I am just post a long, slow 2 hour workout (legs, abs, hitt) and I feel GORGEOUS. Sweaty, pumped, smelly and lean....woooo! :D

I don't think is one magic solution. Variety is what makes the difference, IMO. Lift heavy, then do circuits, then take a week of yoga, run, spin, splits, kickboxing, pilates, whatever. Mix up the exercise, eat food that came from the ground or had a mother, and don't stress it! My formula...

Wow! I guess people are fed-up with OPKs (other people's kids)! Dang.

I didn't realize Cathe was that short! Though she towers over me by two inches. :D

Ditto! Clean eating, watch the salt, tons of water, and amp up the intensity of your workouts!

Wooooo!! Good luck!!

Congrats Nan!!

Someone will definitely call the police on me one day, if only for the look on my face as I stand there stroking the plump and saucy peppers and sighing. Kate and Carrie, have fun at your markets! Let me know if it was good for you too, lol!!

The gorgeous fruits and veggies, the locally made cheeses (wasabi goat cheese - fantastic!) the homemade pies and breads, the maple syrup man, the beekeepers and their honey...a feast for the senses, especially for the food ho's amongst us who think about eating the way other people think about...

The mind boggles. http://tiny.cc/PtHYA What does everyone think?

Me too. I know we have a long way to go but I'm encouraged by the fact that the farmer's markets in my area - and there are quite a few - are always jamming. And not just with the yuppie herds either. :)

No, I'd missed that, thanks for the link, I just read it. Totally ridiculous. Interesting how they talk about giving consumers a choice because consumers don't like to feel that they are being dictated to. I have a feeling that the reality is exactly the opposite. I'd be willing to bet...

Writing in the NYT. Short piece. Follow the tiny link. :D http://tiny.cc/CuDl2

I've got to ask because for most of my life my period was no big deal but for the last six months or so it's been awful. I don't sleep the week before, I get blazing headaches (that's been for a couple of years) my skin goes bananas and my mood hits the dirt. I'm the snarling beast from hell...

And don't give up with one call if they are unhelpful at first. Citicard tried this with us. They doubled us for *no* reason. I called and pitched a fit...at first they said "sorry can't help." DH called and pitched a fit, same response. Finally, the third time, they cut it back to where it...

My gosh, almost all the women I know knit! Even the little girls (and some boys) in my circle have taken it up. I think it's fun, though I'm a newbie and have spent all summer frowning over a dishcloth. I love to sit in a group chatting and knitting. People are always going to have...

I'm excited for you that your DH is almost home! DH and I met at a b-day party but our real first date was at a fantastic restaurant, arranged by him. I didn't know it then but he drove all over creation and back checking out restaurants within an hour's drive, examining the menus etc. He...

I didn't realize you home-schooled! That's awesome. My sis does and I always tell her I'm coming down for lessons. Seems like so much fun! Could you offer free samples - just a taste - so folks can see that vegan tastes fine, and then sell the larger items?

ITA! Between Halloween and Christmas I usually say to DH at least once "maybe we *should* have kids." His response is always "Let's talk about it after New Year." Of course by then the urge has passed...:D I also love sitting on my porch with a cup of tea, wrapped in a blanket and watching...
