Yesterday was an absolutely perfect day, a perfect day at the farms!! I woke up early and took my time getting ready for the day. I showered, shaved my legs, did my hair, did my makeup, and wore one of my favorite shirts. With a smoothie in hand, I headed to Virginia to meet up…
Last night Neal and I went to dinner at Mykonos Grill in Rockville, MD with our dear friends Amanda and Matt. Neal and I have driven past Mykonos Grill in Rockville a number of times and have really been itching to go for a while now. The inside of the restaurant is elegant and comfortable,…
Yesterday was such a good day! Neal and I woke up pretty early and headed over to Virginia to get Theodore a haircut. The lady we found, first through a Groupon, is well worth the drive to Arlington. Plus we get to have breakfast at Mancini’s, our favorite breakfast place in Alexandria. After a long…
Last night my friend Becky and I met up at this AWESOME beer, wine, cheese, and sandwich shop in Rockville, MD. Gilly’s, which turns 5 this year, is just about the coolest place I’ve found since moving to Maryland. Gilly’s has an outstanding craft beers selection, with hundreds of beers to choose from! They also…

Last night Neal and I went on a much needed date!! It’s so easy to get wrapped up in our schedules and commitments, making it really important for us to get out of the house and to go on dates. Last night we went to see 42, which was an absolutely amazing movie!! Every year…
It’s so surreal, but I saw Jillian Michaels last night on the DC leg of her Maximize Your Life tour!!! It was such a fun night and boy do I have a lot to share… Before the show, I met up with my Katy, Jessica, Becky, and Jennie at Matchbox in Chinatown. It was so…
I am a firm believer that one’s environment can make a world of different in their health, lifestyle, and well being. Over the years I’ve learned that I need to live in a place that… Is surrounded by nature (parks, trees, hiking trails, lakes/rivers) Has a close knit community Is close enough to retail stores…
I’m not going to lie, yesterDAY stunk! Sunday night I set my cell phone alarms for 6AM and 6:10AM as I had an 8AM appointment with my chiropractor in DC. At 7AM I was startled awake by Neal’s alarm, completely unaware as to whether or not my alarms had actually gone off. Panicked by the…
This past weekend, Neal and I enjoyed a long weekend filled with long walks, site seeing, and lots of good eats.

Though I secretly wish the weekend had been filled with lots of green beer, it ended up being a pretty good weekend! It started Friday with a wonderful lunch with Lauren at Whole Foods. It had been quite some time since seeing Lauren, so I was incredibly thankful that she drove and took the metro…
