I recently got back from my favorite place in the whole entire world, hence the destination wedding, CABO! - Only to find yet another reason to love it even more. The plunge.

Buckle Up! Flying the Fattening Skies.

Sep 17 by Alex Powers

Plane rides and trips to the airport are generally thought of as “vacations” or “celebrations”, but if you travel as much as I do, you’d know I really can’t afford to calorically think that way. I feel like airport terminals are truly a setup for instant nutrition fail. You arrive anxious about Read More >>>

Sep 11 by Alex Powers

Happy not-officially-but-basically-officially Fall! Hello to pumpkin spice everything and goodbye to watermelons and white shoes. This past weekend was a true joy, in all of its bank holiday “go for it” glory. Yes, I stuck to my intermittent fasting, which has been great by the way! – But no, I Read More >>>

GETTING CARDED.

Aug 8 by Alex Powers

Being engaged is exceptionally special, certainly! But I quickly discovered I was far from the only one in this position.

BAHAMIAN RHAPSODY.

Aug 4 by Alex Powers

Bahamas; noun. Synonyms: Turquoise waters, fried conch and rum infusions. Yes that combination definitely cannot be beat, but sadly for me it had to be revised a bit. During my family “Bahamian Rhapsody” last week I chose to focus on syn. #1. As Queen would say, “Is this the real life, is this Read More >>>

WALK THE WALK.

Jul 30 by Alex Powers
