Fitness starts in the kitchen for me, too.

Fitness whole stack of pancakes in my mouth, that is.

Sounds like a real... pain in the deck.

I'm sorry, I'll go now.

Ooof, that sounds like a fuckin nightmare.

New Jersey is a funny place. It's not very large, and a significant portion of the northern part of the state is essentially a suburb of New York City, while a significant portion of the southern part is a suburb of Philadelphia (with all the good and bad that comes along with that).

But it's fundamentally beautiful and varied temperate coastal land. Because of how things are, though, you can drive from a warm sandy beach to a mountaintop surrounded by productive farmland in an hour and a half, while stopping in a handful of crime ridden ghettos AND a few of the richest counties in the country along your way.
