Alive? Check.

I am alive. Been so busy and I haven’t had any time to blog. I don’t know how some of these other girls do it.

Things I need to catch up on:

  • The Seattles
  • Blue Hill belated anniversary dinner
  • 6 mile run – YES!
  • Gym update
  • Lots of photos
  • A great foodie book I am reading
  • An important foodie book I bought in the Seattles and the boy is devouring

Ummm.. I know there is more but I am experiencing an extreme case of the itis right now from my amazing dinner at Blue Hill. For those of you not familiar with Chris Rock, either look it up or recognize by its other monikers: food coma or a food baby.

Be back this week. Don’t leave me!

Race Photo!

Remember when I was lamenting after my 5 mile race that I am never in any race photos? At my first 5K, there were pictures of the people who finished 1 second before and 1 second after me. At my second 5K, my friend Megan, who was right next to me, was in a photo and I wasn’t!

Also of note is the fact that my best friend had camera in hand when I was approaching the finish line at the first 5K and still missed getting a photo of me in my bright aqua blue shirt because another guy was wearing that color too and was slightly ahead of me. She snapped a shot of him. And at the 5 mile, the boy was waiting at the finish land, camera in hand, instructions to look for my hot pink headband. And he didn’t realize I finished until I tapped him on the shoulder after I passed the finish line.

You can imagine my surprise when I got an email from Brightroom a week after my 5 miler and this was in it:

Dori in 5 Mile race

Proof that I DO exist and I DO participate in road races! Finally a race photo of me!
