heading out for a run! short but sweet run! gooooo teamies!

Nice job! I got mine in too!

*off to a nice start TOPpage*

heading out for a short 20 min run...this is a taper week...for my big race this weekend! ;_)

GOOD LUCK!!!!

GO Julie Toppage!!!

Thanks Katie!!!! I just found out it is supposed to be colder then usual...so here is that layering thing while running...but still will probably underdress rather then over for this dont want to haul a bunch of clothing around my waist and sure dont want to overheat...

although I did just read that any clothes that you throw to the side will be picked up and donated to shelters near by....thats nice! but not sure Im ready to donate my zoot jacket...

I'm facing the same situation. It's supposed to be low 40s at race start. Bought a cheapo $5 long sleeve shirt at wal-mart that I will be donating

man...I need a Walmart near me...cant tell you the last time I got a LONG sleeve shirt for $5. We have a came-apart near by...but I dare not go there....last time I had to kick my way thru the store! it was a MeSsSsSsSsSssSS!

I usually try to avoid the place. Lot's of scaaaary people in there, even in the daylight. But when you need something cheap you gotta do what you gotta do.

thats what I hear...my moms car was stolen at a Walmart....she and my sister parked thier cars right next to each other...went in and shopped...they came out...put the stuff in my sisters car...and then both realized...HEY wheres your car....... POOR MOM...she was besides herself. Luckily they found it a few days later and it was not stripped....looks as though someone just needed a ride and fast! DURN THIEVES!

Yikes! That has to be shocker. Glad things turned out (reasonably) okay!

Yeah...me too! she is still driving that same little honda suv!

if so, I will share with you what I just made...some ghiradelli chocolate brownies...I do mine a little different...I take half the batter and place it in the glass brownie pan...(9 x 13) then I add 1 cup chopped pecans, 1 cup butterscotch chips, 1 cup coconut, and some extra chocolate chips....like you really need them! haha....then I add the rest of the batter to the top...dont worry if it doesnt cover it....cook it like brownies...and MMMMMMMMMMMMMMM I will share if you will! these are for after our run on Sunday...but I have a few to spare!

my Nestles Toll House seem awfully chinzy compared to those INCREDIBLE BROWNIES....

but if your sharing.....

yumm-O
stacieb

come-n-get-it! making lasagna to carbo load with....making a spinach lasagne and a ground turkey lasagne....might as well come and have dinner...then I will drizzle some chocolate on the plate...all perdy and all...and then I will take a nice warmed up brownie...place it on the chocolate drizzles...add some ice cream...a small dallup of whip cream and wella....my brownie a la mode! SHOOT I MAY NEED TO RUN A MARATHON!!!

Can I stop by for some brownie a la mode after my marathon tomorrow? Sounds delicious! But I better start off with some lasagne first

just like electrici-dee's dog name....COME n GET it! you are sooo welcome! you may have to take the red-eye to get to the start line in time for your marathon...but you are sooooo welcome!

GOOOOOD LUCK ON YOUR MARATHON~~~

hope your volunteers are set up a little better then this:

A low country boil is crab, oyster, clams, corn on the cob and potatoes all steamed (or boiled but I prefer steamed) together with crab boil spices. You do it in a huge caldron. Everyone stands along the picnic table (outside for sure) and holds the edge of the table cloth up. The contents of the caldron is then thrown along the table like a sluice. Everyone procedes to eat and drink beverage of choice, usually beer but I am a wine person.

HELLO GHOULIES.

just a quick buzz through....

too gorgeous of a day to be sitting here at the computer.

hopin' the dh gets back from the skate park soon, i wanna go to the Strip District (NO, not THAT sorta Strip District) to get some hummus, and vegetables, and all sorts of other delicious treats.

but, wanted to drop into to report that i did a 40 min tempo run today. yippy skippy.

4 weeks out, a lot can happen (good and bad)

just gonna keep crackalacking. not push it. let my body do what its gonna do.

we shall see about the rest.

so.....thats leaves me to my beautiful day.

RUN HAPPY GHOULIES (you especially JULES. mwah)
