Hi friends, welcome back! As you know, Jon and I are big foodies, so we couldn’t go to Rome without joining a food tour. I booked ours through Eating Europe and they have tours in quite a few cities around Europe. Our tour was a Twilight Trastevere Tour that lasted four hours. That sounded like…

Hi friends, welcome back! I’ve got two great things to share today – first, it’s the last week of my busy season! Secondly, Jon and I recently went hiking in the Hudson Valley and had the best day! This was our first outing with our car and it went so smoothly. We woke up earlyish…

I’m going to start linking up with the first blogger I ever read, Shay Shull, for my What’s Up posts. Each month I’ll be answering the following questions: What I’m eating: Based on our freezer we only eat naan bread pizza, post workout smoothies, and ice cream. But seriously, Jon and I eat this naan…
This recipe has been almost a year in the making. Last July Jon and I made these brownies and we’ve been talking about making them again ever since! These black bean brownies are great because they don’t have any added sugar or artificial ingredients. They are also full of healthy fat and fiber, and don't contain gluten or dairy.…
Jon and I celebrated our one-year anniversary last Tuesday. He suggested that we make dinner together at the apartment so that we wouldn’t have to worry about other people sitting right on top of us. Sometimes it’s a little awkward how close the tables are at restaurants here, it’s like you’re on a double date.…
This was my first week working out in NYC and it went very well. A year ago I could barely bench 115# for one rep, and this week I got three reps with 115#. I've consistently been on a program the past year with a goal of getting stronger. I held the vision of being…
