about

i’m sarah and i am thrilled that you stopped by my corner of the [blogging] world! i started this blog in january 2011 as one of my new years resolutions. after reading healthy living blogs for over a year, i thought i could add something to the community. i am all about embracing those everyday learning moments that happen when you least expect them. my blog features anything from food, weight loss, craftiness, goal-setting, and sometimes even fitness. things are always changing in life, and this blog reflects that! right now, i am learning how to stay healthy and motivated while sitting at a desk all day. who knows what tomorrow will bring! whether it be a new recipe, cooking technique, organizational tool, workout move, or random fact, i make it a goal to learn something new every day. this blog will follow my life and the (hopefully) interesting things i learn each day!

some basics:

i recently graduated from the university of wisconsin with my phd in nutritional sciences and from the institute for integrative nutrition with my health coaching certification. now i am settling in to a new job in clinical research as a study coordinator. i love what i do!

i grew up in a small town in wisconsin, right on lake michigan. after high school i went to washington university in st. louis to get my bachelors degree in biology and psychology. i married my amazing husband, brad, on august 27, 2011 and we live in madison, wi. we also have two dogs, capone and jake, who we spoil rotten – you’ll see them pop up a lot on the blog! i stay busy reading, cooking, crafting, spending time with friends, (sometimes) working out, and blogging.

thanks for reading and i hope you enjoy what you see.

feel free to contact me if you have any questions!
