Just returned from about 3 days in Vegas. This is the third year in a row that we’ve gone in early December. We love it and it’s great to see Sin City decked out in holiday bling, but I must admit that it’s a hard time of the year to be away from home even [...]
I’m bad at drinking water on a daily basis. When I run or workout, I drink LOTS. But the “8 glasses a day”…..not so good at it. I need to hydrate and carb load the next couple days….that’s what the seasoned runners do. I tried this little pre-race concoction and it’s delish: Cranberry Pomegranate Emergen-C [...]
I’m so glad Jay decided to run the Santa Clarita Half Marathon yesterday. {He’s actually in this pic in the back of the pack} Not only am I so proud of him and his time, but it also got me excited for the Vegas Rock & Roll. Yes, I may have bitten off more than [...]
With my newfound love for making rosettes along with a sweet woman who stopped me and complimented my novice work, I decided that I am going to spread awareness and try to raise some money for CCFA. Next month’s Zappos.com Rock ‘n’ Roll Las Vegas Marathon & 1/2 is benefitting the Crohn’s & Colitis Foundation [...]
We’re back from Vegas… it really was the perfect celebration. Starting with this delivered to our room just minutes after arriving: A sweet {and bubbly} gift from two of my girls in Nor Cal. Thanks, Mel & Linz ~ it was the ultimate surprise to kick off the weekend! I was introduced to Bahama Breeze [...]
Miss Tiffany. Yay…congrats! Hope you enjoy your new flops! Please send me your address to: amy{at}flipflopfollies{dot}com and I will get them to you. Thanks to all who entered. Loved hearing about your Fall favorites. Stay tuned, I’m giving away another pair of Havaianas for my one-year Blogiversary in just a few weeks! *****
In 15 days we’ll be on our way to Paris, Sin City… I envision macarons, brie & baguettes. Croissants & pan au chocolat. Wine & more wine. {I’d better pack my New Balances!} I love {to the zillionth power} this picture! It was taken in Paris {again, the hotel in Vegas not the European city} [...]
Mmmmm…. Starting my Friday out by striking a match and taking it to a tea light under some Pumpkin Nectarine home fragrance oil. The ceiling fan is spreading the scent throughout the house. Fall is definitely in the air. ***** In 6 weeks from today we’ll be in Paris for my 40th! Well, OK…this Paris, [...]
In exactly 6 months from today I will be forty. GULP! Ten years ago I celebrated my 30th in Vegas. Man, 10 years ago! A lot has happened in that time…lots and lots of major life changes: Traveled lots for work, met Jay, bought a house, got 2 dogs, got engaged, got married, had a [...]
OK…I’m putting it out there so I have NO excuses. I am planning on signing up for the Las Vegas Rock N Roll Half Marathon on December 5, 2010. We were in Vegas last weekend when this was going on. I thought, “If The Biggest Loser peeps can do a FULL marathon, then I can certainly [...]
