You want fries with that shake?

Source Started the day off shaking at World Beat. Live drummers, yelling, international dance styles…Love. First, I had some toast and eggs with salsa and took a Pure Bar with me for afterwards. The interesting thing about World Beat is that it isn’t pre-choreographed, like Zumba or Dance Trance. Each song is a particular rhythm…

Making and breaking habits

It was a quiche kinda night over here. It took me about 18 years of life to learn that quiche starts with a “q.” 😉 The Pilot came home from work, and I wanted to make something quick and easy so we could hang out a little bit before being sucked into our respective laptops.…

Baby, man and creature

Flowers vino and a pizza picnic with three valentines (a baby, a man and a creature). How lucky does a girl get? 🙂 Hope that you had a fabulous night, too! This morning’s bfast was one of the usual suspects:   (egg puff sandwich with greens, goat cheese and hummus, with strawberries and tea) I…

Freedom to move

Guess who’s in the clear?? Source At my midwife appointment today, she told me I’m “free to do whatever I was doing before.” Music to my ears. Even though I’m still recovering, I feel great and am excited to get back into the things I love. I’m so excited to take a Zumba class this…

About and out

After last blogging about living in cave mode, we were out and about all day today… and it was glorious. I packed up a little breakfast (nothing like a turkey sandwich in the morning) and we went to the squadron to say hi, 2 doctor appointments, a lab appointment and back home to free Miss…

Mental health day

I think it’s pretty apparent from reading the blog that the Pilot works a lot, and works extremely hard. Even when he’s home on the weekends, he’s been working on house stuff (lots of master bedroom, office and nursery furniture assembly lately) since we moved in. He had a couple of extra days off work…

Sugar buzz

I’m still sugar-buzzed from last night.   (GF ones in the middle, regular on the sides) Of course, the ones we messed up were dubbed “eaters” 😉 Everyone came over here to decorate the sugar cookies that mom, nana and I made the other night. Before our friends came over, I rolled out the dough…

Outside the tortilla

Last night’s enchilada’s were a little different than the usual chicken or veg that I’ll make. I’ll usually serve them with rice and beans, but last night the rice and beans were inside the enchi’s <—an idea I got from my “Cooking for Isaiah” cookbook In all my years of enchiladas, I’d never tried them…

Red and green quinoa lentil salad

I’m going to go ahead and blame my tiredness on the weather.   46* and raining all day. That’s gotta be it. Almost every day this week, around 6 pm, I’ve hit a wall. I’ve done a pretty good job fighting through it, but as far as cooking/dinner goes, it’s been a little rough. Lots…

T-giving recipe radar

It’s definitely back to the grind over here… [Egg sandwich + Larabar taken to work] and it feels good 🙂 I taught two classes (and assisted one) this morning, and am back home for a little lunch break before Zumba and Tubing. This is what it looks like.. when a refrigerator cries I scraped the…

Hi friends! Thank you so much for the wonderful birthday wishes <3 I loved reading all them and they made my day even brighter than it already was. I’m up late blogging since we were out partying our faces off! Ok, not really. I went to work, came back to the casa, showered (“I can’t…

Pizza Party

Hey friends <3 How are ya? Hope your weekend is off to a great start! After hot bar, Nordstrom Rack, and an impromptu pizza party, mine definitely is 🙂 I had my gestational diabetes test this morning –deets are on the family page- and as soon as I was given the freedom to eat, the…
