Jonesing for Joes
Hi guys! How are you?? Loved reading your planning tips! ๐
Dance Trance last night was AMAZEBALLS. If any of you are ever in Orlando, hit me up and weโll take a class- if you like dancing, youโll lurve lurve DT.
Iโm going to say this once and one time onlyโฆ.
I like Dance Trance better than Zumba
Please donโt throw anything at me ๐
Dinner last night was JOES!
Snobby Joes ๐
Itโs one of those recipes that I always come back to- way better than the meaty joeโs I used to enjoy as a kid and the recipe makes a BOATLOAD.
I had my Joes on top of massaged kale and had made dinner in the afternoon, so it was waiting for me when I got home. So. So. Good.
It was a chill night of Dancing with the Stars (Jennifer Grey is breathtaking) and reading before crashing out.
This morning, I munched an apple and took the puppers out:
and made a b-fast cookie to munch after yoga.
The standard recipe with maca, cacao nibs and goji berries mixed in ๐
My friend Kristen is teaching this morning and some work friends and I planned to take her class. Sheโs amazing in *real life* so I can only imagine that sheโll lead an incredible practice. Iโm excited!
See ya later in a yoga noodle state of mind with the first part of a raw tacos recipe <3
Have a great day!!
xoxo,
Gina
Something to do: One more day to get in your Bridal Bootcamp workouts for this week! New one coming atcha TOMORROW ๐
Raw tacos are SO good. I can’t wait for the recipe!
I really want to try snobby joes. I think I could even trick my husband with them!
DT looks like fun!
I love all of your pretty placemats ๐
Unrelated question . . . how old are your puppers? I used to take mine on longer walks but he’s slowing down at 14 and so I limit him to up the block and back. Miss those long walks – and it’s painful to see the disappointment in his face if I go without him! Have a great day.
I keep wanting to take a zumba class, but then I talk myself out of it because I feel like I’m not going to get the moves and I’ll look like a big LOSER!
Just wondering if your going to provide an update on the bodybuilder and how his diet worked out for him.
That snobby joe looks awesome over a kale salad! i have some lentils in my cupboard too….
Wow raw tacos recipe!! I can’t wait for that!!!
have a great day!
Raw tacos? I am intrigued!
Raw tacos? I am intrigued!
Mmmmm taco’s… I cannot wait to see this recipe!
Side note — a big thank you for always having such a positive blog… it makes me smile ear to ear every day & keeps me chipper at work ๐
<3
Dance trance sounds like so much fun! I’m really, REALLY not a dancer but have been doing a few dance-based classes lately (2 of the Les Mills programs, BodyJam and a new one called Sh’Bam) and I love them!! I’m sure you’re far more graceful than me when it comes to dance though. Have a great day! ๐
Yum sloppy joes were one of my favorite childhood dinners!
I still have to try dance trance AND zumba! I am so behind…
I agree– I could never get sick of snobby joes! It’s just such a solidly delicious recipe!
I cannot believe Jennifer Gray is 50! She looks amazing. Perhaps she’s had a whole lot of work done but I’d say in her case it was money well spent. hehe ๐
even if she did have work done, they did a great job- she looks incredible
I need to try DT and Snobby joes! haha both sound amazing and look amazing!
oh my goodness, i want to eat everything you had yesterday!
I love to make sloppy joes with lentils. That is actually on my menu plan for this week. My hubby even likes them and he’s a big meat and potatoes kind of guy. I also <3 raw tacos. Mmmmmmm!
ooo…it’s refreshing to hear you say you like DT more than Z. I would like to try it. Z to me is so fun already so I know I will like DT. Have a great day. Many blessings.
Oo raw tacos, can’t wait.
Hope your having good weather there to be walking those pups, We are having our first snow fall right now!
first SNOW?! ahhhhh!!
it’s 80 here!
80!?!? JEALOUS!
Its about 29F here, and with the wind more like 18F!
Ooh, you sloppy joes recipe is from SparkPeople? LOVE IT! I’m adding this one to my list of things to try stat!
I think it’s so cute how excited you get about dance trance! is that something that you can train to be a teacher like with zumba? You could bring dance trance to valdosta when you go back!
i’m hoping! i want to talk to the owner about maybe teaching after i know all of the dances 100% ๐
Hey Gina, I love your blog and wanted to throw out a topic request to add to the slew of great ones you have already! All the inspirational ones are great, and I would love more on your ideas for making friends and relationships (outside the relationship to with yourself). SO yeah, more life stuff would be awesome!
sure i’ll totally throw some tips in there!!
Dance Trance is Jazzercise…just a different name. Love them both!
you’ve taken dance trance?! that’s so awesome!
Hey Gina!
I’m a long-time reader (and fan!) of your blog, but have been a “lurker” until now….when I had to comment to tell you how STUPENDOUS those vegan choc chip cookies of yours are! I’ve been dairy-free the last few months (makes the nursing babe and I both much happier), and have been playing with vegan baking. Those cookies are hands-down the best chocolate chip cookies I’ve ever had–vegan or not! The texture is perfection :).
Have a fantastic day!
that is so amazing! thanks so much for saying hi ๐ i’m so stoked you liked the cookies!
Dance Trance looks really interesting. I’ll have to check for classes in the area. We tend to be behind the curve on fitness trends so it may be awhile. Still, looks like a blast!
Raw tacos?! I’m excited to see that!!
raw tacos are the best! i love making raw taco nut “meat” and making it extra spicy and it can impress even a devout carnivore ๐ Anyway can’t wait to see what you come up with!
And in a yoga noodle state of mind…that sounds great! I just got done yoga’ing and am feeling kinda that same…light and airy and happy ๐
I wish we had Dance Trance here in Calgary! I started taking Zumba b/c of your blog and love it, so I would LOVE to try out Dance Trance. Maybe someday!?
What are the differences between Dance Trance and Zumba? I take Zumba all the time and the video made Dance Trance seem pretty much the same to me?! ๐
I’ve never done a dance fitness class before. I think I’m still haunted by bad memories of taking jazz when I was 7 haha! ๐
Dance Trance looks like SO much fun. This really makes me miss the zumba classes I used to take last year. It’s sad that I have class when they offer it though ๐
Gina, Do you like the lentil slippy joes or the raw sloppy joes better? Love reading your blog.
i like them both! it depends on what i’m in the mood for ๐
Got it! Thanks! And I am crossing my fingers for your book proposal. Do you know when you are turning it in?
