Juicy!

August 30, 2011 | allison

So. I’m into juicing now. Well ok, yesterday I bought a juicer and I’m on my second juice. So, I’m totally into juicing. For reals yo.  It’s been one day and I scoff at junk food.  I can feel the power and energy of sweet vegetables coursing through my veins… It may be psychological at

travel tuesday (albania)

August 30, 2011October 31, 2011 | allison

This photo was taken on July 3, 2008 in Albania.  While it maybe isn’t the most technically perfect image, I love it anyway.  The Albania country side is dotted with these concrete bunkers (700,000 of them); remnants from the communist regime.  Now, they don’t serve much more purpose than  looking exceptionally cute (probably not the

Goodbye Table :(

August 25, 2011August 25, 2011 | allison

I talked to my mom on the phone last night. She told me I need to blog more. She’s right, but after so many false starts over the last couple of months, it is kind of embarrassing to come back and expect you to like me just as much. Like one of my favourite food

travel tuesday (bolivia 2)

August 23, 2011October 31, 2011 | allison

This photo was taken on March 28, 2009 in Southwest Bolivia.  It features a whole bunch of good things like mountains, a soda lake, amazing grass, and llamas.  (See, I told you was going to feature more animals!)  I love the composition and the colour in this image, yet another goody (see the first one,

travel tuesday (greece)

August 16, 2011October 31, 2011 | allison

This photo was taken on June 23, 2008 in Santorini, Greece.  I love this image, the tone makes me swoon, its dreamy.  Whenever I look at it I think about being some other than here.  I love it so much that this picture has been shortlisted on end up on our walls – humongous styles

travel tuesday (uganda)

August 9, 2011October 31, 2011 | allison

This photo (of an extremely rare mountain gorilla!!!) was taken on October 25, 2008 in Bwindi Imprenetrable National Park in Uganda.  And yes, we were that close.  (For the photo geeks out there, this was zoomed into 90mm on a 1.6x crop factor sensor, so it is the equivalent of about 150mm of zoom.) I

Dear Running:

August 7, 2011November 19, 2011 | allison

Dear Running: It’s been awhile, so I thought I would check in and see how you’ve been. I’m a little embarrassed about just how long it’s been — but you hurt me — worse than I thought you did at the time. And it took a long time for me to get over it. And

fruit flies

August 6, 2011August 6, 2011 | allison

Yes. I know. It’s been weeks and weeks and weeks since I posted a “real” blog post – or at least one with lots of words. And my first post back is about fruit flies. I apologize. It’s been crazy since mid-June. So, before I talk about fruit flies, let me tell you just how

travel tuesday (himba 2)

August 2, 2011October 31, 2011 | allison

This photo was taken on September 15, 2008, once again at the Himba orphanage in Namibia.  If you’ve been following along for awhile, you may remember this picture of the world’s most adorable baby that I posted about three months ago.  Since then, I’ve been planning on sharing my “Angelina Jolie” moment with you.  When
