Bringing Happy Hour to Your Shower

THERE ARE NO RULES IN QUARANTINE! Even if there were, shower happy hour is always a good idea. I got a surprise shipment from 30 Watt (although the box said Prank-o, which is a far more hilarious “from” address) for their new initiative: Bringing Happy Hour to Your Shower: Sudski and Sipski are here to help you…

The New Neighborhood Spot

“I wish we had a neighborhood spot. Where we could just always go, and it would always be good, and it’s good there or to-go …” … and then we walked into Spread & Co on a lazy Saturday afternoon and our wishes were granted. The space is warm, inviting, and a bit like if…

Aspen: Summer Hiking

Last summer, I was coaching boot camp and using the abundant hiking trails in Aspen as training tools. The hiking in Aspen is absolutely incredible, but what’s even more incredible is the fact that we don’t even have to get in a car to embark on some great hikes. Here’s a rundown of five hikes…

No, Really, You Can Drink More Water

I’m a huge proponent of drinking more water. I write about it all the time, perhaps ad nauseum.

I’m usually pretty good about getting my 64 ounces in…
