Crossfit and Cupcakes: Seven Months Later

As the title suggests, it's been 7 months since I posted to my blog. I was never really sure why I started a blog but it sound like fun at the time. When people see a blog, they feel entitled to know MORE than what you really want to share. I work on the need to know basis. Today, I will post a few things that I think you 'need to know' ......

September 9 is my birthday! It's been a great day - I have nothing to complain about except getting older. But age is just a number. I got to have my cake and eat it too.... I actually got 2 cakes. I'm one lucky girl!

I also got a Hot Dog and Bun Toaster. I've wanted this since I saw it in the Sky Mall magazine in 1989. I will post about its functionality in the future. All signs point to the fact it will not cook the hotdog but thoroughly burn the bun.

Someone who doesn't burn the bun is Bones' Burgers. I had the best birthday burger for lunch today from my favorite burger truck. If you haven't tried it, you need to get there before the end of the season. Not only is the food ~~good~~ great, but Bones (aka Curtis Bonekemper) is genuinely a nice person. He doesn't take life too seriously and always promotes a fun atmosphere. And, he knows how to make a burger!

My goal for the next year is to change my terrible eating habits! They really hampered my ability to run this weekend when I was part of a Market to Market relay team. Me and seven friends ran a relay from Milford to Dayton. I had an eye-opening experience on my second leg when I thought I was going to die..... it was extremely hot, full sun, no breeze and I was out of water. At that moment, I realized something had to change. Luckily, or not, I had about an hour to myself to think about it.
