Bottled Ponderings: The Baking Girl: Oreo Cookies
http://bottledponderings.blogspot.com/2015/05/the-baking-girl-oreo-cookies.html
12/Year Monthly Photo Diary 2013. Sunday, May 31, 2015. The Baking Girl: Oreo Cookies. Has been busy in the kitchen despite the absence of baking posts here. Part of the reason is that I gave up sugar for Lent so I ignored her baking! I don't think I could have given up sugar if it wasn't Lent. And there I was thinking it was such a paltry sacrifice since I am not a big sugar fan (or at least it's not my comfort food). So wrong. So in denial. Coffee without sugar? Have you eaten oatmeal with no sugar?

Bottled Ponderings: Go Big Or Go Home
http://bottledponderings.blogspot.com/2015/06/go-big-or-go-home.html
12/Year Monthly Photo Diary 2013. Friday, June 19, 2015. Go Big Or Go Home. Remember that excited post about a quiet Summer with no sports? Not as much as I should. I have forgotten how tediously amusing it could be. The good thing is that the seven-year-old seems to be having fun. He looks forward to every game and "trains" with the older brothers. For that alone I could live through the tedium. Remember when I said I don't run? My training buddy is my oldest son. He will probably run with us in Veg...

Bottled Ponderings: The Couch To 5K Running Chronicles: The Playlist
http://bottledponderings.blogspot.com/2015/07/the-couch-to-5k-running-chronicles_24.html
12/Year Monthly Photo Diary 2013. Friday, July 24, 2015. The Couch To 5K Running Chronicles: The Playlist. In a couple of days we will be running my dreaded part of Couch to 5K - a twenty minute run with no walking! My brain is ready and so is my i-pod. I just hope my feet will follow my brain and get carried away with the music. We didn't run with music until this week after a friend on Facebook suggested I create a playlist (hi Joyce! Not What You See - Kutless. Every Good Thing - The Afters. Steady - ...

12/Year Monthly Photo Diary 2013. Thursday, January 29, 2015. The Baking Girl: Apple Pie Bites and Parmesan Herb Bread. Apple goodness in pictures -. Standard apple pie filling recipe. Cutting out the (store-bought) crust to size using a small bowl as guide. Crust and filling into the mini-muffin pan - bake at 350 for about 25 minutes. Perfect for little hands with big appetites. Another fine job by The Baking Girl. Links to this post. Labels: The Baking Girl. Wednesday, January 14, 2015. Almost there...

Bottled Ponderings: February 2015
http://bottledponderings.blogspot.com/2015_02_01_archive.html
12/Year Monthly Photo Diary 2013. Wednesday, February 25, 2015. Why do I complain about the silliest things? To celebrate this epiphany of sorts I decided to declare a snow day. We packed our sleds and skates to take advantage of the best of Ohio winter. It's play time for my kids but it's a time of renewal for me. I needed the fresh air to soothe my foggy brain and I needed the beauty of nature to remind me that I am nothing ( I mean that in a good way! Pictures to share as I am in danger of rambling!

Bottled Ponderings: The Couch to 5K Running Chronicles: The End Is Near
http://bottledponderings.blogspot.com/2015/08/the-couch-to-5k-running-chronicles-end.html
12/Year Monthly Photo Diary 2013. Sunday, August 2, 2015. The Couch to 5K Running Chronicles: The End Is Near. Last week we ran a full twenty minutes with no walking. Today, the last day of week six, we ran twenty two minutes with no walking. I barely recognize myself. I can no longer claim to be a couch potato. That's a good thing, right? Week seven is running for 25 minutes, week eight 28 minutes and finally, week nine - running for 30 minutes. People, I wasn't running six weeks ago! Labels: Couch to 5K.

Bottled Ponderings: August 2015
http://bottledponderings.blogspot.com/2015_08_01_archive.html
12/Year Monthly Photo Diary 2013. Monday, August 24, 2015. The Couch To 5K Running Chronicles: Consummatum Est. As of yesterday evening, I officially completed Couch to 5K. It was an awesome final week. I ran by myself, sort of. The running buddy injured his heel (not running-related) so he rode his bike to keep me company. It worked out really well, he kept time as usual and cheered me through the whole thing. Okay maybe second only to Body Beast. I looked forward to lacing up my shoes on running da...

Bottled Ponderings: The Couch To 5K Running Chronicles: The 80's/Bossa Nova/New Wave Playlist
http://bottledponderings.blogspot.com/2015/08/the-couch-to-5k-running-chronicles_7.html
12/Year Monthly Photo Diary 2013. Friday, August 7, 2015. The Couch To 5K Running Chronicles: The 80's/Bossa Nova/New Wave Playlist. We had a running epiphany. We love running at night! I took my new playlist on a test-run today. I felt like I was in high-school all over again minus the drama lol. Arguably the 80's had some of the best music. I grew up in a very musical culture so my ears (and soul! Without further ado, I present you my 80's running playlist - as always, if you want the Spotify link do l...
