I like to keep my legs covered and often chose capris over shorts for my runs. But running in Texas, even in early April, called for shorts. While attending the New Balance Women's Running Summit in Austin I scored a pair of the NP shorts ($25). While I won't be going all shorts all the time, the NP shorts are my new go-to bottoms for hot weather, should it strike in Nor Cal anytime soon. Plus, I Read more

Fresh green peas are the first sign for Spring and since they have a short season, I always get my fill before they disappear come Summer. And just in the nick of time, I spotted a new recipe from Michelle Obama's upcoming book, American Grown. The First Lady's pea salad calls for peas, shallots, leeks, and mint, all tossed together with a healthy cream dressing. After shelling the peas, they Read more
