Smoked salmon is back in my life in a big way….

So salty and glorious.

Before coming downstairs to make breakfast, I had to convince the lazy girls it was time to start the day.

The one on the left still has night and day in reverse.. especially after last night. Party animal :)

Some more recent eats:

My all-time favorite Trader Joe’s salad, the Super Spinach

Spinach, pumpkin seeds, cranberries, quinoa, carrots, tomatoes, garbanzo beans, edamame, miso dressing…

This morning, we’re going to take a walk –Bell needs to get out of the house, she was doing sprints last night- and later today, I’m going into work for an hour Tabata training. I’m really excited to see my work friends again, and check out the new class format.

Have a great day and I’ll be back later with a Family post!

For those of you who have also been missing your daily dose of Vies,

here ya go:

Ash and her hubby put that video up last night- the Pilot and I were cracking up watching it. They’ve taught Vies so many cool tricks. Over Easter, they filled Easter eggs with treats, hid them, and taught her how to pop them open with her teeth, so she had her own Easter egg hunt. Bella liked watching the video, too.. it makes her happy that her sis is so happy.

My goal for the day is to get out of the house.. after almost 2 weeks, cabin fever has officially set in. My friend Emily is coming to hang out in a little while, and then we’ll see where the day takes us.

Hope you have a very happy Friday!

“Want a sandwich?”

January 12, 2012

It’s definitely cave mode over here.   I walked outside this morning to let Bell do her thing, and the fresh air felt so nice. It kind of reminds me of when I’d be home sick from school and then on the day I went back, the sun would seem so bright. Maybe we’ll take [...]

A different tree

January 2, 2012

Today was spent running errands and taking down Christmas. I’m usually so bummed to take down our decorations because usually I have no idea where or when I’ll see them again, so it’s pretty amazing that we’ll still be here next year. It wasn’t quite as sad So it went from this: back to this: [...]
