Inspired by Cactus Club

September 26, 2011

I headed to the gym RIGHT when I got home so that there was no risk of my skipping it. 35 minutes of ellipticalling (yes, it’s a word…just go with it) later – I was back up here and MORE than ready for dinner! Inspired by our awesome meal this weekend at Cactus Club in [...]

Better Than Qdoba

September 12, 2011

When I was out last week dealing with all my travel troubles, I missed a free office lunch from Qdoba! I was super bummed about it and haven’t been able to get the idea of Mexican out of my head since, so I’m sure you can guess what we had for dinner! Brown rice, [...]

Just the Taste

July 20, 2011

I came home tonight with absolutely no desire to spend time in the kitchen (this rarely happens). I wanted Mexican but I didn’t have the energy to go through all motions of making a big meal so I put together a smattering of items that would just give me the taste (without the effort!) It [...]

Hole-in-the-Wall

June 3, 2011

Clara (my sister’s dog) might be the weirdest and most adorable dog on the planet. She’s obsessed with digging into covers (any blankets really, no matter where they happen to be) and making a little fort out of them for herself. For example, let’s play a game called “Find Clara” – let me know if [...]

May 5th!

May 5, 2011

Happy Cinco de Mayo everyone! Today flew by in a flash – in a good way though. I was busy throughout the day and it felt like the first time I looked at the clock it was almost 6pm! I quickly packed up my stuff and flew home to meet Mike to start in our [...]
