If you want to save money, buying a rice cooker is taking a step backward. Rice is way to easy to cook without a special piece of equipment to do it in. And happy hour? I suggest cutting it out as often as possible. Trader Joes, cheap? I don’t think I could even get 2 buck chuck past my nose. Rice, pasta and frozen veggies are cheap, and if you are buying meat in bulk then you can throw that in whatever you make. Canned tuna, salmon are cheap enough for that sort of fix. Cereal is now dinner or late night munch. Raw bulk veggies for snacks. Don’t buy anything you don’t need and use coupons!!!

To me flying isn’t about having drugs or music players to dull out the interaction. Instead I want to be right in the mix. I want to sit in my isle seat and feel the plane take off, enjoy that experience of lifting from the runway, being carried off of the face of the Earth. I want to look out the windows from my isle seat and know that Im leaving the planet to fly in this spectacular vesicle and that t 13,500 ft what Id really like to do is blow this joint and jump the f*ck out, parachute in tact. But instead I sit, and enjoy while getting my knees clipped from the beverage cart……

Reason 6: REI is considered a department store Reason 9: Most dress for extreme outdoor activities rather than a day at the office I think the outdoors is sexy!

Traders Joe’s has a killer Green and Black Olive Hummus. Smear this hummus on the Naan Flatbread that they stock as well. It is so good. I can eat the entire package of hummus like this for dinner. This is why I always have to get two!

Hey again! I just commented on your Yellowstone post. Well, SD was amazing as well. Mt Rushmore was also on my top five of places I fell in love with on my drive. Ill never forget the feeling that rushed over me, it was emotional! When I drove around the bend and I laid eyes on the side on Lincoln—words will never express the power of what I felt. I havent posted about that stop yet, I plan to, I think this is yet another place that must been seen in a lifetime. Truly amazing. S you were in SD and didnt hit the Badlands?! :O

I had the opportunity to stop at Yellowstone on my XC drive to the wet coast. It was one of my favorite stops I made a long the way. Truly beautiful, and I can say that I am jealous that I could only stay the one day. Of course I made the most of it, until the sun dropped down. I too would suggest in a heartbeat to visit this particular NP. Nice pix!

I always enjoy pix of athletic women—very powerful VERY sexy.
