Then, when my girlfriend and I started our Sunday morning work-outs, we decided we’d celebrate when we walked a full mile by going to brunch here. So, a few weeks ago, we hit the mark and headed over for a well-earned meal and we were NOT dissappointed. Carman’s across the street from 11th District police (holla, boys! I always shake my ass a little for ya in appreciation as I walk by). You’ll know it when you see the big dog house out front and the pick-up with the picnic table in the back.

Wednesday, July 29th, 20091) It’s interactive. The components (sea salt, coconut, grapefruit & lime) come in layers with the salt on top so you have to stir it up before use. Blending the ingredients also changes the color, which, let’s face it, is just plain cool.
Veggie Frittata
Tuesday, July 28th, 2009This is a great dish for breakfast, lunch or dinner, for just a couple or a crowd. And you can tailor it to your liking. If you want lower fat, use egg whites. If you don’t like peppers or basil, put in something or simply leave ‘em out. Really, you can put just about anything into one of these and it’s super easy.

Life Has A Mean Backhand
Friday, July 24th, 2009Yesterday, as twitter followers know, I checked out a new yoga class. I thought it went really well, left feeling nicely stretched, if a little sore, but nothing I couldn’t handle.
Later in the day, I got a tweet from SPF friend, Catherinette in regards to her Operation Muffin Top(ple) (OMT), which read, in part, “What do you hate most about working out?”

Tuesday, July 14th, 2009Like many of you, I know about the evils of aluminum in my deodorant, but I am still torn between the natural alternatives and my beloved, unhealthy standbys. I am a big sweater. No, I am not made of wool, I have over-productive pores. And I have finally come to accept that no organic deodorant contains an antiperspirant b/c that wouldn’t be natural.

And, newsflash: a lot of wedding showers are torturous affairs with stupid games where a bunch of women have to make a dress out of toilet paper. Do I look like Monique Lhuillier to you?
