The Awkward Olive: Resting Pose
http://awkwardolive.blogspot.com/2012/12/resting-pose.html
Embracing the everyday encounters that give life a little flavor. Monday, December 10, 2012. In yoga, we rest on our right side. To honor and protect our hearts. At your place, we sleep on our right sides,. Me the little spoon, you the big. To be this close, breathing together, tangled up. Holding each other, arms and legs …. I keep telling myself we sleep this way. So we can silently drift off. To late night tv…. But really, I’d like to think. We sleep this way,. You and me,. Tayler A. Brisbin 2012.

The Awkward Olive: August 2012
http://awkwardolive.blogspot.com/2012_08_01_archive.html
Embracing the everyday encounters that give life a little flavor. Sunday, August 26, 2012. Tomatillos: The taste of summertime. If there is one thing that tastes like summer, it is salsa verde. It’s the perfect hot weather food, it’s super easy to make, and it just tastes fresh and green! Its pretty much my go to food in the summer. I make it for snacks and gatherings, and I put it on everything. Chips, eggs, meat, cous-cous,. I was half expecting them to bite the dust,. Since I have tomatillos in abunda...

The Awkward Olive: Reflecting and looking forward
http://awkwardolive.blogspot.com/2012/12/reflecting-and-looking-forward.html
Embracing the everyday encounters that give life a little flavor. Saturday, December 29, 2012. Reflecting and looking forward. As 2012 quickly draws to a close, I’ve been spending a lot of time reflecting. It’s so funny how this time of year people seem to get caught up in setting resolutions, getting fit, deciding that this next year is going to be the year! It’s almost like getting a do-over if I’m totally slacking…. I’ll try not to bring everyone down with my pretty much constant state of glum&#...

The Awkward Olive: April 2012
http://awkwardolive.blogspot.com/2012_04_01_archive.html
Embracing the everyday encounters that give life a little flavor. Wednesday, April 25, 2012. Full disclosure: I'm a huge nerd. Full disclosure: Essentially every time I cook something, I pretend I’m on Top Chef. Sometimes I just imagine that I’m having the judges over for dinner, and I wow them with my simple peasant style dishes. Seriously, nerd alert. Fresh mozzarella, semi decent tomatoes, a little basil, black flake salt, a drizzle of olive oil and vinegar. Sunday, April 22, 2012. Would you be mine?

The Awkward Olive: November 2012
http://awkwardolive.blogspot.com/2012_11_01_archive.html
Embracing the everyday encounters that give life a little flavor. Tuesday, November 20, 2012. This year, my mother suggested that my brother & sister-in-law make the yams (using my recipe). I’m still trying to wrap my head around this one… if it’s the same yams, why don’t I just make them, and they make a different dish? 8221; –. Or maybe I’ll over-indulge and try them two ways… hopefully next year I’m still allowed to bring a real dish and am not reduced to beverage duty! And also here are the Winkenwed...

The Awkward Olive: October 2012
http://awkwardolive.blogspot.com/2012_10_01_archive.html
Embracing the everyday encounters that give life a little flavor. Sunday, October 21, 2012. I’m having one of those glorious fall mornings, where I laid in bed and just listened to the rain. I slept in, ate leftovers for breakfast, snuggled with the bulldog, and lingered over multiple cups of coffee. As I ate bites of stuffed pepper (thank you Janet! I skimmed through one of my favorite cookbooks, trying to find the perfect muffins to make for breakfast tomorrow, and I took a few moments to just be.

The Awkward Olive: January 2012
http://awkwardolive.blogspot.com/2012_01_01_archive.html
Embracing the everyday encounters that give life a little flavor. Monday, January 30, 2012. Because I wish I was more likely to meet a guy on a yoga mat, rather than at a bar. Last night while surfing the web I stumbled across an on-line article entitled “ 5 Reasons Why Dudes Should Practice Yoga. Maybe this is just wishful thinking on my part… but to some degree isn’t that how people start dating? Is it really so crazy to think that I might meet my someone at a yoga class? In the meantime, I’m goi...

The Awkward Olive: March 2012
http://awkwardolive.blogspot.com/2012_03_01_archive.html
Embracing the everyday encounters that give life a little flavor. Monday, March 26, 2012. I'm in a Spring Break State of Mind. Lately I have been feeling completely uninspired in my yoga practice. It’s a little hard to actually say that out loud, because as a yoga teacher, you want to be able to help and inspire your students! And its not for a lack of trying… I have been involved in some incredibly wonderful community building, totally inspiring yoga practices over the past few weeks! It’s everyma...
