I went to Atlanta with my friend Jessica this past Friday. It was a quick overnight jaunt to visit the Atlanta Mart to see how Count Me Healthy jewelry is displayed in our showroom. Since this was such a short trip, we got by using small carry-ons. We actually got a water bottle past security (on accident of course), but it made me think of 1) the time I got MACE past security (again on accident) and 2) the times…
sl ‘AAP’ happy (Part 1)
I named this post slAAP happy because if I add another APP to my iPhone somebody should slap me. Seriously. How many more apps do I need? Hmmm… let’s see: Army Survival Guide (which tells me useful information such as how many gallons of water I need to stay hydrated in the Mohave desert. If I’m in need of this information I’m already doomed and my iPhone has already melted in my hand). But I wanted to share with you…
Joe or No Joe?
So, I haven’t blogged in a while but I’m back and ready to write! I wanted to tackle a topic that the health community goes back and forth on almost as much as ‘margarine or butter?’ COFFEE: TO DRINK OR NOT TO DRINK? It’s 6 AM and I’m enjoying an amazing cup of Green Mountain ‘Dark Magic’ from my Keurig single-cup brewer (the darling stand out gift of Christmas ’09)…. So, I’m telling you right up front that if I…
Count Me Healthy Cocktail of the Month: The “Chelsea Chiller”
Welcome! So this is the first cocktail in our “Count Me Healthy Cocktail,” series that will run monthly. I debated whether I should blog about this particular cocktail because it is like, top secret (well, I guess not anymore). It is my go-to drink and I don’t know how the hell I came up with it (like all great things, I guess through experimentation). I didn’t name it the Chelsea Chiller because I love myself, but because it actually helps…
A Perfect Circle for Better Thighs
I’ve taken Pilates for about seven years now. I admit that recently, based on my insane schedule, I’ve had to take a break from lessons with my instructor, Crystal. I miss her company, discipline and toned arms! However, this doesn’t mean I’ve given up on doing “hundreds” exercises or Stott breathing for better abs. I’ve also kept up some other exercises using a very inexpensive piece of equipment that can be incorporated into any home gym–a Pilates circle. This circle…
80/20 Shopping in NYC… Plus Some Fave Shopping Spots!
People say that you wear 20% of your clothes 80% of the time. They’ve even come out with a brand called 80/20 based on this ratio. So, what better way to justify a recent shopping trip in NYC than to say I scored some “practical” pieces I can wear time and time again. Dare I even say “economical” if you divide how many times I wear them by retail price (proof that ANYTHING can be justified)! Oh, and I threw…
