The Tao of Me

For tonight’s Sunday dinner, I used a recipe from Simply Recipes, one of the food blogs that I follow. Here’s the link to their post of the recipe, but you know how I hate having to click on another link to see the actual recipe, so I’ll copy it here too and add in my [...]

At the start of the weekend I wrote: This weekend, I will run with some friends, attend a big family dinner, swim at the pool, attend more yoga classes than I have all year and have some frozen yogurt.

(As I mentioned in my last post, this week I’ll be recapping some events that happened in the past couple of weeks that I wasn’t able to write about immediately. This is one of them.)
