Loyal readers will know how much I enjoy sheet pan recipes, so this week I tried a new recipe that I'm calling Sheet Pan Veggie Soup. I'm considering this month the start of my Veggie Challenge 2023, since my garden vegetables are really in their prime! The ingredients are the left over vegetables that are getting a little tired from staying in my refrigerator. Namely, the cauliflower that was given to me by my daughter and a huge pepper from our garden. I hadn't been in the mood to eat these earlier and I wanted to use them before they got too tired. So I turned on the over to 425 degrees and lined a cookie sheet with tin foil. I chopped the cauliflower, carrots, and onion...

Keeping Flexible – Muscles, Joints, and Ligaments

It's amazing what a few of the right exercises done consistently can do for keeping flexible! Before you read any further, please know I am not a doctor or am I prescribing any medical advice. Everyone is in a different place with flexibility, so know your own body and proceed slowly if you feel resistance and stop if you feel pain. You should just feel mild tension. Recently I've been gently doing finger, hand and shoulder exercises to carefully stretch and limber up my fingers. I don't pretend to be near as flexible or nimble as this cat, but I have seen a significant improvement lately. I've been working on my hands, shoulders and neck. Too much time on my computer and working on my phone has caused...

During the recent conference I was eating at restaurants in the hotel for 5 days. How did I keep up with healthy eating choices? Healthy eating at the hotel this week has been a challenge! This past week Jill and I attended a giant podcasters' conference in Denver where we learned from the best in the industry. The conference was held at the Gaylord Rockies, a HUGE hotel with 7 different restaurants & bars with hundreds of hotel rooms.Located in the prairie outside of Aurora, it is a ten minute Uber ride from the Denver Airport and far away from any other restaurants. We were pretty much limited to the food that we could buy in the hotel and a few excursions off the hotel grounds. I realized...

Fit and Strong, Fitness, Work Outs

I’ve decided to check out new gyms around me and possibly make a change. I’m not sure if this is a good decision or not but wanted to see what’s out there. Maybe this is a “grass is always greener” scenario, I’m not sure. I put my regular membership at my gym on hold for a couple of months to give me time to check out other places. I’ve gone a cost-cutting phase and thought perhaps I could spend less on my gym. Plus, it seemed like a good idea to check out new places. I've belonged to this current gym for a long time so I've become very comfortable there. I’ve been to a couple of gyms so far. Here’s what I’ve discovered. The first gym I...
