The Battle of the Bulge: TOLT

February 23, 2017February 23, 2017 ~ Chocolaterunsjudy ~ 9 Comments

Today I'm Thinking Out Loud about how I seem to fight the battle of the bulge every winter. Do I suffer from some mild SADD? Yes, absolutely. Am I less physically active? Probably. Even though I am running way more miles than I normally do in winter, it's just harder to get in extra activity when you're … Continue reading The Battle of the Bulge: TOLT

Crispy, new tricks: TOLT

February 16, 2017 ~ Chocolaterunsjudy ~ 14 Comments

I don't have any crispy new tricks for you, that was just my way of Thinking Out Loud and trying to lure you in. Did it work? Just give me crispy! Apparently if a menu item has crispy in the description -- sweet or savory -- I'm all over it. I love my sushi with "crispy" in … Continue reading Crispy, new tricks: TOLT

Who needs dumbells . . : TOLT

February 9, 2017February 8, 2017 ~ Chocolaterunsjudy ~ 18 Comments

. . . when you have cast iron? Yes, I'm  Thinking Out Loud about cast iron pans. And laundry. Raised hackles. Body envy. Definitely random thoughts this Thursday! Why is laundry so complicated? Don't machine dry, but don't hang it to dry -- you really need to dry it flat. Machine wash, but don't you dare machine … Continue reading Who needs dumbells . . : TOLT

. . . the world coming to an end today. It is already tomorrow in Australia. -- Charles M. Schulz I don't consider myself a worrywart, but like anything, I worry about some things. Often things in the future. And usually, when all is said and done, there wasn't really anything to worry about. But first, … Continue reading Don’t worry about . . .: TOLT

The 12 paws test: TOLT

January 26, 2017January 26, 2017 ~ Chocolaterunsjudy ~ 14 Comments

Clothes, furkids, affirmations, a chance for a free race entry, and the scale, oh my! Another random Thinking Out Loud. Carefully choosing my clothes I make no secret of the fact that I'm a fashionista. I love clothes, and I love combining clothes into outfits; I love sparkle and soft, biker chic and a little bit … Continue reading The 12 paws test: TOLT

Are you functionally fit?: TOLT

January 19, 2017January 18, 2017 ~ Chocolaterunsjudy ~ 19 Comments

Today is Thinking Out Loud at is best: a truly random sampling of what's swirling around in my head. Little things that puzzle me. Bigger things like selling the home I grew up in. And Bandit, of course. Can you get up off the floor? Without using your hands? Supposedly this is a measure of how long … Continue reading Are you functionally fit?: TOLT
