Gimme Gimme S’more
โFirst you take the graham
You stick the chocolate on the graham
Then you roast the โmallow
When the ‘mallows flaming… you stick it on the chocolate. Then cover with the other end.
Then you stuff.โ
Movie guesses anyone?? For the record, I may or may not have had a crush on Benny the Jet Rodriguez back in the day ๐ Iโm just sayinโ
Iโm a little (over)excited for one thing Iโm sure to enjoy this weekend: SโMORES! I havenโt had a sโmore sinceโฆ maybe middle school??? I got the goods for healthier sโmores at the amazing health food store, and also spent the day SHOPPING!
I got a little gifty for myself, to keep the tootsies warm in freezing Gatlinburg
Bella approved ๐
She is a little con artist lately. When the pilot and I got home from the gym tonight, Bella was out of her crate, gallivanting around and enjoying her freedom. Little punk ๐
Some of todayโs eats:
Bar
Veg
Kraut
I feel like my girls Kristen and the twins feasting on kraut. Iโd forgotten how DELICIOUS and SALTY it is! Not just a condiment anymore.. itโs a delicious little snack ๐
Workout-wise, I cleaned the casa today (definitely a workout!), did weights with Jeni (shoulders, chest and triceps) and ran 2 miles followed by 20 minutes of walking (at 4.2mph, all at 2.5% incline).
Weโre packing up for Gatlinburg ๐ Iโm scared of the cold and ghosts, but excited to have my yoga mat and internet connection with me. I heard a rumor there are outlet malls nearby ๐
See ya on the road!
Much love
G$
I want to try that bar SO badly! I can never find it anywhere though…bummer.
I am definitely jealous of your s’mores ๐ Next time I hit up my health food store I’ll be on the lookout for those ingredients!
Are the slippers from VS? I got a pair a few years back and still wear them all the time…they’re so cozy!
Enjoy your road trip with the pilot!!
yes they’re from vs! i love them so far ๐
Warm socks = delicious ๐ Hope you guys have a great trip!
lovin’ the socks, very cute! Can’t wait to hear about your trip! xoxo
Have fun packing and a great trip!!
Love the healthy version of the Smores..may need to try that. Your socks remind me of my fuzzy socks but longer. I love mine i wear them all the time, especially with my Uggs. ๐
Yes, there are outlets. They have a nice Coach outlet there. Its on the exit road towards Dollywood and a huge indoor waterpark.
Have fun! Merry Christmas!
The best part of Gatlinburg is the shopping!
Have a great trip!
OMG love that movie. Straight out of my childhood! Anytime I say “forever” I repeat myself “foreeeveeerrr.”
lol! forever. foreverrrrrrrr. forever
Ah SANDLOT. I just have to say that my brother made me watch that with him at least a 100 times. I had it memorized at one point! Those smores look delish!
Hi G$ ๐
I have a question – on the road travelling, with your yoga mat and internet connection – what kinda of things to do you do? Do you do yoga from memory, bring videos or stream videos? Any video (bought, rented or streamed) suggestions?
I’m looking to do the same sort of thing while at the in-laws in freezing Omaha.
Thanks!
Meggy
hey meggyd-
i’ll usually bring some dvds with me (nyc ballet company workout, zumba winsor pilates) and will also use yogadownload.com and itunes for yoga podcasts. i did yogadownload almost every day in the hotel last time i went to fresno- it was a lifesaver!
Thanks so much for the tips and recommendations!
The Sandlot! And I totally had a crush on Benny ๐
Oh my gosh, The Sandlot is such a great movie! Love it! Cute post!
Maybe it is the fact I am about to head home for the holidays & see my fam, but this post made me so so happy / nostalgic this morning!
Heroes get remembered but legends never die, follow your heart kid, and you’ll never go wrong.
Happy holidays!
i LOVEEEE sandlot. i used to think that if only I could meet benny, he would totally realize that we were meant to be haha.
cute socks and yummmmmmmy s’mores!!
Oh Sandlot!! One of my old favorites. My nickname my dad and brother gave me was actually SMALLS when I was younger but it has stuck with me! Now most of my friends call me Smalls.lol
LOVE the Sandlot. Could watch it everyday.
Love the S’mores!! And I loved the Sandlot =)
xo

Where did you find those grahams???!!! since going GF, and vegan, I havent found any graham crackers that fit the bill! Wow, those look amazing!!!!!!!!!! The m’mallows are yummy too and of course Dagoba or SCharffen Berger are the bomb ๐ And the RawVolution..b/c of you I’m gonna hunt that bar down and try one! Have a great trip, Gina!
i found them at the health food store! let me know if you’d like me to send you some ๐
Those s’more fixins look deliiiicious! And those slippers are too cute:) I have a pink pair just like em! Good luck packing up and have a safe trip!
haha! sandlot ๐ totally had the biggest crush on him back in the day espesh when he was doin his running thing from the dog ๐
Yes! S’mores. LOVE THEM!
Totally love your sock/slippers, they look so comfy!
Cute slippers/socks!! Love those.
Also, I totally had a crush on Benny the Jet, too! I’d have fought you for him back in the day. ๐
hahaha, bring it ๐
I still say “FOR-EV-ERRRRRR” all the time with my friends. Those who get it, I love forever! That is the “Stand By Me” of the mid-20s generation, I think! (Though I still love Stand By Me)
Sooo… I’m guessing you got those graham crackers from the health food store! I am going to search WF and mine HFS around here because gluten-free, trans-fat free & HFCS-free = perfect graham cracker!
I LOVE S’mores! Hope you enjoy yours to the fullest.
Safe travels, my dear ๐
yay for smores! i want to find those mallows so i can have some!
Have you ever tried a roasted banana instead of a marshmellow? It is the best smore I’ve ever had! Hope you have fun
Ah Sandlot. What great memories!
Oh, the sandlot..love!! ๐ ๐ Didn’t everyone have a crush on Benny?? ๐ Love your s’more. I want s’more..s’more what?? ๐
Ooooooh, I recently made coconut milk cinnamon-graham ice cream with these whole wheat grahams I found–it was awesome! You’ve got me thinking I should’ve thrown some chocolate in there too, though… ๐
Cute anime marshmallows!
yessss! love benny the jet, he was so cute! ๐
Mmm, I’m learning to warm up to sauerkraut!! I had it in a raw French Canadian restaurant (in Montreal) recently, and I thought it was ingenious of them to “dye” the sauerkraut a light pink with beet juice! It was gorgeous, girly, AND tasty! ๐
Mmmmmm….smores! We have an outdoor fire pit so we do those every now and then when guests come over. People get really excited about them! ๐
I loveeeee smores!! So yummy and comforting!
Those s’mores are crazy healthy! I can’t believe you haven’t had one since middle school! THAT AIN’T RIGHT! I have them every summer at the beach!
Have a blast honey baby ๐
