Running Hard for a Cause. February 17, 2012. Finishing the Blue Norther Duathlon. Pushing farther at the Energizer Night Run. This is a story about perseverance. A simple tale of grit overcoming adversity and inertia. It’s a call to action for a good cause. And it also happens to be a story about my wife, Karina. A year later, after dramatic lifestyle shifts that largely eliminated some life-long favorites (farewell, white rice! Just four months ago, after continued food tweaks and further upshifted leve...

http://timelessboulevard.com/2014/03/11/post-tropical-papaya-smoothie
After spending a month traveling in the Philippines and gorging on delicious tropical holiday fare then taking another couple of weeks recovering from the exotic-sounding tropical dengue fever I picked up along the way I’d had a belly full of tropical goodness for a while. Post-Tropical Papaya (and Banana) Smoothie. 1 cups papaya chunks. This was about half of a medium-sized papaya. It’s just not a smoothie without a banana, I sometimes say. And it’s a nice tropical complement to the papaya flavor. Gerry...

Smoothie Improvisation: Apples, Cherries, Walnuts, Cranberries and More. The late afternoon sun is pouring through our windows, flooding my work perch and reminding me of how long it’s been since lunch. Now that we’re on the tail-end of our week’s worth of produce, making a smoothie snack calls for a bit of improvisational scrounging (though admittedly, improvisation is always part of my cooking style). I gathered a few items likely to match with each other, resulting in this:. 1 handful dried cherries.

Neapolitan Banana Split Smoothie. When I was a kid, my mom was fond of neapolitan ice cream. My memories are colored with recollections of cracking open the freezer after school, digging out the half-gallon box and dishing out scoops of milky-brown chocolate, white vanilla and neon-pink strawberry ice cream into a Corelle bowl lined with sliced bananas.
