Green Eggs And …..

eggs_greens_sandwich_feedzonecookbook

Green Eggs and ?  Well as you know there will be no ham for me and thankfully the recipe from The Feedzone Cookbook doesn’t ask for ham to be included.  This recipe drew me in because of the name.  We can all remember reading green eggs and ham by Dr Seuss.  As a matter of [...]

Engine 2 Kitchen Rescue Review

engine2diet_review

Engine 2 Kitchen rescue is a movie from the makers of Forks Over Knives, just like Hungry For Change, that shows Rip Esselstyn going into two houses and showing them how to eat a plant-strong diet.  I was attracted to this movie originally because it came from the people who created Forks Over Knives but [...]

Hungry For Change Movie Review

hungryforchange_documentary_movie_review

Hungry For Change is a documentary from the makers of Food Matters, which I previously reviewed.  So while the rest of the country was watching another movie with the title Hunger in it (Hunger Games) I was fixated to my laptop and loved every minute of the 90 minute documentary.

Iron War Book Review

iron_war_triathlon_book_review

Where do I begin with this review.  I found Iron War by Matt Fitzgerald to be just incredible and not only because of the storytelling of the greatest Ironman race ever but because of the scientific information that came with it.  I have read Chris McCormack’s book I’m Here To Win as well as the book  You [...]

Bike Trainer Movie Reviews

Unknown-17

As the weather continues to get colder (although it was 67* here yesterday) time on the trainer is increasing.  Just like the treadmill I need something to take my mind off of riding on the trainer.  When you are spending 1 hour to 3 hours staring at your garage door time can seem to stand [...]

You Are An Ironman Book Review

Unknown-6

I finished reading the book You Are An Ironman a few weeks ago but put off writing the review as I wanted to let what I just read to marinate in my mind and see if there was some profound effect on me.  For me a good book leaves me thinking even after I have [...]
