Wine Country Day Trip
With this map as our guide and our taste buds as our motivation we explored Napa for the day. Dave navigated in and out of fields of grapes to get us to various wineries and we enjoyed every sip, swish and swirl. With this gourmet playground only an hour drive from our apartment we are …
Running through my mind
Even though I woke up pretty sore Sunday morning, I was determined to run my seven mile goal for the day. So, while catching up on blogs that I have missed over the busy week at work, I ate one of my favorite meals of all time, banana and nut butter (this time it was …

Our initial stop involved a bakery that has incredible pastries - baked goods that are truly worth breaking Passover a few hours early …
Kinda like a day back in college
Saturday definitely reminded me of a day back in college: some exercise, a lecture, free goodies and a night out. After another successful workout on the elliptical I showered and hopped in the car with Dave to head to an alumni event. This time it was a small lecture from a famed Brandeis professor and …

After days of rain and a night of festivities around the neighborhood, Sunday was a slow, relaxing day full of sleep, sun and eats. The day began with a replenishing breakfast of eggs and then a walk through the farmers market - one of my favorite weekend activities. To be honest, not much else was …
