Copies of my brand new textbook! I have to say, it’s pretty amazing to hold this book – the product of so much work – in my very own hands! For those of you who have been asking where you can buy yourself a copy of this fine book ((I.e., Rick.)), you can get it […]
So, remember that time I did a photoshoot because I need a professional photo for a top secret project that I was working on? Well, as it turns out, the reason that I needed that photo was for the author bio page of the textbook I’ve been working on! Essentials of Nutrition: A Functional Approach, […]
My frogs are going to be parents! The day before yesterday I noticed that Torpedo looked like she had some translucent eggs coming out of, for lack of a better word, her bum ((OK, technically the word is her “cloaca”, but I figured you wouldn’t know what that was. Well, except for Erika & Linda, […]
Reading Chris’s blog yesterday, I was reminded that November is National Blog Posting Month (a.k.a. NaBloPoMo), the month where bloggers try to post a blog posting every single day. And since I blogged yesterday, and now I’m blogging today, that means I’m 1/15th of the way to completing this! I’ve successfully completed NaBloPoMo every year […]

My friend Dr. Dan wants to throw himself off the side of a building, but he needs your help. More specifically, Dan is raising funds for Easter Seals, a charity that helps children with disabilities, and if he raises $1,500, he gets to rappel down the side of a large building. Rappelling, for the uninitiated, is […]
The official movie trailer for Lace Bite, the documentary about the Longest Game of Hockey for Cystic Fibrosis: The movie is also now listed on IMDB and is an official selection at the St. John’s International Women’s Film Festival!
As you may recall, my friend Rick won the Big Mountain Challenge where he and Dan got a trip to Banff and Lake Louise to do some amazing hikes, got pampered at swanky Banff and Lake Louise spas, AND raised $26,762 for the Kidney Foundation of Canada. Well, he and Dan completed all the necessary […]
Today we welcomed five newcomers to the Chez S&M Household ((That’s S&M for Snow & Maguire. Get your minds out of the gutter!)) – five as-of-yet-unnamed ((We are waiting until we get to know them a little better before we give them names)) African dwarf frogs! They are very crafty little guys who like to […]
