I'm going to attempt to keep this short as I'm tired. I didn't sleep well last night and had a long day that ended with Snowflake taking a big spill on her bike and getting pretty banged up. I need to do something other than blog tonight. I hope you understand. This week in my nutrition and electrolyte replacement learning I tried the things you see above. Well most of them. For the last two ... Read More about Training Tuesday: Half Marathon Training Week 11

Training Tuesday: Half Marathon Week 9
Another week down! Yay! My tip for you this week is in regard to electrolyte replacement drinks. I'm not sure it is a tip so much as I would love to have a discussion with you.

I didn't want the plain white of the ... Read More about Command Central: Fabric Covered Artist Canvas

I haven't shared anything American Girl Doll with you in quite a while. Not since I went on my sewing spree in the Spring. Get ready for some American Girl fun because I have this post and a few others to come. :-) Snowflake had seen this bed at IKEA when we were there last year.
