Melanie's Weekly: December 2011
http://melanieweekly.blogspot.com/2011_12_01_archive.html
Wednesday, December 28, 2011. My goal for 2012 is to get this weight loss thing back on track and finally make it to goal! No resolution, no promises to be perfect every day of the year, I have set a realistic goal, and I will make it happen! Sounds good but I'm not sure I actually can. Make it happen. It's not like it's the first time I try, I'm not sure what I can do for it to work this time. What if I can't have my wine? Does this sound familiar? You are not alone! Still we have lost! Tuesday at the S...

Melanie's Recipes: Butternut squash-tomato soup
http://melaniesfoods.blogspot.com/2012/01/butternut-squash-tomato-soup.html
Monday, January 9, 2012. I've been having a cooking attack and I'm certainly not going to do anything to stop it! I'm enjoying this and the food is actually pretty darned good! Today I was roasting veggies for my lunch, and I decided to double up and roast a butternut squash I had sitting around. I chopped it, spiced it (complete recipe below) and roasted it. A minute or so later, I threw in the butternut squash, and cooked for a minute or two. It was delicious and even better reheated! 1 tsp canola oil.

Sunday, September 18, 2011. I live in the Richmond District, a few blocks from Golden Gate Park. I love walking/running in the park, having picnics, reading under the trees, but I had not realized how much stuff is going on in there! Isn't it funny that we sometimes fail to see what's right in front of us? This week is going to be beautiful, the sun is out FINALLY! Why don't we head to the Park and see what's out there? You can rent equipment and everything! Don't let your net fly away! There's always th...

Body and Mind: Getting a good night sleep
http://melaniebodyandmind.blogspot.com/2011/10/getting-good-night-sleep.html
Monday, October 3, 2011. Getting a good night sleep. How much sleep do you get on average each night? Is it enough for you? I'm asking because it is different for all of us; some people need their 8 hours of shut eye, others can function with 4 hours (how I'll never know! Having suffered from insomnia most of my life, I thought it would be an interesting subject to look into: What can we do to get a good night sleep?
