… my new ride

August 17, 2010

I got her last night … although based on the size and power I think it may be a him.  Shiny Silver Civic was definitely a girl. I had the air conditioning on full for the trip home, I needed a sweat shirt and toque … HEAVEN!

… run sweat pray

August 15, 2010

I arranged to meet the Gster at the tunnel Saturday morning for our run.  He offered to pick me up, but I was all … no, I would love to do a few extra miles first, I’ll run from home (since I am without car) and meet you at the tunnel.  For you internet peeps, [...]

… lunch

August 13, 2010

Jamie Oliver claims, at least by name, this is The Best Pasta Salad.  I have no arguments. I served it with slices for fresh field grown heirloom tomatoes from the market, cause at this time of year, I can never have too much tomato.  Finished it off with a drizzle* of balsamic and chilli reduction. [...]

… car-less

August 12, 2010

I got run #2 in tonight with the Gster!  We did the loop of the park, even though the temps were hotter than Matthew McConnaughey playing the bongos we had a great run. I am officially car-less.  I sold my honda civic.  I am sad.  I can’t believe how emotionally attached I was to my [...]

… a blonde sells her car

August 11, 2010

I ran this morning, bright and early before the heat could destroy what little motivation I had.  It was a good run, no watch or garmin, just me and my crazy head.  One run of four I said I would do this week.  It’s already Wednesday, not a lot of room for procrastination. So, the [...]

… kitchen makeover

August 10, 2010

just call me Sarah Richardson … before beige blah, minus the hutch, which was already dismantled and painted when this was taken. When I originally ‘decorated’ the kitchen, I took the cupboard doors off and painted the inside blue. … after avocado green accent wall, brighten the other walls up with white corn (white with [...]

… 68 days to go

August 9, 2010

Happy Monday internet peeps! Turns out if you don’t run with your training group, which meets on set days and times, and you prefer to drink frozen cocktails on a patio in 100 degree temps to running, my running routine goes out the window faster than my morals after one four margaritas. I used to run [...]

… i won’t be in today

August 6, 2010

WORKOUT – ran 4 miles 37 ish minutes I set the alarm yesterday morning for 5.50am to run before work.  Didn’t happen.  I didn’t even bother with snooze when the piercing noise interrupted my blissful slumber.  I turned it off. I tried again this morning.  Success.  The breeze blowing in the bedroom window felt fall [...]

… ikea – swedish for love and hate

August 4, 2010

WORKOUT – 1 hour spin class phase two of the kitchen reno is now complete thanks to a visit to IKEA and the fabric store.  I bought a kitchen cart/island, new shelves and fabulous new curtain material.  Oh and napkins, candles, a utensil holder and tea lights. I’ve ordered a couple more things just enough [...]

… the final rose

August 2, 2010

it’s here, the big finale.  Will Ali, who left everything behind, gave up her job, her apartment, everything, everything find true love on a reality show? The spoilers say she doesn’t pick either guy.  They’ve been saying that for weeks.  Last week, Chris the host never asked if ‘she was in love’ which is his [...]
