It’s been almost three weeks since my last post! I’m not dead, I promise. So just a small update!

I’ve been swamped with personal stuff, work stuff, and finishing up my semester for my Master’s degree. The good news is that I am 60% done my course work and well on track to be finished this time next year!

Mr. Foodie and I have also been preoccupied with our new hobby: road cycling. We made the investment in two beautiful Trek road bikes and it is SO much fun! Here’s my beauty! 

I’m planning a cross border shopping trip to load up on essentials buy stuff I really want but probably don’t need. i.e. a Vitamix blender. A haul of spices from Penzeys. And a load of cheese from Cabot.  Some things are just so much cheaper to buy in the USA than here in Canada!  We’ll also be heading to Vermont for another foodcation.

The keen eyed among you will notice that I’ve had a “I’m doing the Whole 30!” badge up for quite a while. I completed 29/30 days of the Whole 30 in June. I felt great. Then I went on vacation to the East coast. Then I ate my feelings while dealing with a lot of stress. Shameful.

For the month of August, I am doing the Whole 30 once again! This time, Mr. Foodie is also doing it with me (sorta… he’s already cheated!)

Another goal of mine is to redecorate this blog into something more visually appealing… I love the bacon, but it’s kind of boring around here! I’m going to look into more themes, so if anyone wants to volunteer to design me a custom Word Press template, let me know. Ha. I’ll probably end up just buying one!

I promise to post more this month, now that I’ve found some more time!
