Before I forget, if you haven’t already, please “like” me on Facebook! It’s easy and free! This week I did my first 3 mile run since hurting my ankle, and it wound up feeling good. I was nervous, as I almost always am before runs, but Glenn gave me a nice pep talk. Sometimes I...
Roast chicken is one of my favorite things to make. It is easy, economical, and delicious. It makes the apartment smell delicious. It gives me the chance to make homemade chicken stock. I just love it. I have heard stories of ladies who roast a chicken for the gentleman they are dating and are engaged...

Glenn is out of town. I’m having fun and keeping myself distracted with really awesome stuff. Awesome stuff like Shark Week, running, and The Bachelorette. Let’s start with Shark Week. One of my favorite weeks ever because, come on, it’s just so fun to watch sharks chomp seals in half, and I can’t turn away...
