Let me first be super honest here…I am a total control freak and I love and want to be with my kids more than anything.

There is triathlon training season and then there is triathlon training season. The training goes up and down based on when the race is and what type of race it is. There are A races and B races and then there are the “it’s just for fun” races that they treat like an “A” race. You also have to consider where in the training cycle…

Are you craving traditional, old-fashioned meatballs and want to serve them with your carb loading meal before a race? Well, I have a homemade meatballs recipe that you only need one bowl to make, cuts the grease, and you most likely already have all the ingredients in the house.

Hey, it’s summer! The kids are out of school, you haven’t been away for awhile, and your triathlete is driving you crazy. We all need to get away at times and just because your triathlete is training hard and heavy doesn’t mean you all still can’t take an in-season family getaway. It just takes some common sense and special planning. A lot has been written…

We love salmon in our house and have it a lot. So, I’m always trying out a new salmon recipe to shake things up rather than just the normal steaming or grilling. I did this recipe when we were headed out of town the next day and I wanted to use up what was in the frig. It ended up being fast, delicious, protein-filled, and…

We spend our lives as parents raising strong, independent kids who go off to college or off on other adventures for the next step in their lives. It’s the American Dream right? Well, it really sucks when they head off to college. You miss them, they don’t “need” you as much, and they often move far away. But, I miss them for another reason… There…
