5 Things I’m Grateful for Today: 1) my purple lululemon yoga pants 2) rental cars that handle really well 3) low-fat cottage cheese with organic red raspberries 4) Disco Naps 5) my iphone 4’s extended battery life. Today is one of those days, where you have so much on your “to do” list, that you […]

Well, the time has come. It’s March.
It’s been a looooooooong while since Jolly Old Saint Nick stole down your chimney & ate all your cookies, but it’s still a while until April showers bring May flowers. By now, 3 months into the new decade, your New Years’ resolutions have likely fallen by the wayside (be honest. You haven’t hit the gym 6 days a week for ‘step-sculpt-cardioboxing’, and the last time you ate a vegetable was….
