Book/Movie Reviews

So, I've been waiting and thinking and changing my mind about how and when to do book and movie reviews on here. At first I thought a whole blog dedicated to comparing movies to the books they originated from. Then I thought, no that's too much work and I may have to read or watch something I really don't want to just to feel like I'm covering it all. Eh, pass. Now I'm thinking one day a week or once a month. We shall see. Look for something next week however to kick things off as I think I just may have some free time opening up....

How Do I Fit My Workout In? Answer: Planning

We all struggle sometimes to balance everything we need and want to do in a day. Common advice is that we need to make the time for things that are truly important us. I know you may be eye-rolling thinking, but when? For me, it's getting up extra early. For others, maybe it's staying up late. For all of us, it's usually a trade off of some kind. The key to fitting a workout into your day is planning.  Creating, and sticking to, a workout routine is all about the planning. Set yourself up for success by planning ahead and thinking of a workout as a given part of your day. This doesn't mean you can never take a day off but once routine is established it's so much easier to stick to. Conversely, once it's broken it can be more challenging to reestablish. More than two days off, the harder it will be to get back at it. If you really want to workout, try what works for me to make a morning workout happen. 1. Plan It.  Write it in your planner.

How To Make a "Shrimp Boil", No Pot Required

  My family loves a good shrimp boil at the beach, where you season and throw everything in together to cook in a huge pot outside. We weren't able to do that this year but, thanks to my mom, we did have a pretty delicious alternative over Labor Day. If you didn't have a shrimp boil this summer, it's not too late with this alternative. No large pot required. Make this simple combination using your oven, microwave and grill. Guaranteed to still be delicious and have great leftovers to mix and match for other meals.  What You'll Need: 1-2 lb Shrimp, peeled and deveined (can leave tails on) 2 Kielbasa Sausages (if you buy long ones or use whole pack if grab another kind) Corn on the Cob, husked, 2 per person 2 lbs Red Skin Potatoes Ready to Bake Biscuits, optional Olive Oil Bayou Seasoning*If you don't have or want, use combination of Paprika, Garlic Salt, Minced Garlic and Onion Powder to flavor to liking.* Paprika Minced Garlic Onion Powder Garlic Salt B...

Papa...Papa...Paparazzi

Do you hate the paparazzi for invading the lives of public people and celebrities? Or do you love them for the salacious gossip their stalking fuels in the media? In a society obsessed with celebrities, whom haven't all garnered their fame by talent or achievement, the paparazzi play an intrusively integral role in exposing both real and largely skewed versions of their realities. I recently read "Accidental It Girl" by Libby Street in which the lead, and extremely likable, female character is herself a paparazzi who feels the hate from celebrities and everyday peeps alike. Then, our lady photog gets the tables turned on her. It's a fun quick read that speaks to the times while not getting too serious. Read and enjoy!
