June 1, 2014 By Jessie Benson Leave a Comment

Hi all! I took a few months off from my 30-day challenges, but its time to get back at it! I mean, its summer. Its tank top season (and bikini season) and I know I want to have lean, toned arms and shoulders. So June is going to be a push-up challenge! We are going to work our way up to 50 pushups in a row. Now, if this is too easy for any men (or strong women!), I suggest you double Continue Reading

By Jess in MinneapolisWhere did we leave off with my wardrobe consultation with A La Mode Wardrobe Consulting?Oh, yes, SHOES! After Carly helped me sort out my weak shoe situation, we moved on to pants and skirts. It was obvious very quickly that I had plenty of bright denim......yet I was lacking in basic well-fitting neutral pants. I had plenty of bright but not enough neutral, so she directed Continue Reading

Fits on the Road: Exploring Oregon by Foot- Part 2

June 9, 2013 By Jessie Benson 2 Comments

Part 1 of "Fits on the Road- Exploring Oregon by Foot" was all about the hiking. Part 2 of this exploration was still an exploration by foot, (most of the time it was a tour by footsies covered in Tom's) But part two of this tour has a bit of a beer theme. After two nights in Crater Lake, we headed east to the town of Bend. I didn't know much about Bend beforehand, except that it was a bit Continue Reading
