Long Overdue
Oh my, have I been away from the internets for quite some time, eh? The truth is, I got caught up in all the holiday madness, and have been trying to sort through some other stuff that has been occupying my time quite a bit. This has resulted in a lot of not going to the gym, or cooking, or baking. I’m a believer of the “if you have nothing to blog about, just don’t post” policy. But, the good news is I am back and ready to get something going in this new year.
I had quite the time off and that included getting some awesome White Castle goodies from Amy (and delish cake balls she made!).
I got some pretty sweet Christmas gifts which may have included a beer brewing kit (can’t wait to try it and post about it!).
I spent a few days down south in North Carolina, where I got to hang with my sister Kelly and this little guy.
I went snowboarding, twice. The first day (the day after Christmas) was frustrating, but the last time (Jan 6) was awesome and I spent almost the whole day on a black diamond trail (hooah!). The Sugarloaf, Maine trip is only two weeks away and I cannot wait!
I attended another Girls Just Wanna Have Suds beer pairing event at Victory. This time is was beer and chocolate pairings and my other sister Anna came along. We had a total blast and really enjoyed all the good food and beer!
Good times! I’m now lounging enjoying some coffee courtesy of my sister Kelly from the shop she works at down in NC. I have the NFL playoffs on and will soon be making my way through piles of paperwork I brought home to take care of this weekend. I am planning to restart the Jamie Eason Livefit program tomorrow and will actually follow the no cardio rule (aside from a 5 min warmup on the elliptical or bike). I’m pretty excited to get back into it! Hope everyone has been well. I have been reading, just sort of distracted from commenting. 
It’s good to be back!

Oh heeeeey girl!
I was wondering where you had gone! Glad you’re back!
Thanks!
Welcome back!!!
there you are! well miss pro snowboarder haha. i have only done it 1x and i badly bruised my tail bone. yeowwcch! yeah i go in spurts like that too, i read a lot but don’t really feel like commenting.
Ahahaha I would not call myself a pro, but I am getting much much better each time! I love it.
I am totally jealous of your White Castle lovin—lucky girl! Just curious-where in NC does your sis work? I used to live in Charlotte and a coffee addict so I may have to been to her place.
And a chocolate AND beer pairing? Yeah, I need to find one of those here!
She’s closer to the beaches, so I don’t think you went to her shop. Plus she’s only been down there for a year now. Yeah, the pairing was awesome, but we ordered food after. Not filling enough!
Welcome back! I was hoping that you were okay! I was getting worried! That chocolate and beer event sounded like so much fun! I’m sad that I wasn’t able to go.
It was pretty awesome. You can always email me if you get worried, lol. I’m glad YOU are okay, I was definitely (still am) worried about you, dear. <3
Glad you’re back, I missed you
Hope everything is ok and looking forward to your beer-brewing experimentation…
You have been busy! Glad you’re back!
I’m on Phase 2 of the LiveFit trainer. It’s going… okay. I think.
Glad you’re back – I’ve missed your posts!
There you are! Welcome back!
Whew, wasn’t sure if you snowboarded off a mountain or something…. welcome back!
Thankfully the mountains in PA are not tall enough for that to happen!
Missed you! Happy to see an update. I want to go riding with you one day
Yes! That’d be awesome!
Welcome back! I would love to try snowboarding one day! The beer tasting looks very cool.
Welcome back! And I second that on the “no blogging if I’ve got nothing to say” thing! The beer kit looks like it’ll provide hours of fun and yumminess! Cute pic of you and the sis!
