I own and rock people’s faces off teaching ballroom dancing at Dancers Studio in St. Paul, MN. My husband and I compete professionally in American style and wrangle eight children in our spare time. I’ve been teaching and competing in ballroom dancing for over 25 years and have lots of opinions on it. I am an expert by any means, but there are quite a few dancers who are better than me and I have a solid knowledge of basic technique, so suck it.

List of Last Week’s Labors of Love

– cooked and baked all the things.  Seriously, I've been cooking 2-4 meals a day.  If I'm making a chicken so-and-so, I make the other chicken whatsit I have planned for later that week and throw the 2nd one in the freezer.  I have sooooo much food everywhere.  IT'S FANTASTIC!

– said "screw you, healthy eating" and ate all the things.  Like, things I haven't eaten in months.  I had McDonald's AND Little Caesar's in one day.  So disgusting.  Don't get me wrong, it was delicious for a minute, but then I felt like HELL.  Processed food is weird, man.  

– have slowly turned into a total hippy.  See above.  Did I mention I also do yoga and compost?

hippie?

this is not what hippies have looked like in my experience

– on a related note: who wants to go to Wanderlust with me?  I'm seriously flirting with the idea of heading out to Whistler in August and filling my quota of barefooted-kefir-drinking.  Oh, you didn't know there was a quota?  There is.

yoga and music and canada, what's not to love

– or could I go to the SeaWheeze?  I'd run 13.1 in Vancouver.

running and vancouver, what's not to love

– basically, I'm just looking for a reason to go to the Pacific Northwest and hang out.  

– HOW 'BOUT I DO BOTH?!

What'd you do last week?  What have you been eating?  Any big travel plans for 2013?
