Running through life while balancing healthy eating and single motherhood
Halfway through the week! Let’s start today’s post with my post-run beach lunch of a bialy with vegetable cream cheese and tomato. It had been a good two weeks since I last had a salad from Chopt. No spicy-sweet peppers this time! I swapped those out for sweet potatoes. Everything is chopped so small that […]
It’s that time of year again! Mother’s Day breakfast tradition time! If you have been reading for a while, you know that my son and I have a very special Mother’s Day breakfast tradition. It’s a really big deal for us. Well, a really big deal for me. I’m not sure that my son cares […]
I know we care most about my Mother’s Day breakfast tradition but first, let’s chat workouts from the week. A few things to note: I was all about time on my feet this week. Going into the week, I knew I felt like running. Not so much about speed or workouts specifically, just about […]
Our 9th annual Mother’s Day breakfast tradition is in the books! No joke, if you don’t arrive at Maureen’s Kitchen when they open at 7:00 AM, you are going to wait. We pulled in at 6:58 AM to see a line at the door. If you get there at 7:15, trust me when I say […]
Today’s Friday Favorites post is all about my excitement for this Sunday as it’s time for our 9th annual Mother’s Day Breakfast Tradition!!!! Long time readers already know that Mother’s Day has basically become my favorite day of the year — and so much of it has to do with our breakfast tradition. My son and […]
Another Nor’Easter of snow on its way here to New York today. I’m not going to complain, just going to hope this is the last of it! They can’t even figure out if they should close the schools yet. It’s not supposed to get bad until later AND if they close a full day, […]
Mother’s Day is Sunday and it has basically become my favorite day of the year. In case you didn’t already know from previous years here on the blog, my son and I have a very special Mother’s Day breakfast tradition. We started our early morning breakfast tradition back in 2010 which was the first […]
It’s been a nice week so far with my son off from school for Passover and Spring Break. No early morning wake ups or rushing out the door needed! Although, the weather has been PERFECT so running in the morning has been a pleasure. I ran in shorts and a t-shirt yesterday! Anyway, I […]
In my head this week was going to go slow but look, it’s already Wednesday! Here’s a peak at what I ate yesterday… Breakfast: This former favorite breakfast of mine of an English muffin with peanut butter has been working really well for me once again so I am continuing to go with it even […]
I haven’t done a Friday Favorites post in a forever! I have a bunch of things I am loving this week so let’s get to it! Hair Care: I restocked my favorite Kerastase products! I had let my bottles run out and really waited way too long before replacing them. While Kerastase products are […]
Good morning! I am all cheery today because my son is off from school the rest of the week (another spring break) so we are in no rush to get out the door. Yesterday was my last serious run before Sunday’s race so I will head out at my leisure this morning to run just […]
I woke up in a bit of a mood both Monday and Tuesday morning. Not tired per say, just moody. Now, of course there’s always that chance that my moodiness may just be a product of my ever-charming, often hormonally driven + Gemini + Jewish mother + New Yorker personality but that wasn’t quite it. It took me until Tuesday morning, as I […]
