Blogging FAIL

Here I go again talking about how bad of a blogger I am. I think part of it is I'm still trying to find my voice when it comes to blogging. My initial theme for this blog was to document my culinary adventures. I think in order for me to blog more I need to expand the theme of the blog. I still want to write about the restaurants I try and the recipes I attempt but I think I also just want to write about my life in general. So an all purpose blog if you will. 

My life right now consists of work, running/training, wedding/honeymoon planning, and foodie adventures. So I guess for now that will be what this blog will be about.

Brian and I are currently in Week 11 of marathon training. Our long run for this week is 16 miles, just one mile longer than our longest run to date. So far we are doing well with training and just putting in the miles. One thing we have both noticed that has helped us recover from our long runs is the dreaded and beloved ice bath. What is it you ask? Exactly what it sounds like. You sit in a bathtub of ice cold water w/ ice cubes for about 15 minutes. It hurts so good. Sure, my legs turn shades of purple and red and are cold to the touch even as I'm taking a hot shower afterward but the pain experienced in that brief period of time isn't so bad compared to having sore and tight muscles for the next few days.

Speaking of the next few days, Valentine's Day is coming up. We are planning to stay in and just cook a delicious meal together, which is what we love to do anyway especially on big holidays like this where restaurants are overbooked and overpriced. Which reminds me I still need to find some recipes for our V-Day dinner. 

I still have some restaurant write-ups to post - promise!
