Continue reading →: Friday Five: Running Update
TGIF! Another week has come and gone and I am SO ready for the weekend. Aren’t you? In honor of this weekend’s big event – the Cleveland marathon – and the fact that I haven’t posted a running update in a while, here are some running-related randomness for this Friday Five.…

Continue reading →: Hashtag Bashtag (A.K.A. an awesome weekend)
WOW, what an amazing, fun, busy weekend! It was definitely one of those weekends where I kind of feel like I need a weekend just to relax from my weekend … if you know what I mean? The past few years I’ve gone to NY for Mother’s Day to spend…

Continue reading →: Meatless Monday: Freekeh Salad with Chickpeas and Goat Cheese
While I’m back to eating meat (I gave it up for Lent) and have been for some time, I still enjoy the occasional meatless meal. I’d been dying to try freekeh for a while now – after hearing it dubbed the “new quinoa” I knew that I had to give…

Living downtown, B and I don’t get to other neighborhoods on a regular basis. It’s just hard, you know – when nearly everything you want is just a quick walk away, why hop in the car to drive somewhere else? Earlier this week, though, B and I spent the night out…

Continue reading →: A Dazzzzzzling Weekend
Wow, what a weekend. It was SO awesome that I’m pretty much speechless. Okay, not really – but I am suffering from some minor laryngitis … for real. But at least I can type, right? Friday started with a 10.5 mileish run BEFORE work. Yes, that’s right – I ran…

Phew, we’re back from a pretty busy/nonstop weekend. The past few days have included some good meals, some art, a comedy show, and two races (including one PR!). Here are some picture to give you an idea: Our weekend “started” on Thursday with a night at the Cleveland Art Museum…

The other day I came across a list of the most hipster foods there are. Hipster foods! And can you believe that out of that list, B and I enjoy most of them on a regular basis? Like, a LOT of them? For example, here are just a few: Cold…

April may be flying by but I’m pretty much enjoying every speedy minute of it. The end of the month means that I have some fabulous things to look forward to: 1. DAZZLE the District! I am SO excited for this event – happening NEXT FRIDAY. The Dazzle the District…

I may have a hummus problem. The other day I realized I’d eaten hummus, as part of a meal, 4 days in a row. I know there are worse things to claim, but 4 days in a row? That’s nearly a week. Wonder if I can keep the streak going…

It’s been a little over a week since I was in sunny Costa Rica, relaxing in the hot baths, sunning myself on the beach, ziplining and rappelling. So for today’s Wordless Wednesday, I’m reminiscing … and sharing some vacation photos. #SorryImNotSorry That’s all for now. As they say in…
Hello,
I’m Melissa
Welcome to I Crashed The Web — proof that I’ve been oversharing online since the early days of blogging. It started as a blog (back when that was cool), morphed into a mom blog (when that was cool), and now it’s my happy place for all the things I love: running, baking, reading, traveling and life with my family of five.
