I know I have a tendency toward hyperbole (I do it EVERY SINGLE TIME, right? ), but truly, these cookies are ah-maze-ing. I have always enjoyed oatmeal cookies (as long as they didn’t have raisins, which I detest), but these cookies…dude, they’re like crack in cookie form. This recipe was a gift from God given to me by a former co-worker who was an intern at my office a few years ago. Her name is Mallie, which looks like it would...
Argh. Work is still stressful. After my loooong working weekend, I skipped my Monday intervals. Then I skipped my Tuesday easy 3-miler. I had planned to run three on Wednesday, but I forgot to set my alarm. That was day number FOUR of no running. As it turns out, I get really cranky when I don’t run. Ask my husband. I was an A #1 bitch when I got home Wednesday night, and then I found out that I had to take JJ to a hockey skills skate in Woodhaven...

Dude, what a rotten day. It started with a really awful day at work (have you noticed a pattern lately…believe it or not, it’s still getting worse, leading up to a major project whose first draft is due this Friday). And it got worse. But let me back up. On Saturday, I was by myself at home because my husband took the boys camping with his dad. I had a 9-mile run on the schedule, but I was feeling oh-so-lazy Saturday morning, and since I...
I thought I would make a quick post to let everyone know how it went at my official Weight Watchers weigh-in today. When I arrived, I told Glenda everything that I had done, how I had followed the program exactly the way she said: adding an extra three points per day, for a total of 29, using my weekly points for all my treats, and making sure to get all 29 daily points from “real” food. I did my best to get my good health guidelines every...
