Rambling Randoms.

• Husband is gearing up to run the Chicago Marathon again. This means that I need to compile some new recipes that are majorly veggie/protein/carb based. It’s difficult, as we LOVE comfort foods! Just yesterday, I made this baked dish with sauteed broccoli, potatoes, & onion…fresh, crumbled bacon sprinkled on top, and then an added layer of creamy, homemade, cheddar-jack sauce. Y-E-S. It was so delicious, but such comfort isn’t ideal right now (& for the next 5 months) I need to purchase a wok, to whip up some stir-fry dishes…& then discover some delicious sauces that aren’t soy sauce, or cream based. I’m not a big pesto, or tomato sauce fan either, so…where does that leave us?!…
• I haven’t been riding my bike as often as I thought I would, this Spring. Honestly, I’m still a bit terrified of plummeting to my death. #dramatic
  Husband says I overcompensate when my balance starts to veer to one side. He promises that my body will “auto-correct” this, as it doesn’t want to fall, and the bike (when in motion) also wants to remain upright. I don’t know why this is so hard for me to believe. I need figure out a way to conjure this confidence.
• Thanks for all the feedback on this post I really appreciate hearing your thoughts on the subject, as well as, all the encouraging words & nice compliments. Sometimes I wish there was a honest, success-proven guide for lifestyle/personal blogging, professionally! I’m still weighing the pros & cons of combining MM with my offline professional career, but leaning towards taking the leap. I stand behind everything that I do online, and virtually everybody I know, already knows that I blog here & are supportive…so…yeah…I’m excited & anxious.
  …& nervous.
• I want some new earrings. These would really set off my new hair cut.
