Two Spock Friday

Last weekend, Hubby and I snuck away for a few hours to finally see the new Star Trek movie. 
 
As far back as I can remember, I’ve always been a Star Trek fan.  As a young child, I would be glued to the television after dinner to watch the Star Trek reruns every week night. 
 
In my [...]

Morning Glory

My running seems to be picking up a bit these days in more ways than one.  For one, I’ve gotten over that lazy slump and now I’m back on track. 
 
My weird toe/foot pain has gone away, as long as I remember to keep my laces loose.

Oscar Mayer’s America’s Frank Feedback

PhotoStory Friday: Baby Got Back

Five Minutes for Fitness: Noggin Workout

Rainy days usually bring a lot of television viewing in our house.  I’m not proud of the fact that I use Noggin and Nick Jr. to entertain my children on rainy days, but some times a mom can only play so many rounds of Candy Land and Hi Ho Cherry-O.
 
Too much television will cause my [...]

McSorley’s Old Ale House

As I mentioned in my NYC post, McSorley’s Old Ale House is the oldest ale house in the NYC.  They’ve even got the dust to prove it. 
 

 

 
The only alcoholic beverages served at this historic tavern are light and dark ale.  Allan and I preferred the dark ale for its smooth chocolate flavor without a bitter [...]
