Yoga Jeans… Orgasm in Denim!

Now, I saw the video first.  And after carefully considering, “Jeans? Husband? Jeans? Husband?”  -husband did come out the winner… but only because he’s making me pancakes… and by a mere hair (I loves me pancakes!)- I came to the breathless conclusion,
Holy Moly!  I must get me a pair of these freakin’ jeans!
Because, by [...]

Lululemon… A Little Tongue-in-Cheekiness!

I guess when you feel you’ve beat the odds, shown the world and pretty much flipped the bird at all of our big retailers-flaunting increased sales and resisting the urge to jump on the markdown wagon- you can have a little fun… after all, it is the homeland- home city, in fact- hosting the 2010 [...]

And, in case there’s some confusion to whom I might be referring, let me be clear… I’m talking about Google, of course… the arbiter of all things… [...]

Downward Dog-gin’ It!

Would I be in danger of being stoned… or possibly flayed… right here on my yoga mat if I admitted I don’t like Downward Facing Dog?
Occasionally, in the heat of Sun Salutations, I find some solace in taking the posture… sighing into it… but then, remembering my form, back to work.
Unlike Savasana, where the work [...]

Chocolate Yoga… God Must Be A Woman!

Look, I’m not sure I’m buying this trend exactly… but anything that involves chocolate warrants an open mind!!
