Guys. I am almost too tired to write one last recap post. Everybody else did a glorious job. And once those are all compiled, I will give you the link to read everybody else’s posts. Because there are some really hilarious recaps out there.
Sunday morning we woke up again for some boot camp action. [...]
First of all … I have to show you what I found yesterday. I was totally excited about this and I feel a bit silly.
There’s a bird making a nest in one of my lanterns. I’m cool with this because I’ve never used the lanterns and I’m glad that somebody found a use for [...]
I’m obsessing over quinoa. Now I’m even eating it for breakfast. Read on for the recipe.
Happy St. Patty’s day! I’m not a bit Irish, but I like greens.
I went to my chiropractor yesterday and she was giving away attempting to give away green smoothies to everybody who came in for an appointment. I can’t remember what kind of greens she was using, but they were similar to [...]
In case you’re curious about these Star Wars pancake molds … don’t waste your time or money.
Maybe it’s just my pancake flipping skills, but …
They started off okay. But quickly went downhill. This one [...]
Mark and I started dating on October 29, 2009. And today is the first time we’ve had a month-i-versary in February because it’s the first leap year since we’ve been dating.
We don’t celebrate month-i-versaries, but we sometimes do use it as an excuse to do something fun, go out for dinner or do something [...]
Meet my latest obsession: Quinoa.
[ look how pretty it looks with some black and white mixed together! ]
It’s nutty. It’s different. It’s filling. It’s awesome.
Mostly eaten with savory foods, quinoa is often overlooked for breakfast.
But look at this? Doesn’t this look yummy? Trust me. It does.
I’ve been obsessing over smoothies. Big time. One every day for breakfast. I keep this one for the weekend because sometimes bananas give me stomachaches, but it is SO worth the tummy ache for this smoothie.
Chocolate Banana Smoothie
1 frozen banana
5 ice cubes
2 T cocoa (unsweetened)
1 scoop whey [...]
We bought some English muffin bread a while back at the farmers’ market, but I thought I’d see about making some on my own.
I’ve been making this weekly for the past month so Mark can make his egg sandwiches for breakfast. And I’ve been working on making it better [...]
I finally figured out how to make an omelette, thanks to the internet. I’ve made several before, but none that were that pretty. All delicious. Didn’t look good.
So I made an onion, spinach, tomato and goat cheese omelette. With a side of bacon grease baking powder biscuits. And yeah. Those are [...]

Hi there. I'm Calee. Not Caylee. Also known as chimes or the chimes. I'm 27, a designer, a runner, a self-proclaimed fitness queen, a craftster, a foodie, a music snob — some might call me a hipster. Here's the unabridged version.
