Taught by a rotating group of yogis, all of whom are skilled instructors, the yoga runs from 9:30-10:15ish every morning. Mats are provided,…

HCG “Steak Day” Update and a Bam! Workout
On the HCG diet, if you gain 2 or more pounds from the weight you ended the HCG drops at, you have to do a Steak Day, where you eat nothing all day until dinner when you have the largest steak possible and an apple. After bingeing two nights ago on the most amazing flax…
Airports
As it turns out, I spend a lot of time in them, though not usually quite as much as I have trying to get out of Aspen in a blizzard or back into Aspen during a really windy day… where I end up driving with a family of four from New York from Denver to…
Aspen: Broken Social Scene for Free!
The indie-rock phenomenon Broken Social Scene will play for FREE in downtown Aspen on Friday, March 18 at 8 pm for Core Party, kicking off the 11th Annual Bud Light Spring Jam. Which is sort of ironic since a little fest called SXSW is happening in Austin with lots of big names, but not this one!…

Aspen has a lot of extreme events, but this is serious! It’s the first year, so it should be interesting to…
HCG Diet Day 21
Well, I weighed in the same as yesterday. I look and feel good but cannot break this weight!! UGH!! You have to take the last three days off from taking HCG, and I took it this morning, so I’m at least extending an extra day. Will see how I feel, if I feel like I’m…
Finally, bar stools!
Isn’t she a beaute? We finally got two barstools, after ordering what we thought was a set but was really just a table back in OCTOBER (remember me talking about wanting a fab bar-height table?). Better late than never, right? A downside to living in Aspen, garage-saleing isn’t what it is in Austin. We ended…
