So, I wasnโ€™t quite sure what I was going to blog about today.

Itโ€™s been challenging to get back in the routine after being away, and Iโ€™ve been munching omelets for dinner.

So delicious, so easy.

After last nightโ€™s omelet, I got inspiredโ€ฆ

lemon

and made some Meyer Lemon Lavender Macaroons ๐Ÿ™‚

Theyโ€™re just like my classic blonde macaroons, with refreshing, sweet citrus, and a fragrant lavender aroma.

roons

But the thing is, there are way too many of them.

My roomies and I could eat them all, but that would be no fun ๐Ÿ˜‰

Want some?

    incorporate more yoga into my workout regimen [and be consistent with it].

  2. Rachel on March 3, 2011 at 5:13 pm

    I would love to incorporate swimming into my workout routine. I’m not a swimmer, so this will definitely be a challenge for me!

  3. Kate on March 3, 2011 at 5:13 pm

    Stop mindless eating! I’ve lost 35 pounds since last summer, so I want to really get focused and knock that last bit off while developing permanent habits that will turn into a healthy lifestyle for good!! ๐Ÿ™‚

  4. Kandi on March 3, 2011 at 5:14 pm

    My fitness goal this spring…sweat to Jillian Michaels and strengthy train to her as well!

    Good luck to me for the macaroons!

  5. Mellissa on March 3, 2011 at 5:18 pm

    This spring I want to work on learning dance choreography, and stop saying that I’m choreo-challenged!

  6. Cindy on March 3, 2011 at 5:22 pm

    My spring goal is to start working out again. I’m moving in April/May and the move will cut my commute time from about 80 minute one way (YUCK!) to a 20-25 minute WALK, a 10 minute train ride and a 5 minute cab ride! This means I will have time to in my schedule to get back to the gym and get my cardio on!

  7. Amber L on March 3, 2011 at 5:24 pm

    My spring fitness goal is to complete two 5k’s by the end of May! Part of that goal is to my mile under ten minutes!

  8. Jessica @ Healthy Dairyland on March 3, 2011 at 5:25 pm

    My goal is to train for and run my first half marathon. I’m all signed up for the Rockford Half Marathon in May. There’s no looking back now!

  9. CJ on March 3, 2011 at 5:26 pm

    My spring fitness goal is to get back into fitness. I’ve seriously slacked for about 6 months now and need to get back into my sneakers!

  10. sarah (sarah learns) on March 3, 2011 at 5:26 pm

    wow, i’m late to comment on this one! i’m determined to win those macaroons someday! ๐Ÿ™‚ my spring goal is to complete the couch to 5k program (i’m on week 3) and actually run a 5k (i’m all signed up and everything!).

  11. April on March 3, 2011 at 5:29 pm

    That sounds amazing! Meyer lemons are all the rage right now ๐Ÿ™‚

    My spring goal is to lose 15lbs and to incorporate exercise into my daily routine. I am starting a new internships in a new town and my co-workers seem very active so I want to keep up!

  12. Amisha on March 3, 2011 at 5:31 pm

    My goal is to beat my PR in the May half marathon I am registered for. Those macaroons look delicious!

  13. Elisa on March 3, 2011 at 5:32 pm

    Anything citrus calls my name! My spring fitness goal is to get my body fat percentage measured and then work on reducing it a little. I’ve gotten some sweet muscles on this bod in the past year but you can’t really see them ๐Ÿ˜‰

    Thanks for the give-away Gina!

  14. Tabi on March 3, 2011 at 5:34 pm

    My spring fitness goal is to EAT THOSE ROONS. Haha. OR, to increase my hot yoga attendance from 2X/week to at least 3-4. I looooooooooove it <3

  15. Emily on March 3, 2011 at 5:34 pm

    Training to finished the Solider Field 10 Miler (05/28/2011)in under 1:30:00. And also incorporate Bikram back into my workouts at least once a week.

    To fit in 4-5 days of exercise a week and sign up for some 5Ks!!!

  19. Jacquelyn on March 3, 2011 at 5:38 pm

    I think I am going to make it a warm weather goal to be happy with my body and eat foods I love (I do love healthy foods) that make me feel good and not worry so much about how I look in a swimsuit. Or I am going to try at least!

  20. michelle on March 3, 2011 at 5:42 pm

    TONE!

  21. Tracy on March 3, 2011 at 5:44 pm

    I’m stepping up my weightlifting routine, slowly adding a little more weight. Also, being mindful not to do too much cardio (as I have a habit of doing).

    Thanks for sharing the roons!

  22. Christine on March 3, 2011 at 5:44 pm

    My goal is to continue my cardio and strength training routine as long as I can during my pregnancy. I;m 6 months pregnant, hope to at least keep exercising to 8!

  23. Anya on March 3, 2011 at 5:46 pm

    My goal: cross my half marathon finish line with a huge smile on my face ๐Ÿ™‚

  24. Danielle on March 3, 2011 at 5:47 pm

    To start working out a bit more ha ha ๐Ÿ™‚

  25. Jamie Bielata on March 3, 2011 at 5:48 pm

    The roons look yummmy.

    My spring fitness goal is to lose some of the pudge I have gained over the past few months and get happy and healthier with myself.

  26. kels on March 3, 2011 at 5:51 pm

    more more muscle and do more group workouts vs. solo.

  27. Claire on March 3, 2011 at 5:52 pm

    My fitness goal is to run my first 5k since I became ill with a chronic illness last year. I fully expect to run much slower than I used to, but I am hoping I can keep my competitive instincts under control and just enjoy myself!

  28. Catherine on March 3, 2011 at 5:53 pm

    I’d love to get back into doing yoga consistently. Also, dance more!

  29. SaraK on March 3, 2011 at 5:53 pm

    My spring goal is to run a marathon….which I am doing on Saturday! So excited!

  30. Ginny on March 3, 2011 at 5:54 pm

    Be consistent!!

  31. Rochelle on March 3, 2011 at 5:55 pm

    Oh they sound so delish!! My spring goal would be too try to consume only whole natural foods, no packaged stuff, white flours sugars etc, and to uncorporate more strength training in my workout schedule for sure!

  32. Jules on March 3, 2011 at 5:57 pm

    My spring fitness goal is to get back into spinning – it’s been almost a year!

  33. Hilary on March 3, 2011 at 5:57 pm

    My spring goal is to complete my first half marathon. I don’t have any time goals in mind, I just want to have fun, work hard, and complete the race!

  34. Kelly on March 3, 2011 at 6:00 pm

    OMG I would love to win these, lemon desserts are my fav! (besides chocolate of course:) ) My spring goal is to get back in shape for summer…and I’m starting to accomplish that by attending some really fun fitness classes!

  35. Rebecca on March 3, 2011 at 6:00 pm

    My goal is to honor my body. This means not exercising to extremes, eating intuitively, and doing things that really make me feel good. I expect my body to do so much for me on a daily basis, so it’s high time that I stop over-exerting myself, take a breath, and truly LISTEN.

  36. Victoria on March 3, 2011 at 6:00 pm

    get back into strength training. I was on top of the ball but then fell off the wagon. I’m really hoping to get back into it because I have certainly lost some muscle definition (which I had been loving!)

  37. Danielle B. on March 3, 2011 at 6:02 pm

    My spring fitness goal is to run my first 5K!

  38. Jenn @ Frost Bites on March 3, 2011 at 6:02 pm

    Sign up for 2nd half-marathon…woo-hoo!

  39. Holley on March 3, 2011 at 6:03 pm

    My spring goal is to start swimming more. I have no choice now if I want to keep my endurance up since I found out I have a stress fracture ๐Ÿ™‚

  40. Laura T. on March 3, 2011 at 6:03 pm

    run outside as much as i can!

  41. Christy on March 3, 2011 at 6:04 pm

    My spring goal is to be consistent with my training regardless of what life throws at me!

  42. sarah @ eatliveaustin on March 3, 2011 at 6:06 pm

    my spring fitness goal is to incorporate more weightlifting into my exercise.

  43. Nicole on March 3, 2011 at 6:09 pm

    My spring fitness goal is to incorporate more pilates and yoga to my routine and also go to acupunture. I love it. I use to go twice a month but it is too expensive for me so I only go every so often for a tune up!! ๐Ÿ™‚ Have a beautiful day Gina.

  44. Alison (Fueling for Fitness) on March 3, 2011 at 6:13 pm

    I really want to make serious strides with my yoga practice this spring. I’ll start by mastering the crow pose for longer than 2 seconds. :S

  45. Jillian on March 3, 2011 at 6:20 pm

    I think i’m going to finally start training for my first 5k! That’ll (hopefully) encourage me to think outside the elliptical at the gym. ๐Ÿ˜‰

  46. Maddie on March 3, 2011 at 6:26 pm

    make it through my lululemon’s commit30 challenge in april. my commit30 is yoga. everyday. for 30 days. I’m excited about the transformation!

  47. Jodie on March 3, 2011 at 6:27 pm

    My spring goal is to build my mileage back up and to try new classes.

  48. Carrie on March 3, 2011 at 6:30 pm

    My goal is to heal my hip so I can run a 12 miler in June.

  49. Monica on March 3, 2011 at 6:33 pm

    To be healthy, strong, and full of energy!!!!!

  50. Emily on March 3, 2011 at 6:33 pm
