Happy Nevada Day Weekend!
With Friday off for Nevadans, I celebrated the day with a chilly 35 mile bike ride in the am, followed by a ton of overdue house chores, cleaning, and wash. As I was left pondering how the day went by so darn fast at 5pm, I made one of the quickest, cheapest, and tastiest dinner creations to date. Now that’s my kind of dinner! (more…)
Whew, where has the time gone? I apologize for being MIA lately, but life has come along and shifted my time away from the blog. It’s sure is tough fitting it all in as you guys all know, but I’m hanging in there and doing my best to maintain this little corner of the blogosphere that I enjoy so much. I know that posting regularly is the best for readership, but it just doesn’t quite work that way for me now =/ and sometimes there is nothing like a weekend full of good times and good friends.

It seems like all I’ve been posting lately is bike ride this and bike ride that doesn’t it?! Sorry about that, but alas I have another cycling event post! At this point last year when Chris was getting ready for Viva 2009, it was about 4 months after we had both started cycling and I had thought to myself, I don’t know if I could ever do a century! It’s funny to look back and realize that was going through my mind at that point in time. I was so happy for Chris, but I was still pretty new to this whole cycling thing and my foot was just barely touching the water. Flash forward to now and I’ve just about jumped right in!!! So far with this century under my belt now, I’ve finished 2 centuries, one of which was the Napa Century, and am going to be on a cycling team! A lot can happen over the course of a year . . .

Hi guys!! I am sooo loving this cool down we are having! I actually had to put on a little zip up jacket when we were walking Buster last night. We even had a pretty torrential downpour Monday and I didn’t quite make it home from my bike ride (pic to follow). First, I have to share some pictures from the Furnace Creek 508 bike race this past weekend with my friend Jen. She is the most inspirational, amazingly strong cyclist and athlete I know and I was absolutely honored and excited to be on her crew. It was one experience I will never forget . . . (more…)
