Airports http://wp.me/stOaz-airports One of the happiest places in the world, in my opinion, is the arrival and baggage claim area of an airport. People with signs and flowers wait eagerly for their loved ones to come strolling through the doors from their flights, waiting for an embrace, a… View Post
Just a Little Bit of a Runny Egg
I have fallen in love with my breakfast. 1/2 a baked sweet potato with 2 runny eggs on top. It’s delish. I would have taken a picture, but I never leave time for that when they are done as they seem to apparate into my belly very quickly.
I tried a…

As new continues to develop about the Boston Marathon Bombings, I am reserving my thoughts on this blog because I can’t really write or read about it without crying. As a runner, the Boston Marathon is like the Holy Grail of running. Few compete in it,… View Post

Anyone know how to get oil out of silk or clothes in general? I’m going to google this, but I was hoping someone has a tested way of doing it!
