Energy Boost Juice
In the last few years, I’ve learned a few things about going to the gym: 1.) If I go between 7:30 AM and 11:30 AM, the senior population scattered around the place is out of control. And parking? Forget it. 2.) … Continue reading

Cup ‘O Sunshine

Carrot Cake Pancakes with Currants
Today’s Tuesday. We’re two days into the work week. The last two days have brought breakfast for dinner. First, a breakfast burrito larger than my face. Then a pizza topped with hash brown potatoes, Soyrizo, eggs, pesto, and cheese. No … Continue reading
