Good afternoon! How are all of you doing? I am well. Thanks for the advice on the camera. I am still on fence. Feel free to chime in with your experience/ opinions.
During my lunch break, I met with my professor to go over my video. It wasn’t THAT bad, just weird to watch myself and have him critiquing me. I will be interested to see what my grade is like.
Lunch was a GIANT salad and it was soooooo goooooood! I used to eat huge salads like this all the time, but for some reason I took a little break. Well, it is back in full force!
This giant delicious salad contained everything in our fridge:
- Spring Mix
- carrots
- red peppers
- tomatoes
- reduced fat feta
- edamame
- black beans
- corn
- salsa
- hummus
The corn and edamame was actually frozen. I just added it this morning and by the time it was time to eat, they were thawed. I do this a lot with lunch salads. I like to buy frozen stuff -it is cheaper and lasts longer.
In Other News:
I got a bunch more “Ask Me Anything” Quetions.
Q: do you find that blogging makes you want to dress cuter so your readers will like your outfits? i always love looking at what you wear!
A: Yes and No. Ultimately, I wear what I want. But, some days when I am dressed pretty boringly, I feel bad for readers like you that look forward to my outfits. But, I am a real person and everyone can’t be a fashion plate all of the time!
Q: What is something that really annoys you?
A: Hum, this is a broad question. I don’t know if the person wanted it to be blog related or not. So I will do one blog related and one normal everyday life. Blog related: I hate when I work on a long post and my internet acts a fool! It is soooo annoying and I can get pretty worked up. Regular everyday life: Long lines in stores. I HATE when I have to wait in line to spend my money. It makes no sense to me at all!
Q: Are you and Adam going to have kids right away?
A: No. We do want kids, but not right away. I want to finish my Master’s Degree first and then we want a little time to ourselves to travel. I am thinking we will probably start a family in our early 30′s.
Q: When you first started running how long did it take you to get to a point where you were able to run 3 miles without any problems?
A: I think it was about 2 and a half months. I would add about 1/4 of a mile every week. It took A LOT of self direction and determination. I wanted it really badly!!!
Q: What is you favorite movie of all time?
A: That would be a tie between Mary Poppins and Empire Records. Strange combo, I know!
I get the “how tall are you?” about once a day. I have answered it a few times now- I am almost 5’6.
If you have asked a question that has not been answered yet, please re-send it. My e-mail ate a few questions and I want to make sure I get to everyone. I am accepting “Ask Me Anything” Questions until Friday, March 5th, so hurry up and get them in. To submit an question, click here.

I haven’t had much interest in salads recently, with the cold weather and all. Trying to get my veggies in GMs or with dinner.

Your salad looks great and it made me realize that edamame was what was missing from my dinner tonight…would have made it perfect! And I could watch empire records any day of the week!
Can you make that salad and then send it to me? It looks so good!
Yum. Your salad looks great! I’ve decided that I am just not happy without a giant salad every day. They’re just so good!
