The Meat House

As a vegetarian, I never thought I would need to enter a place called "The Meat House." Luckily my parents explored it one day and my mom said, "I bet they have good fresh mozzarella." I ventured in last week for this potentially delicious mozzarella, and boy was my mom right. But not only that, they also have roasted artichoke hearts which I luuurve! So tender and flavorful. They also sell Stonewall Kitchen products, beer, wine, and Clear Flour Bakery breads (which I think are half off after 8pm). And, as if all of that were not enough, it's only a 5 minute walk from my place!! I have a feeling I will be returning to The Meat House often.

Finding Something You Thought you Lost

I don't like losing things; who does? So I doubly love finding something I thought I lost, whether it's a shirt, an earring, or even just a favorite pen. It's a good feeling!

Partly Cloudy

A friend just told me about a Pixar Short called Partly Cloudy. The premise is that storks deliver babies, but where do the storks get the babies? From the clouds, of course! As with all Pixar movies and shorts, it's fantastically done and comes with a great ending. Enjoy!

Sleeping In

I do not get to sleep in very often. As in, almost never. I'm usually up around 5am to get in a workout before work and even on the weekends I'm out of bed at 7am to go for a long bike ride or run. On the rare days when I get to sleep late, I really enjoy it. (And by late, I mean 8:30am! So crazy!!)

Motivational Clip from my Coach

I've been a little frustrated with my cycling progress, so in order to motivate me, my coach sent me this video. It reminds us that the important thing isn't that you fell, it's that you got up and kicked butt!

The RidicuList

I stumbled upon Anderson Cooper's RidicuList a few weeks ago and thought it was hilarious. The basic premise is that Anderson Cooper highlights something ridiculous (obvi) that recently happened in the news. The latest video is for anyone who messes with Matt Damon. Just go watch it. Trust me.

Blueberry Cake

I made this delicious blueberry breakfast cake yesterday. I used fresh blueberries and leftover buttermilk and it was really incredible. The photos on the recipe webpage are much more attractive than the one above that I took and really show the texture of the cake. I highly recommend making this for a brunch pot-luck!
