Living in the Bay Area is something special. I have said it a lot: Here and Here and Here. But where can you enjoy the whirring liveliness of the city and then drive less than an hour and be surrounded by the serene beauty of nature. With some out-of-towners in toe, we spent the day …

Hi, my name is Jordan, and I am a 29 year-old yogi. At the start of this blog I was a half marathoner, and while I may not be running around anymore, I still have plenty of steps to take, so come join me :)
Compliments can go a long way
When I used to run with the San Francisco Road Runners I was complimented by a fellow runner on my running form. Following his flattering observation I ran with more confidence and pride. I even ran a little faster with an extra hop in my step. It felt great to be recognized for something I …
WIAW – Quick and Easy
I like to cook. I really do. But that doesn't mean that I slave over a hot stove for hours with countertops of ingredients. I like to use as few ingredients as possible because the shorter the list the faster I get to eat. The simpler recipes also give me less of a chance to …
Staycation
It would be lovely to dip my toes in the warm lapping waters of the Caribbean right now, but unfortunately I do not have the money or the time to escape on that kind of weekend adventure. I can, however, explore the Bay Area and all it has to offer with the wonder and awe of …
WIAW – an ode to eggs
I love eggs. I usually have them for breakfast every morning in some fashion, but I am also a huge fan of eating them for dinner! I love... Eggs with salsa Fried eggs Facon and eggs Eggs with greens Even made into a pancake! How do you like your eggs?

Some Feedback
Because running is off of the table until late Summer at the earliest I have turned to swimming and spinning. I really enjoy my time in the pool, but swimming wall to wall can get a bit old day after day, so I have turned to gym classes to get in a good workout. My …
WIAW – On a very long day
It's rare that my office has very long meetings, but yesterday was one of those days where I entered the building at 7am and did not leave until 5:30pm. We had an all day meeting with a handful of 10 minute breaks to stretch our legs and snarf down a snack. I was so tired …
Good for the Soul
Friends, good food and crocheting. Grab your friends, a ball of yarn (yes mine is sparkly) and this recipe and you will be sure to have a heartwarming evening. These burgers are delicious and easy, but of course everything tastes good out of Eli and Jacob's kitchen, so next time I'll make sure to invite …
Things that make me smile
Trying to pull out of a parking spot with a "not-so-cute" red car pinned behind me does NOT make me smile. But being physically able to walk all over the city for 3 hours certainly makes me smile 🙂 Trying to reconnect my DVD player with possibly the wrong wires, leaves me with a frown. …
