Hello blog. It's been a little while since I have written. We have been enjoying a bunch of yummy meals over here, and I have lots of pictures to add... Hopefully they will come soon...We've had graduations (Eric and bro) and a new nephew so we've been up to a good deal of family time. This weekend Eric and I are headed to St. Augustine. The mini-vacay is mostly to get out of town one last time before the big... Bar study begins. It's actually almost our two year anniversary (May 22nd), so we can add that to the mix for the weekend festivities.There will be limited time together after the Bar prep starts, as I've been warned. Eric will be taking his Kaplan class Monday thru Saturday 9am-1pm. They stress that he will be on a "training program" and have them scheduled to study 7 days a week ... View Post

Fig Power Balls
Fig balls or bars. Easy vegan dried fig recipe great for pre or post workout! Fig Balls - a vegan power ball recipe. I was bit by the bug, again.Six weeks ago I began triathlon training. It's been two years since my last race (April 2010). I took a little hiatus after I got married, not because I didn't enjoy triathlon, but simply out of convenience. I didn't have easy access to a pool. Went on a few group rides, but never really started exploring the roads in Orlando. Shortly after we got married, we joined a running group and began training for our first marathon, and continued with marathoning and did another this past year. Then I got bit. I was down at the Y clocking in for a consult and ran into the coach of the tri-club. As we got to talking he asked... ... View Post

Eggplant Spelt Ravioli
Spelt, have you heard of it? It's a whole grain that's pretty ancient dating back to more than 8,000 years ago. The rich history of spelt attracted me... it's even talked about in the bible. Since I've been dying to make homemade pasta using this pretty little ravioli stamp, I decided to give spelt a rendezvous in ravioli. Cabot's 75% reduced-fat cheddar made this new-to-me whole grain even tastier. I'm pretty skeptical of reduced-fat cheeses because they usually make a rubbery and flavorless mess. To be honest, I was surprised that even though Cabot's cheese is 3/4 the fat of regular cheddar, it still melts into gooey-oooey-goodness. It's almost like magic in your mouth. To top it off, it doesn't leave my stomach in knots cause it's lactose-free, yo. Gotta say, my husband's ... View Post
a love letter
A dear friend of mine sent me this song recently by Audrey Assad. To me, it's a beautiful love letter from God. Have you ever thought about the truth in those words? I sure hadn't, and they struck me. God shows up. He's in the here and now. I'm finding this out...slowly. He goes where we go. God is coming for me. Wherever I go. This fascinates me.This promise blows my mind, but even more... it rattles my heart. He comes to redeem what we burry deep inside of us...God is in constant pursuit of our hearts. Does that shake you up inside? ... View Post
