An Anti-Atrophy Agenda that is…(if you missed part one, or the OG dilemma, click away).  Otherwise, I’ll just continue where I last left off…  2.  As per several of your comments, I am going to be travelling outside my comfort zone and giving group classes a shot.  Because I am a wuss, the only ones [...]

Vegan lasagna

For some reason, I’m not a huge fan of Italian food.  Not sure why.  In my opinion, there’s just something a bit boring about pasta that prevents me from craving it very often.  Growing up I always groaned when my mom made spaghetti (nevermind that it was one of my sister’s favorites).  Nowadays, not much [...]
