10 Years of Opportunity

So I’m traveling again… but I’m sure this doesn’t surprise you one bit. You know what may surprise you? The #1 comment I heard when I told people I was headed to Europe for a 2 week visit/vacation.

You Spin Me Right Round...

I love kitchen gadgets. It’s almost a little obsessive and ridiculous. In fact, one of my favorite things to do when I was on tour was visiting kitchen stores. Williams- Sonoma, Kitchen Collection, even Bed Bath & Beyond! Why did I do this on tour, you ask?

The weather is warming up, and all I can think about right now is fresh veggies! I love veggies all year round, don’t get me wrong. But while in the cooler months I steam, roast, and add veggies to soups and stews when it gets warmer I just want them fresh! There’s something about that cool, crisp taste of fresh fruits and veggies that I just can’t get enough of.

Today, the weirdest thing happened. I woke up early, looked at my workout calendar and realized it was a rest day. So what did I do? Pulled on my itty-bitty shorts (that I have no use for… I mean, TurboKick in shorts? Bad idea… bad idea.), laced up my shoes, grabbed my iPod and went for a run.
What?!?! But Erin, you hate running. Like… hate running. A lot.
I know, I realize this.

You know the feeling. The knot in your stomach, the overwhelming nausea mixed with heat flashes, the realization that you aren't as young as you used to be, and the promise to never do it again. Of course, you don't realize it while it's happening; it feels so good to indulge. But you pay for it later.

Over this past year, my life has changed. A lot. Like… a lot, a lot.
And to be completely honest, I was having a hard time trying to figure out how this blog fit into this new life that had snuck up on and seduced me. ... No longer was I living my life day to day out of a suitcase. No longer were 90% of my meals created out of ingredients that could be kept in a mini-fridge, cooked in a hotel microwave, and carried from hotel to hotel in a purse-sized cooler. No longer did I have to wear the same 3 pairs of shoes!

Halloween candy. Ugh.
Truth is, I don’t even like it. Maybe it’s because I have re-trained my taste buds to enjoy better quality food or maybe it’s because I know what’s in the candy and how it impacts my body (headaches & breakouts anyone?).
But there it sat, staring at me.
I knew it wasn't worth it. Sure, I love peanut butter and chocolate together. So Reese’s are a temptation. But truth is, the dark chocolate peanut butter cups from Trader Joe’s and Justin‘s peanut butter cups are better than Reese’s.
I said what I said.
