The Runner’s Diet {Recipe: Spring Salad with Orange Vinaigrette}

January 24, 2012

In 80 days, I’ll be running my first 5K – not walking, but R-U-N-N-I-N-G. As I’ve mentioned, I’ve officially gotten off my sedentary butt and have taken to going to the gym 4-5 times a week since the new year. I have also been exercising at home on my off days. I’m working with a [...]

Salad Dressing Your Way (Recipe: Poppy Seed Salad Dressing)

December 13, 2010

We have salad almost every night with our dinner. Nothing fancy… I typically just put out the tub of organic mixed greens from Sam’s Club and the family dishes from that. My kids love salad, so if all else fails and they don’t want to eat whatever it is we are having for dinner, I [...]

Ask a Blogger and Menu Plan Monday (Recipe: Special Spinach Salad)

March 22, 2010

I’m starting a new weekly feature at Dine & Dish to go along with Adopt a Blogger. I always feel so bad when I can’t get everyone adopted out that wants to be. It is typically because they have signed up too late and matches for adopt-a-blogger had already been made. For those people, waiting [...]

Embracing Rejection (Recipe – Taco Salad)

August 16, 2009

My photo of the Toasted Pita Salad that I wrote about last week was rejected by Tastespotting because of its “poor composition”. When I found that out, I was a little dejected and immediately felt a bit defensive.  Not that I think my photos are all that, it’s just, I was this close to submitting [...]

Good Neighbors (Recipe – Toasted Pita Salad)

August 10, 2009

I grew up in the country, which as I’ve talked about before, means no next door neighbors. We did have people who lived near us, if you call a quarter of a mile away near, but we never had the “hey… can I borrow a cup of sugar?” kind of close neighbors. We have been [...]
