My Bucket List

I've done the 101 in 1001, 30 before 30, and now it's time to focus on my lifetime bucket list. I think it's easier for me to look at a list without a due date attached. Eases the pressure and potential feelings of failure. Although at some point I need to get used to setting deadlines for myself and actually following through with them...
  1. visit another continent
  2. go zorbing
  3. climb to the top of a mountain
  4. visit Machu Picchu
  5. spend the night in an underwater hotel
  6. spend a night in an ice hotel
  7. see Aurora Borealis
  8. see a show on Broadway
  9. write and self publish a cookbook
  10. run a 5k
  11. go sailing
  12. go deep sea fishing
  13. learn another language fluently
  14. go scuba diving
  15. ride in a hot air balloon
  16. go skydiving
  17. become a beekeeper
  18. read all of Dean Koontz's books
  19. become as healthy as possible
  20. become a big sister
  21. own a farm in the country
  22. Adopt a child
  23. swim with dolphins
  24. go on a yoga retreat in another country
  25. go to a TEDTalk conference
  26. go geo-caching
  27. Drive the entire Natches Trace in a convertible
  28. Eat at a Mario Battali restaurant
  29. Eat at a Cat Cora restaurant
  30. Eat at a Masaharu Morimoto restaurant
  31. Donate money to a KivaLoan
  32. Visit Yellowstone at least twice
  33. Make 100 cards for strangers (4 down, 96 to go)
  34. Watch baby turtles enter the sea for the first time
  35. Visit Salem, MA on Halloween
  36. Get my navel pierced.... again.
I'm sure that this is going to be an ongoing list... I'll find things I want to add or subtract from time to time, and I'll want to update it when I accomplished an item. We'll see how it goes :)

My First Giveaway!

My last post was about my decision to start a bakery. I'm very excited about it, and have been getting some fantastic reviews from my taste testers! My menu is small right now, but I am continually working on new recipes to expand it. I'm currently attempting to make a really good gluten free sandwich bread that doesn't have corn, potato, white rice, or soy in it. I hope to have it done by opening day, Nov 1. I know it's weird to open on a Tuesday, but I plan to be very busy celebrating our 2 year wedding anniversary on Halloween by scaring little kids :) I figured one of the best ways to advertise the bakery was to have a blog giveaway. So that's exactly what I'm doing! One lucky reader will receive a $20 gift certificate to I Can't Believe It's Good For Me. The giveaway is open until midnight, Oct. 31. The winner will be chosen by random.org and announced on Nov 1. Here are the rules: 1 - You must complete the mandatory entry. 2 - Post each entr...

Cortisol and Leptin...

Photo credit I feel so run down. I felt like this most of last week, and ended up taking 3 days off work due to it. This weekend was better - We went to Houston. We spent several hours enjoying the Downtown Aquarium on Saturday, and I enjoyed my PCOS symposium on Sunday. But as soon as I got in the car to head home, this feeling came back. It was so bad that I tossed my cookies less than an hour after we got on the road. This was definitely not from being car sick. I don't get car sick. I was tired all evening, had stupid issues with my homework, and finally went to be at 2-2:30. I realize that was late, and it could explain why I'm tired, but it doesn't explain the run-down, crappy feeling. I got plenty of sleep last week and still felt this way. I think it could be a cortisol issue. I have high cortisol levels. I know I haven't checked with a doctor, but from the information I received at the PCOS symposium, as well as years of research, it fits. I did some more re...
