I stepped out on the porch today – freshly showered after a hard cycle class – and realized it was warmer outside than it was inside. I think our heat is set on 68 – and my computer says it’s 70 out there, so it’s no wonder! It’s especially pleasant when the sun is shining, [...]

One of my favorite restaurants in Asheville is The Laughing Seed Cafe. It’s a cute vegetarian restaurant with all kinds of tempting dishes. But whenever I go, I always get the Harmony Bowl – a combo of brown rice, beans and veggies with a yummy sauce. Today I had two goals in mind for lunch: [...]
