    FlyKitt – The Magic Bullet for Jet Lag

    Anyone who has followed us for a while knows that jet lag kicks my butt. When we traveled to Japan it took me about five days before I got a good night sleep. It didn’t keep me from enjoying myself but it definitely would have been better had I arrived in Tokyo well rested.  With a big trip planned to Australia this summer to run the Sydney Marathon, the concern about jet lag had been weighing on me quite a bit.  But not anymore!!

    The Very Best of 2024

    We SO love experiences and look for fun ways to remember everything we’ve done over the year. One of our favorites is tacking up things like theater tickets, paper wrist bands, and bar coasters on a corkboard.

So as we wind down the year, let us share with you the very best of 2024! The Meal of the Year For my birthday, I had two big wishes. The first was to spend the morning…
