A Quest For Healthy Living
The Pickity Place is one of my favorite places in the world. It’s a restaurant, gift shop, greenhouse and garden all rolled into one. Situated far out in the woods of New Hampshire, the little red house has been around for hundreds of years, and was famously drawn into the story of Little Red Riding…
My friend Tilden visited this week. She’s from Seattle, but has been to Boston more times than either of us could count. This trip was different because her mom came along, and she had never really explored Boston, so we got to play tourist in our own city. Our tour began at the State House,…
I find myself yelling at strangers a lot, but only from the safety of my car with the windows rolled up. I feel like people are so much more inconsiderate and selfish than they used to be. No more please, thank you, or excuse me. They text and drive. Eat and drive. Talk on the…

I am feeling extra thankful for my husband today. He’s my partner at work (though I let him think he’s the boss – it’s on a mug), in workouts, and in life. He makes me breakfast before work every morning, does all the dishes, and helps me clean when I tornado clothes and papers all over…
We’ve spent a lot of time outdoors lately, you know, since that 10 feet of snow melted here in Boston. We’ve been grilling multiple times a week, since everything just seems to taste better that way, and the clean-up is so easy. And what is easier meal on the grill than burgers? Nothing. The answer…
