never really knew when the running would end, but I knew most songs couldn’t be more than four minutes or so, so I stuck with...

Zucchini Lasagna Rollups

Zucchini Lasagna Rollups
These zucchini lasagna rollups are a great way to use up summer zucchini. I’ve been making the excuse lately on the days I work the market, that because my job is a lot of manual labor (packing up coolers, packing up my car, unpacking at the market, repacking after the market, putting everything back when I get to the shop) that I just take it...

Shit Just Got Real

Shit Just Got Real
It is not surprising that I had a gain going into my WI yesterday.  I thought maybe a couple pounds from vacation – note this is a two week WI, but still. When I saw 2.4 on the sticker, I thought “well, that’s not too bad!”  Um, no – that’s how much I am up from the first time I weighed in April – so...

Burgers, Pizza, Ribs…oh my!

Burgers, Pizza, Ribs…oh my!
The weather was awesome this past weekend – makes working the farmers markets that much better.  In the two markets I worked over the weekend, we made $3100 – great weather=more people=more opportunity to sell a lot of veggie burgers!  Here’s a tip from me to you though – I never really thought about it before, but most vendors only have a bank of $100. ...

James Taylor to Virginia

James Taylor to Virginia
When my Mom suggested getting tickets to see James Taylor and Jackson Browne last fall, we had no idea that the family reunion would fall on the immediate weekend following the concert.  The concert was at Wrigley Field in Chicago, and being a White Sox fan, that’s about the only time you’ll see me in that stadium is for a concert! The weather ended up...

Home Again!

Home Again!
Wow, what a whirlwind week it was!  From the James Taylor concert last Thursday night through my family reunion in Virginia, this week went by fast, but I packed a lot into that week, that’s for sure!  I plan on doing a vacation recap post tomorrow, but I wanted to thank my twin sister Jennifer for her guest post and continuing to inspire me to...

Fourth of July!

Fourth of July!
Hello! Hannah here. Hope everyone had a successful, relaxing & enjoyable 4th of July weekend- While Jacob and I both worked yesterday, we definitely still made time for relaxation and some good ole grillin’ for dinner. It’s funny because while I typically don’t like meat, there are times when I find myself cooking a bunch of it! Yesterday was one of those days- we decided...

Happy Friday – Guest Post by Jenn

Hi all!  It’s Jennifer – Biz’s twin sister.  Since Biz and our Mom were leaving at the crack of dawn to go on vacation – I’m taking over for today. I think what I will share is my weight loss success so far this year.  It’s going pretty well – I can’t believe I’m still at it!  Like everyone else in January – I was the “I’m...
