The Important People

Most of the people we encounter come and go; friends, pen pals, some family, teammates, loves…the fact that all of these people do not remain constant does not make them any less important. Everyone we encounter helps shape how we develop and the choices we make in our everyday lives.

Brussels Sprouts

Tossed and Covered

My mom is always saying, “I found a new Brussels Sprouts recipe.” My first question is always, “Oh yeah, how many ingredients?” I like most of my vegetables pretty simple…just how they come, with some salt and pepper…I eat sprouts 3-4 times per week regularly. They are just so freaking good, and easy. Here is what I do…

Raging

Oh Lord...

So, I struggled. 6 weeks of painful, self-inflicted mind games and loads of bullshit. My body was out of whack, my mind followed, and my focus seemed non-existent. I spent that time going through the motions. (Albeit important, load bearing, fat burning motions…but in a heartless and gutless manner, it seemed.)

Berry Cobbler

I made this the other day. It was a treat. I did not regret eating it, even though I know I shouldn't have.

Mini Update

They say a picture is worth 1,000 words...

The lighting from the middle photos (2 weeks ago) is better and I like them better, even though I'm technically fatter.

The SLAW Formula

Standard Slaw Fixin's

I have this thing for slaw. I think of something to make for dinner, and then have to decide what will accompany it, many times it is shredded vegetables in some sort of dressing. I love slaw. It is so simple and sweet, tangy and tasty. I mix up tons of different things and call it slaw…but here is my basic formula:

Getting (Bike) Dressed

 I should be filing…but…

1.       It makes my back hurt, and

2.       It’s boring as hell

So I am going to write about how I get dressed to go biking in cold weather. It was super nice yesterday, which required only shorts and a jersey…but the weather for next week looks lame, so it might be back to the sleeves, pants, jacket, and gloves.
