Today the rain let up a little bit! Thank goodness! I think you can almost see some blue skies reflecting in my coffee! Those blue skies might have inspired me a little bit too much! Today I signed up for this: The Warrior Dash. It is basically a 3.5 mile race with ten intense obstacles along the way! My friend Nicole talked me into it. It is a month after my half marathon. I'm thinking it will keep me motivated after I've reached that goal. I can't wait to think up some fun ideas for costumes! Any ideas?!
How about a book update since thats why most of you probably click to read about!
Book Update 05: Grow Great Grub by Gayla Trail
This was a birthday present from my gardening-partner-sister-in-law! (You should check out her blog: Sow Mama Sow!) Its all about organic gardening in small spaces. I skimmed most of the veggies, but look forward to using it as a reference as our garden continues to sprout and grow!

Today was a tough day with the no eating chocolate thing! Not only did I have to go through my usual cravings, but a lady thanked me today and handed me a Hershey's Kiss and said "Happy early St. Paddy's Day!" I gave it back and explained the lent situation. To be honest I don't eat loosely wrapped candy given to me by strangers anyways, but it just reminded me that I can't have it! There was a time in my life when Hershey's kisses could have been considered my kryptonite, thankfully I did get over that addiction!!
Lent always reminds me that I DO have self control. Every year I give something up and stick with it! I just think that I MUST have chocolate (or diet coke or ice cream, or beer) to survive. If I put my mind to something I can do it!!!
Thanks for the shout out! I love the food diary!!
