so, um…what the deuce is going on with me anyway? I can’t help but see that I haven’t started in any of these world cups of 2013. I know. Very astute of me to notice. Germany has been saved one imrie’s-a-dufus-experience so far this year. (Unlucky for Deutschland, I say.) But why? you ask. Well, [...]

Whether you’re a biathlon fanatic, or simply a fan of sudsin’ up in the tub, I bring good news. Rocky Mountain Soap Company has created a Winter Bliss soap that smells like a brisk cross country ski on a bluebird day. AND the proceeds will support me on my way to Sochi. I know, right? [...]

A couple quick shots from Bled, Slovenia…swans, castles and liquid h2o. not the usual winter scene. Two world cups down, one to go before christmas. It’s been a tough start to the year in terms of getting my body to move the way I had planned it to. Not enough rest at the right time [...]

Oh my goodness gracious me, I’ve stumbled across a super food. I know. This kind of thing doesn’t just happen. Not on your daily stroll to the mail box. But it did to me. I recently tore open a parcel from Manitoba Harvest Hemp- THANKS- (how did you know I love both parcel’s AND superfoods?). [...]

So good to be home. Even when everywhere but Canmore is luxuriating in a hot spring sun. It’s -16 and it’s still so good. I am, as always, loving my sunny kitchen and all the creativity it holds. And on this chilly morning, these little gems stole the show. But before this becomes a food [...]

Six countries, seventeen races and one triumphant cribbage skunk since December- I have to say, I’ve got a pretty nice little winter shaping up here. And I’m happy as ever. With a fabulous little sojourn back to my hometown at Christmas, and my nest in Canmore, I’m craving tour life once again. Soon I will [...]

Twenty six hours after skipping out my door, here I am in Ostersund, Sweden. And it’s not what I remember. At all. A tiny temperature change (28 degrees warmer than last year) is the reason. And where’s the snow? But I’m not concerned, the stored snow is sufficient, and some legitimate flakes fell from the [...]

I could not be in a more fabulous ski town. Seriously. Everywhere else in the world, they are cancelling ski races. Big races. All because not a flake has fluttered from the sky. And where snowmakers usually pick up mother nature’s slack, it’s not even cold enough for them to get to work. So you [...]
