Karri said...: I wish I could be committed to running like you! I go in spurts and I'm not in the spurt right now!; October 9, 2007 at 11:28 PM
Supercool Mom said...: Hey, I just checked out your sprinkle obsession...have you joined a 12-step program for that yet?

(great pics) However, I feel that sprinkles, while lovely, interfere with the integrity of the frosting thus diminishing my enjoyment of the baked good they reside upon.; October 10, 2007 at 12:35 AM
Wendi said...: Hot mama--I feel that the sprinkles serve a much greater purpose than looking lovely. The frosting in and of itself, has an irritating pasty residue that lingers and frustrates the palatte. The sprinkles cover up the frosting and enhance my enjoyment of the baked goods by greatly improving the texture and overall sensation.; October 10, 2007 at 9:05 AM
Supercool Mom said...: I think this deserves a poll - sprinkles or no sprinkles?; October 10, 2007 at 9:25 AM
crystal said...: Man does not live by frosting alone! (although i'd certainly be willing to give it a try.) I'd have to argue that texture and form are integral to the beauty and art of culinary expression. Sprinkles give frosting a purpose; there should be no garnish gracing a piece of food that does not also have a purpose and give a contribution to the dish.

Besides, they're really cute.; October 10, 2007 at 10:53 AM
kay said...: i am sneaking a peek at your blog via hotmama.; October 10, 2007 at 11:23 AM
Michelle said...: Love the pictures of your run. Everytime I'm out on my bike looking at the beautiful red rocks I often wish I had my camera. I think next time I ride I'll bring it along and snap some pix. Thanks for the insperation!; October 10, 2007 at 12:23 PM
Supercool Mom said...: Kay's my blogfriend, she wanted me to warn you that she's not a stalker. I must therefore assume that she is a pro-sprinkler, intrigued by the recent debate.; October 10, 2007 at 1:01 PM
kay said...: I ♥ sprinkles!!!; October 10, 2007 at 1:35 PM
Carrie and Troy Keiser said...: Gotta have sprinkles! :-) love the beautifyl pix, too. I love fall trees.; October 10, 2007 at 3:12 PM
Wendi said...: When I make sugar cookies, sometimes I forgo the frosting all together and put the crystal sprinkles on before I bake them.; October 10, 2007 at 5:22 PM
Supercool Mom said...: Unheard of! The cookie is simply a vehicle for the thick layer of pink frosting on a sugar cookie. Were there no frosting, the cookie would merely be flour, butter and sugar, and yet with frosting sprinkles are superfluous.; October 10, 2007 at 6:33 PM
Wendi said...: Oh Hot Mama--I'm sure going to miss reading your blog after you GET STRUCK BY LIGHTNING!!!!; October 10, 2007 at 9:02 PM
Holly said...: Hi there Crystal! Thank you for visiting my blog--it's always fun to make new bloggy friends--especially those that run!! :)

What a gorgeous route for your run--that might make me forget what I was doing...almost.

BTW, I added a link for those recipes. I've enjoyed reading some of yours and will definitely try some out soon!; October 11, 2007 at 8:21 AM
Michelle Alley said...: I used to live up on South Mountain in Draper and ran almost everyday next to those beautiful mountains. Such great memories and such a great post! Thanks for sharing :); October 11, 2007 at 1:21 PM
Heather S. said...: Okay, I saw all the posts about sprinkles and had to come read. I totally do NOT like sprinkles. The only time sprinkles are acceptable is on Lofthouse cookies with the big fluffy frosting and the SOFT sprinkles. Just my 2 cents worth of a comment.; October 11, 2007 at 3:18 PM

oda41143 Missy said...: Thank you for adding me to your list of friends :) I feel sooooo special!!!! You inspire me. I really mean that. I really wish you could have come to KY with the other Utah girls :(; October 11, 2007 at 5:38 PM
Cecily R said...: I was born in Boise but only lived there for a few months. I feel a kinship with Idahoans...

Now I REALLY want to run (shuffle) with you! I have a hip flexor injury that would help your grandma lap me too, so we could be running soul mates you and me!; October 11, 2007 at 5:42 PM
Supercool Mom said...: Go Stevens Girl!! Let's start an Anti-Sprinkle Coalition!!; October 11, 2007 at 10:50 PM
crystal said...: Well, Wendi & I will just form a Sprinkle Lobby and have a march. Bring it on!; October 11, 2007 at 11:41 PM
