just our day to day life
This was just an average workout week. I didn’t do anything particularly special, but got some good workouts (and soreness) in. My elbow isn’t really getting better or getting worse, so I’m trying not to do anything extra outside of using it for volleyball, yoga, …
I saw this article on Wisebread and thought it was pretty useful. The tip about coating a pill in butter to make it easier to swallow makes me want to gag, but there good ones such as preserving a cut onion or hard cheese, and …
