buy other stuff
These are some of my favorite things to read, watch, listen to, and use in the kitchen. If you buy any of this stuff through my little store, I get a tiny kickback from Amazon… so why not buy yourself a present today!

I’ve read all of these books (even the one I wrote!), and they all shaped my thinking about eating, training, and living.
Mark is all about the sexy side of living right. It’s a nice balance to my general affection for strict rules and discipline.
Sarah provides a nicely-rounded family approach to eating, exercise, and living a happy life, plus lots of recipes.
It looks like it’s about roller derby, but it’s really about strong women and not giving up on your big ideas… and it shares the story of how I transformed from über-nerd to Rollergirl.
Don’t be put off by the sorta cheesy title; this little book is packed with badass ideas.
Dave and I read this before we started our half marathon training. It’s filled with excellent advice for runners of any distance — and I love Galloway’s run-walk philosophy.
Feed Your Body
Super helpful in the kitchen for ensuring I eat enough protein.
My primary pan for almost all our meals. We have two — often on the stove at once!
Absolutely essential for minimizing kitchen accidents. Dull knife=danger!
Durable, environmentally friendly, won’t destroy your pans.
This is the #1 knife I use for everything. LOVE IT!
Oxo Good Grips Swivel Peeler
Works great, even on hard-to-peel like jicama and mango!
Amco Enameled Aluminum Lemon Squeezer
I thought I didn’t need one of these until I got one. Make your life easier.
This thing is a work horse! Ideal for sunshine sauce, mayo, cauliflower “rice,” and more.

Jane Eyre (Masterpiece Theatre, 2006)
My favorite film adaptation.
A compelling collection of essays about travels around the world and inside the brain.
The Edge
The Edge by Dick Francis
A fun mystery set on a train ride across the Canadian Rockies.
Some days are just like that. On those days, you need to read this book.
A food memoir that perfectly captures what food means to family.
Feed Your Ears
Cheating at Solitaire
Cheating at Solitaire by Mike Ness
Just the right mix of anger and redemption.
Sex, Love and Rock ‘n’ Roll by Social Distortion
My fave album from my fave band. Dare you not to love “Highway 101.”
The Moldau: Bohemian Fields and Groves Slavonic Dances
Painfully beautiful and exhilarating.

Stronger by Kanye West
He’s a tool, but this is the best workout song ever.

F**k You by Cee Lo Green[Explicit]
Totally kickass running song.
