Sunny, summery weather two days in a row! It was a perfect night for BBQing now that my grilling husband has come home. We also were having a guest over for dinner so I needed to head to the grocery store to pick up a few items. On busy days it's so tempting just to resort to dashing here and there in the mini-van, but I was determined to bike everywhere. So, after biking to pick up my youngest from preschool we headed over to the elementary school to serve at "hot lunch" day. From there we headed up the hill to the local grocery store. I've been pushing myself to set my bike at a higher gear just to feel the burn a little bit more. Having my little taskmaster sitting in the child seat behind me helps as well....she reminds me when I need to pick up the pace!
I felt very Parisian biking home from the store with a baguette sticking out of the grocery bag. Too bad I don't have a wicker basket....
Anyway, finding ways to fit exercise into the regular errands of the day is really the best way for me to make it happen. And it's so much prettier going to the grocery store on a bike when you get scenes like this!
My neighborhood has the most amazing network of greenspaces and trails. And look what was overhead!
