WORKOUT -
Ran outside in Phoenix in the rain!
7.0 miles/54 mins
flat, cool weather
I never knew it was even possible to rain in Phoenix. (Some rain running tips are here.)
Just some randomness off my phone and the interwebs…
{Facebook pic: Costco, I hate you and your amazing cream cheese frosting that is basically pro-cellulite cream.}
{Sunset in Arizona. No filter because I’m an amazing phone photographer. yup. The things I do and the art I capture with a Samsung Galaxy S3…}
{Check out my new phone cover: it’s called Packing Tape and a Tile Floor. oops.}
{Whichwich salad eaten at In-n-Out because I’m rogue like that. Whichwich salads kill other fast food salads – so many veggies and meat on it. even sauerkraut.}
{Elmer stretched out trying to avoid tight hip muscles. For those of you who want to know, he’s a German short hair wire haired pointer. I think. And no, he doesn’t have piriformis. I mean, look at that stretch.}
{Watching the Mariners at Spring Training play the Milwaukie Brewers and lose 7-6.}
{Root beer float lollipop at the game. Peanuts, schmeenuts.}
{My older brother B bought my parents this Breville juice press for Christmas and it’s pretty amazing. It’s really quiet, easy to use and super easy to clean. I’m not a juice drinker, but my parents are…}
{They pick oranges from neighbors’ trees, juice them and freeze the extra juice to drink later on. They say fresh squeezed is like a million times better than store bought.}
{They even get grapefruit and add that to the orange juice. Talk about living off the land… someone else’s land. And no, they don’t ask permission. They go in the middle of the night with ski masks and pantyhose. I kid, I kid.}
{Saw this KitchenAid Stand Mixer in the in-flight magazine on the plane ride home today. saucy.}
{This babe and I did a little relaxing at the pool yesterday. I didn’t get to relax too much since I had to fend off all the canes and walkers trying to lay the smack down on my ma.}
{Proof that pimping knows no age limits. This old G, probably the original gangster, even had the shoulder lean going on.}
{Wore my new duds on the plane ride home. Gotta be looking fly for my man… need to stop hanging out in Sun City…}

He’s a German Wirehaired Pointed but who cares? He sure is cute! I tried to talk my husband in to adding one to our family but he refuses to add another dog. Rosemary is a GSP and basically has no hair, which poses a problem running in the winter in Iowa!
yeah youre right, i always say short hair but its not.

Happy weekend!
Okay, I am officially copying your mom’s freeze-the-oranges idea. I would save so much money! I buy those huge bags of clementines and I usually throw out three or four when they get old…instead I can freeze them and make juice! Thank you SR
Your outfit is too cute!! I love it
My phone photos are all my baby girl of course! Got a cute one of her at the office today to celebrate our last day at work, hello maternity leave! ; )
Oh no! Isn’t that a newish phone? I’m just counting the days until mine looks like that. Ugh.
Yeah i just got it in november.
We don’t have any Whichwich’s in MI. Or any In-N-Out’s. That makes me sad.
Ramblings of a Suburban Mom
Busted my iPhone yesterday. Totally blows.
Blew a little less after I are one if those carrot cake muffin turd things today….Damn Costco coupon book. I do it for the dollar off.
I had no idea which wich made salads! We just got one next to my work and I thought it was only super big subs. I’ll have to check them out!
I’m totally that girl that walks into another restaurant with my own food from somewhere else. No shame. I wish I was in the sun these days… wishful thinking
Pictures of my dogs

More pictures of my dogs
A song on my XM radio display
A melting snow man – taken just today.
Aside from the dog photos, the melting snowman is my fav!
Oh no, your phone! I keep thinking mine is going to look like that soon. I bought mine in September and have dropped it at least once a week since then. Thankfully, my phone case has done a great job of protecting it!
We have been having insane weather in Phoenix this winter. It “snowed” a few weeks ago. Today, it hailed. It was 77* for my Wednesday evening run, it was 52* for my evening run tonight – crazy! People are starting to worry what kind of extreme summer we’re gonna have with this extreme winter!
That mixer is … I have no words.
Suddenly, my “stainless steel silver” one seems pretty darn boring…
Cream cheese frosting is most def pro-celluite. But so damn good.
I saw those cupcakes at Costco yesterday and had to restrain myself from buying them.
Your mom is so cute. That’s awesome that you got some girl time with her. I’m headed to Tucson in a few days to see my dad and warm up. Recent picture on my phone is of my Golden Retriever sleeping on top of my husband as if he were as small as Marni, only he is about 80 pounds bigger!
A Mediterranean Plate looking all healthy next to my pint of Guiness.
The beach in winter after race to restore the Jersey Shore.
My very untan legs sporting my marathon purple ProCompression socks.
My students’ projects. (So proud!)
Ahhh sucks about your phone! Semi new too, huh?? I need some vitamin D in my life!!
My husband is a Lemon Bandit. And he uses those same white trash bags with the red pull-handles.
My favorite phone photos this week are of General Grievous on top of a birthday cake. And also those of a bunch of crazy turkeys that roam around a neighboring city.
My three year old took random pictures of his own feet. There’s also some pictures of the baby with a fake mustache on.
Lots of foodie pics today – brekkie was a local “kueh”/crepe (“Ketayap” – palm/brown sugar dessicated coconut filling) and lunch was Old Town’s peanut butter thick toast.

Looks like you had a great time with your parents.
Shocking Post for 2 reasons! 1. Your Whichwich has salads… is this new? I wonder if mine will be following. And 2. You can freeze juice? I need to be a more proactive freezer (or a proactive person who freezes stuff).
I actually love running in the rain… well I love it afterwards. Like “this is how bad ass I am!”
I took a picture last night of fried frog legs! We tried out a new “southern” restaurant and they served chicken and waffles and frog legs! I only tried the chicken and waffles. I am not into eating things that resemble what they looked like while they were alive.
those costco cupcakes are insane! i have to stop myself from buying them everytime i’m in the store. i love running and the health benefits of being outside, but it sucks to undo all the hard work after one of those delicious cupcakes lol
You are so cute. Flying in style! I can never pull that off.
Race pics from this morning. Faceless self-portrait for my photo challenge. Some food pics. Clafoutis, Mexican lasagna and Pho. A few of silly children. Good times always.
My sister sent me a cute pic of my nephew trying to help her unfold laundry
I took a few pics of my favorite coupon from the newspaper and the clothes/food that is going in a bag to give. Our church provides and picks up the bags, we just have to fill them — easy way to give!
I watched two guys brew beer on Saturday for the first time. I took my dog. So, I took pictures of that night.
I must have that leopard Kitchenaid mixer!
Love that your Mom lives in Sun City, so does my Mom!! Was just out there, (I live in PA) and couldn’t get enough of the weather, but had way too much of the golf carts driving on the road like cars!! lol
Used to live in OC..so AZ makes me really miss the whole west coast, better weather, palm tree thing
