Sights & Sounds at the Farmer’s Market
About once a month I volunteer with Food Forward at a local farmer’s market, collecting food from vendors that they otherwise would’ve had to throw away, and donating it to food relief organizations. It’s a light, breezy way to spend an afternoon—with the occasional burst of cardio and strength training as you transport heavy boxes… Continue reading

May & June Favorites
Nothing quite captures the mood of the newly arrived summer heat than the text I got from my sister the other day politely asking me to “prepare a funeral for the death of my sanity.” The triple digits really hit hard. So I hope you’re reading this somewhere with air conditioning and an ice cold… Continue reading

My Best Day in June
I fell into a routine of doing these every other month, but then, some months just have a day you want to write about. Days you want to squeeze like a wet towel so you can wring out all the tiny details and get them down on paper so you can remember them for much… Continue reading

My Current Weekly Workout Routine
Piggy backing off of last week’s post about exercise (and doing it even if you’re not wearing a fitness tracker) I thought I’d revisit/update this blog from last April about my weekly workout routine.

January & February Favorites
This year certainly started with a bang. Every where you looked, there was surely chaos to be found. So when I could, I tried to look elsewhere. I tried to turn off social media and dig in to books, movies, and TV shows. I tried to read more blogs and try more recipes, to watch… Continue reading

It’s a Good Day to be a Duck
This past weekend we grieved the loss but also celebrated the life of my great uncle Ted. Looking around the room at his extended family, as well as the slideshow of pictures that showcased his persistent joy for life, I remembered fondly all of the time I got to spend with him. And having worked… Continue reading

In the Aftermath, Just Be There
A while back I wrote about an inspiring episode of the podcast My Unsung Hero, and today I wanted to share another one that seems particularly relevant. In Kimberly Godsey’s episode, she tells the story of her time training to be a nurse practitioner and how physician, Dr. Joe Seibert, gave her advice that has… Continue reading
