A Look Back at 2010
Another year down. I cannot believe today is the last day of 2010 and also the last day of the decade. Wow. Starting this blog was one of the best things I’ve done this year. It has given me a creative outlet, allowing me to write about and document events in my life that I wouldn’t normally write about if I didn’t have a place to do it. It gave me new friends, new accomplishments, exciting goals, and allows me to hold myself accountable to many things. Let the 2010 Re-Cap begin! March 2010 I started this blog, and I did not photograph food very well! (Hello camera phone). April 2010 I went to…

Catching up at Red’s
Tuesday evening my sister and I had a special date with one of our close friends from college, Ashley. Ashley just recently got engaged to her boyfriend Joe. It had been a while since we’ve seen them so we wanted to get together for dinner! Look at her gorgeous ring! Congrats Ash & Joe! 🙂 We decided to have dinner at Red’s Seafood & Wine Bar in Coxsackie–a small town about half way between where each of us lives. It was so hard to decide on what to order, since all of the seafood looked fantastic. My sister and I ended up splitting the clam steamers as an appetizer. But…

What to do on a Snow Day
What is a girl to do when she is snowed in? Brew some Snow in the Tropics tea, of course! Then, look outside. Definitely not the tropics. 🙁 Decide to go snowshowing. But first, find snowshoes for $3 at a garage sale! Snowshoeing in the woods is so peaceful! I might go back out there later… After snowshoeing, make a cheddar and superfruit jam sandwich. Enjoy while watching Sunrise Earth on TV. And pretend I’m at the beach. Did you get tons of snow today? If so–what do you do during your “Snow Day”?

Christmas Update
I hope everyone had a fantastic holiday. I know my family and I did! And so did a certain cat! Where’s Cedric’s present? In his stocking of course. Cedric got some treats and a toy lizard for Christmas. Too bad he wanted nothing to do with the catnip lizard. He would rather be playing in luggage set boxes. We had fresh french vanilla coffee and White Christmas Tea while opening presents with my parents! I opted for the tea! (in my new Starbucks mug –thanks Brendan!) Some of my loot: A hand held blender!!! A headlamp (for nighttime running) and some sweet Smartwool running socks! Post present opening I…
