Thursdays Are For Thinking Out Loud

Serendiptiy & Synchronicity is all around us: TOLT

March 3, 2016March 5, 2016 ~ Chocolaterunsjudy ~ 15 Comments

I'm Thinking Out Loud about serenditpity and synchronicity, because both played a big part in my week in a good way. In my life, actually, as you'll see later in the week. Counting all the steps If you walk without your fitness tracker on, does it count? That moment when you get up to put the wash in … Continue reading Serendiptiy & Synchronicity is all around us: TOLT

My idea of meal prep: TOLT

February 25, 2016February 25, 2016 ~ Chocolaterunsjudy ~ 26 Comments

I'm Thinking Out Loud about meal prep, just a little this week. How most people's idea of meal prep is getting healthy dinners, etc., prepped on the weekend. And my idea of meal prep might be baking. Which just may explain why weight doesn't come off of me easily. The Perfect Curl That's what my husband called it, … Continue reading My idea of meal prep: TOLT

A Week of Weather Whiplash: TOLT

February 18, 2016February 17, 2016 ~ Chocolaterunsjudy ~ 26 Comments

I'm Thinking Out Loud about Mother Nature and our weird weather this week -- not to mention more Lola, a kitchen hack, and how Deena Kastor and I are alike.   Delayed gratification I'm usually the one that gets the mail, since I'm the one that's home. If cards come for my husband for his birthday, I'll … Continue reading A Week of Weather Whiplash: TOLT

Dog videos & paintings & food, oh my!: TOLT

February 11, 2016February 11, 2016 ~ Chocolaterunsjudy ~ 19 Comments

This  Thinking Out Loud is going to get a little active. I'm sharing a couple of videos. Resting is great, until . . . . . . you start doing your laundry again. It's not that I didn't do any laundry last week, but that was one of the ways I rested -- just doing the … Continue reading Dog videos & paintings & food, oh my!: TOLT

Traveling with food so I can enjoy food: TOLT

February 4, 2016February 4, 2016 ~ Chocolaterunsjudy ~ 21 Comments

This week I'm Thinking Out Loud about what a bad daughter I am. I've always believed we ended up moving to NY, at least partially, because my parents were elderly and that made us much closer to them (although it doesn't explain why my inlaws moved away from the east coast to the west coast when we … Continue reading Traveling with food so I can enjoy food: TOLT

Run with my angel: TOLT

January 28, 2016January 28, 2016 ~ Chocolaterunsjudy ~ 13 Comments

This week's  Thinking Out Loud has gone to the dogs! I guess the animals are never very far from my thoughts. Unless I'm shopping or thinking about food.    Thermoballs for dogs Seriously, they should make these! Odds thoughts brought to you from my runs . . . Dogs' Preferences Dogs, like humans, have a dominant side. … Continue reading Run with my angel: TOLT

Dogs are the best yoga gurus: TOLT

January 21, 2016January 20, 2016 ~ Chocolaterunsjudy ~ 22 Comments

Cats are pretty good yoga gurus, too. What is it about yoga that makes your animals think it's a good time to curl up on your back or lap? When it comes to  Thinking Out Loud, yes, Chester is still on my mind. Pretty much every day. Some days I smile wistfully, some days I tear … Continue reading Dogs are the best yoga gurus: TOLT

Finding peace and quiet: TOLT

January 14, 2016January 14, 2016 ~ Chocolaterunsjudy ~ 25 Comments

I consider myself a glass half full gal, for the most part, but my  Thinking Out Loud lately has still been on the sad side . . . it's only been about 2 weeks since we put Chester to sleep, so he's still in my thoughts. A lot. Most of the time I really am okay -- maybe … Continue reading Finding peace and quiet: TOLT

Lola is my new trainer/coach: TOLT

January 7, 2016January 6, 2016 ~ Chocolaterunsjudy ~ 24 Comments

It's another sad  Thinking Out Loud , but there are some funny bits, too. The soup that turned into pasta, and tricking my husband into thinking I'd shoveled a path on the driveway. You've been warned! Pho pasta, anyone? I have a recipe for Pho soup that I really like and have made a few times. What's … Continue reading Lola is my new trainer/coach: TOLT

Is a Healthy S’mores Mug Cake an Oxymoron? TOLT

December 31, 2015December 30, 2015 ~ Chocolaterunsjudy ~ 16 Comments

Today much of my TThinking Out Loud centers around Chester, which I suppose is only natural. Except there was that little side trip into s'mores land . . . Don't search for healthy smores mug cake on Pinterest Trust me on this. It will lead you down a rabbit hole you really don't want to go down … Continue reading Is a Healthy S’mores Mug Cake an Oxymoron? TOLT
