Running and Laughing through the Golden State
Running and Laughing through the Golden State
Over the weekend, I headed to Red Rock Canyon State Park in Kern County. Located in the Tehachapi District of the California State Park System, it’s only about 45 minutes away from me, which at this point is close. It’s also about 80 miles East of Bakersfield and 25 miles north of Mojave. Getting there is fairly easy, and you can park right off the highway.
Over the last few months, I’ve been working with Netic Health. Originally I began using it while living in Napa Valley. My IT Bands became tight, and I had no place to turn. I found Netic Health as an easy resource for me to use in the comfort of my own home. Especially because during the time, much of California was still shut down.
When living in New Jersey (and even now looking back at life in NorCal), I was always close enough to drive to meet a PT in person. Now, living in the desert, I have to drive at least 70 miles to get out of the desert to get quality care. Sadly the coyotes or cacti don’t offer it. Even if you aren’t driving far, you can schedule Netic Health around your own busy needs and life. We all have busy lives and finding time to make a doctor’s appointment sometimes becomes the least of our priorities.
Over the summer, when the owners of Netic Health, Mathias and Louis, reached out to me, I was excited to try it.
I never thought to make an easy cast iron skillet cornbread recipe. It all started a couple of days before Thanksgiving. We didn’t plan to stay home for Thanksgiving, but after my back situation, it was the best choice. Usually, we try a new recipe but buying your entire Thanksgiving meal the night before makes that difficult. I’ve made a few cornbread recipes before (both boxed and with cornmeal), and I’ve found them to be ok. Not great, but not terrible either. The problem was they came out too dry or crusty. It was nothing that adding a bunch of butter couldn’t fix, but you don’t want that!
I’ve been looking for new recipes besides the “meat and potatoes” that we seem to keep having. I read about an Easy Instant Pot Stuffed Acorn Squash Recipe and decided to try something for myself. We are big squash fans in my house, so this seemed like a must. Plus, with the easy instant pot stuffed acorn squash recipe, you can have everything done in about 30 minutes if you know me; the more accessible, the better. I don’t love spending hours in the kitchen, so this is a great weeknight recipe.
I was never a big acorn squash fan until my dad continued to eat it. At my house, we alternate between acorn squash and spaghetti squash recipes. I like the sweetness of the acorn squash.
You’ve been warned: The Mizuno Wave Rider 25 has undergone significant changes since the previous version. Is it bad? No.
Is it different? Yes.
Are these the updates that usually cause Mizuno fans to panic? Yes. The Mizuno Wave Rider 25 is updated with the softer full-length Erezy Foam midsole. Plus, it’s more flexible. Personally, I think it’s felt great.
