There is one woman who has taught me the most about cooking and baking and that is my mom. Her kitchens were the “go to” spot that everyone just wanted to come and hang out in. Her homes have always been designed with the kitchen as the center of it all. I still to this day refuse to write down many recipes just so I have…

When you live in a household full of athletes and busy people who are always in and out, one of the greatest challenges is keeping everyone fueled. Yes, we have meals that we enjoy, but often it is the in-between times that are the biggest challenge; not to mention the “stop ins”. You know when a friend just stops by to say hi and ends…

There are many places we read about, hear about, and then dream about, but never think we’ll actually get there. It might be too far, out of the way, too small…But, these are often magical places that once we visit, we want to return again and again. One such magical place for me is Prince Edward Island (PEI). We have all read about the magical land…

There is no one in my house who deserves a special delivery package more than my two furry babies. The biggest issue I have when finding the right product for my two guys is keeping the products natural, while making sure they are items they will love.

As we all sit in our homes having breakfast and planning dinner, we know we can run to the market and pick up what we need. It is a luxury to be able to jump in the car and run to the market for an extra pound of ground beef or a quart of milk. It is not often that we think of the farmer…

California is a state we love for many reasons, well beyond triathlons. You can experience the ocean to the mountains and everything in-between within hours. Surf in the morning and ski in the afternoon if you want; it’s all at your doorstep. And, don’t even get us started on the wine and food. California has some of our favorite vineyards and restaurants in the world….

Several things happened to me in the past 6 months. I discovered I weighed the most I’ve EVER WEIGHED IN MY LIFE and then I realized a possible cause; I was getting SO bored with my current exercise regimen that I was finding any excuse not to do it and having great success!

It has been an experience, however, albeit a…
