Tuesday Night Book Club
Heyyyy ๐ Happy Indian Food Wednesday! Howโs your morning going?
After work yesterday, I was so stoked to hit up a Bikram class.. just because I could! In Valdosta, I couldnโt do Bikram on a random Tuesday (unless I wanted to drive two hours), so Iโm definitely taking advantage ๐
Post-yoga snackage:
Chocolate cherry bomb dot com ๐
-1 C almond milk
-1 scoop vanilla Sun Warrior
-1 T raw cacao powder
-1 C frozen organic cherries
-Stevia, vanilla and cinnamon
-1/2 banana
Eight months later and Iโm still not sick of this smoothie- itโs that good, I promise ๐
After my smoothie, shower and making my cousin a grilled cheese, I met up with my aunt and her friends at OLV for book club.
Discussion Riesling:
We shared the mezze plate:
Tzatziki, tabbouli, baba ganouj, hummus, falafel and pita
and the most beautiful Chevre salad with greens, beets, mango, toasted pecans and goat cheese
I had a lot of fun chatting with all of the ladies, even though I havenโt finished the book (Sarahโs Key) yet. After hearing what they had to say about it though, Iโm not sure if I want to finish it :/ It sounds really disturbing and Iโm so engulfed in this book right now that Sarahโs Key may take a back seat:
Has anyone else read it? In an almond shell, Good to Great is an incredibly well-researched book examining the tactics of companies that maintained their incredible financial performance for at least 15 years. Thereโs a lot of knowledge you can take from the book and apply to your job and to life in general. Loving it so far ๐
This morning Iโm off to a meeting for work, sending a care package to that one man I have a crush on, and taking a Zumba class!! Iโm going to wear all of my Zumba gear and talk to them about teaching while Iโm here ๐ Hopefully it will *work out* โ I miss teaching so much!
Stay tuned for a guest post from a very special someoneโฆ.
xoxo,
Gina

Going out to eat for Indian Food Wednesday?? Hereโs a post for Indian Food Newbies ๐
Something to talk about: Are there any fitness classes you canโt wait to try but arenโt offered near you?? I am SO excited to try Rebounderz- an indoor trampoline workout. We didnโt have it in Tucson and it looks like a lot of fun ๐
Something else to do: If youโre in the voting kinda moodโฆ hereโs the link and my Entry #1 post. Thanks so much to those of you who have voted already!
It seems like so many book club books these days are so sad! I’d much rather read something happy and lighthearted.
Rebounderz sounds so fun! I used to love trampolines as a kid and I never realized how much of a workout they are!
Just read my other favourite fitness blog and found an article regarding your posting-it’s like a 2 for 1 ๐ http://www.glamour.com/health-fitness/blogs/vitamin-g/2010/09/afternoon-snack-the-fitnessist.html
so cool!!
Good to GREAT is one of my favorite books!
