This was such a great weekend! We had an epic Halloween-themed date night, hung out with all the people, and hit the trails not once but twice! We also managed to do some cleaning, talk finances, and meal prep for the week. Best team ever.

A Long Run + Harper Drinks Rosé?
Happy Total Solar Eclipse Day!
As the moon slowly approaches our line of sight of the sun… I’m recapping my weekend, which was full of wine, running, delicious eats, and a mystery gift for Harper.
Pupdate: A Four-Week Check-in
Happy Monday! This past weekend was Harper’s four-week checkpoint as our new pup. It has felt like 6 months! We knew adopting an 11-week-old puppy would be tough, and we prepared ourselves pretty well, but we still had no idea what we were getting into.
Stripes, Sprouts, and a Waltz
Good morning!
Here’s the first of this week’s experimental blogging. I’m going to commit to one post a day where I combine all the things: food, outfits, workouts, lifestyle-y things, and of course, Harper pupdates!
Weekend Snapshots + A Blog Experiment
Happy Monday!
How was your weekend? Ours was Harper-centric, of course. There is no sleeping in with a 3-month-old pup! We went to puppy school, had tons of play time, and I even snuck in a run. Thank goodness!
Here’s a photo recap (+ a new blog setup for this week!)
Date Night, 3 Amigas, & Outfits of the Week
Everything in One!
Blogging during the workweek is way too hard at the moment, with a tiny pup, a full workday, and nightly rehearsals. Instead, I’ve just been updating one post throughout the week…
The result is that today’s post is long and packed with exciting things!
The Importance of Taste
Just one of our decadent breakfasts this week
We Eat So Well
…and I want to talk about it.
After three or four days of consuming whatever the heck we fancied in Crested Butte—including an assortment of things we don’t usually eat, like ice cream and a bucket of fried chicken—it’s been nice to return to our whole foods-centric lifestyle.
One of my favorite things (there are many) about Nick is his passion for making delicious meals from whole, organic, and nutritious ingredients. He’s really made a believer out of me.
Got Through a Scary Medical Procedure
…Donuts Helped
I’m back! I took a few days off of blogging because I do this for fun, but I’d felt a bit overwhelmed this past week. I was stressed and feeling anxiety about my LEEP procedure on Friday, but turns out, it was a piece of cake (followed by real post-surgery sugaryness).
Here are my thoughts on the experience and a photo recap of the weekend.
Scenes From a Long Run
Before, During, & After
Happy Monday! How was your weekend? We switched things up a bit and did our long runs on Saturday this time around. I’m kind of a fan of the change.
The man had a more intense run on his training schedule—14+ miles of trail at White Ranch Open Space—and I did a solo long run of 9 miles at Wash Park and the surrounding neighborhoods.
I took this opportunity to document everything that happens in the hours prepping for a long run, scenes along the way, and how I decompress/celebrate afterward. Enjoy!
A Dreamy Run Down Rodeo Drive
Palm Trees, Galore
On my second morning waking up in the Beverly Hilton in Los Angeles, my publisher and I went for a sunrise run down the famous Rodeo Drive.
The road (and shopping mecca) was kind of deserted at that hour, making it that much more surreal and wonderful. Check out these gorgeous photos!
