About Me

My SNHU professor wants me to write about me......ok here it goes

I'm 45, Mom of 3 amazing kids....Danny and Matt, teenage boys 14 years old, and Rebecca, best daughter in universe....12 years old. My hubby is definetly my better half...he puts up with my shenanigans....Jim, I think 52 years young. My hobbies include cooking and eating, exercising (especially yoga), reading (member of 2 bookgroups....old lady called "woman of the word", and daughter's "a dollop of cream"), and I play the violin. I play for an amateur orchestra...the Nashua Chamber Orchestra.. amazing people and players, still difficult for me to keep up, but I practice and do my best! I am also co-producer of Amherst PTA play this year, and will do it again next year! I hope to for a long time, and to someday be a teacher. I taught violin 5 years, and now subbing in Amherst School System and getting my Masters at SNHU. That's me in a nutshell.....perfect....a nut in a nutshell!! (:

Fruit Cleanse

Tomorrow I start my 40 day rejuvenation fast/fruit cleanse. It's supposed to be 3 days of just eating fruit...but I'm starting with complete fast first...at least to start, and go as long as I can. Then fruit for 2 days. I don't think I'll be successful otherwise. Nice timing....right before Easter. I've done 3 weeks so far of tons of yoga, journaling, 5 - 15 minute meditation 1x a day (supposed to be 2x - but can't...too busy!)

Ok enough for now....will include recipes for smoothies, applesauce with raspberries (thank you Tara).....tomatoe soup (yes tomatoes are a fruit).....

I'm a Julie/Julia wannabe (:
