There’s a new movement starting this Wednesday across the country called “Take Back Your Lunch.” All you have to do is dine with friend in a park or public place to get away from your computer for an hour. Why? Take Back Your Lunch is a part of The Energy Project for Tony Schwartz’s new…

I’m giving it all up …
No need to CrossFit, run, bike, play soccer … just go hike up a mountain 2,000 feet (reaching almost 12,000) with an overnight camping pack on your back. Because that’s what I did yesterday and it KICKED MY ASS. According to this article, the White River National Forest Aspen Ranger District says the route is…
Tabata My Arms Off
… or, My Legs Are Too Sore and Bruised To Work Out Any More After a bike ride to and from town, which I will probably repeat tonight as I head in for a cookout and live music show, I hit the dog park and its bright green grass for an arm-heavy tabata workout. After…
Aspen: Chocolate Chip Cookie Contest & Edward Sharpe at Belly Up
You have got to be kidding me. In the midst of one of the greatest gourmet food and wine festivals in the country, there’s a chocolate chip cookie contest?! There’s no way I can go to this … I will eat all of the cookies and be unable to gorge myself further with fabulous food…
“Awkward Capri”
I often find funny keywords that led people to this site in my google analytics, but rarely does one of those end up in my “Top Searches” section! Enter “awkward capri.” … Now, I know for certain that I don’t WEAR awkward capris. Hell, I barely even wear capris, unless it’s for yoga and/or they’re…
Aspen: Um, duh? Food & Wine Classic Weekend
It’s this weekend, kids. If you didn’t have the $1,185 to buy the big tickets, or even the $295 to buy a 1-day pass (steal! if that’s your cup of tea anyway), you can still enjoy the Food & Wine melee with the rest. Word on the street is that there are over 100 private…
Battle Wounds
What is it about a bruise, or ripped hands, or a gnarly gash from an olympic bar or a slide in soccer that makes us so proud? If we didn’t actually “hurt” ourselves (spraining an ankle, breaking a finger), we’re proud of the minor injuries. This isn’t just CrossFitters or hardcore athletes, it’s anyone. It’s…
#omg @hippest
I had a “Lyssa” nameplate necklace at 16 (that’s before Sex & The City, for anyone who’s counting) and still own a faux-blinged-out platinum chain with “Lyssa” on it. So when I read about Survival of the Hippest, where they make TWITTER NAMEPLATE NECKLACES, I couldn’t help but post. Only $49.95! Check it out. I…
Redesign!
What say you, interwebs? To accommodate the Austin and Aspen posts, I thought it’d be prudent to have three posts displaying in the primetime spot on the site. If you RSS read, you do not probably care. If you don’t, however, hello!! Since the new design is all suave-eh, say adios to my sweet but…
Raaaaar Strength in THE GYM!!
