Books have always held a special spot in my life. From an early age, my mom helped to cultivate a love for reading, and trips to the library were a regular occurrence. I remember wandering the stacks as a kid, creating a massive pile of books I could barely carry yet I was convinced I... Continue Reading →
Saturday’s A Rugby Day
I've spent the past 4 years in the rugby world, and I can attest that rugby players are some of the toughest people in the world. As some descriptions go "it's a hooligan's game played by gentlemen". Rugby keeps it's violence on the field unlike soccer and it doesn't apologize for it like the NFL. The... Continue Reading →

The Pain of Low Back Pain
"Nowadays, most people suffer from low back pain". I still remember a doctor telling me that as he pushed a prescription for pain medication towards me. Didn't do an exam, didn't take any imaging of my back, just prescribed me some meds and called it a day. And sadly, it's true. With how sedentary our... Continue Reading →
Workout Review: Burn Bootcamp
This past weekend we went down to Raleigh for one of K.'s rugby games. Lucky for me, my cousin lives there so we went down a night early for some quality time. Some people may disagree (ok, I know there are people in my life who definitely disagree) but I love to workout wherever I... Continue Reading →
Shopping for Fall
I've mentioned before that I have a "slight" shopping problem (this week alone I've purchased things from RockTape, J.Crew, Lululemon, Amazon and World Rugby Shop) but with the start of October and fall season underway, the itch is stroooong. I have gotten significantly better at impulse shopping and buying on trend. The past few season... Continue Reading →
Bring on the Pumpkin
It may be warm outside, but it's October and I'm having pumpkin chili. Chili is one of my favorite recipes to experiment with in the fall and winter months, and this pumpkin recipe has been a go-to many times. I do love the taste of pumpkin whether it's in my coffee, a baked good, or... Continue Reading →
Hello October
Despite the start of Fall happening a week ago, October is when it really hits. The weather starts turning slightly crisp, like a breath of fresh air after the hot humid summer months. More affectionately known as "sweater weather", Fall is my absolute favorite season and I've already starting planning my pumpkin themed meals (pumpkin... Continue Reading →
The Magic Behind the Curtain
Now that K. and I have been married for a little over 2 weeks, I wanted to highlight the vendors that were the magic behind making our day as seamless as possible. Venue: Walden Hall is a bed & breakfast created by the owners of Bald Top Brewing Co. They opened the B&B with the... Continue Reading →
My 101 List
Its the first full day of Fall and I'm sitting at a friend's farm enjoying a {FINALLY} cool day. As I stated a few posts back, I had 5 goals I wanted to focus on this year. Some I got sidetracked or lost track of, but some I crushed. And this last goal was one... Continue Reading →
