Is running the golden ticket . . .
. . . to weight loss? Yes. No. Maybe. Some runners have won the genetic lottery: all they have to do is run (or start running) and the weight just melts off. It's usually not quite that simple for the rest of us. Abs are made in the kitchen No doubt you've heard that abs … Continue reading Is running the golden ticket . . .
It’s a small world after all
Esoteric: intended for or likely to be understood by only a small number of people with a specialized knowledge of interest There are a few things that interest me that are esoteric: they are things you cannot understand unless you have experienced them.

It Was Me All Along (book review)

I love you, now go away: Spilling over high tea
