This is a tale of love and loss, fulfillment and heartbreak, happiness and anguish. This is a tale about my first love…at work. You meet a lot of people in the workplace. If you’re lucky, you’ll figure out who the crazy people are right away …
I can’t say enough how much I love those sun-dried tomatoes from Trader Joe’s. I use them in everything – salads, omelettes, sandwiches, vegetable dishes, you name it! I found a great recipe in an issue of Womens Health magazine for a sun-dried tomato pesto …
I know I recently complained about the New Year Resolutioners that crowd my gym every January, and I’m glad to finally be able to say it’s become a little more normal. Now that I can finally work out relatively in peace, I’ve been trying to …
