A Dilemma [Giveaway Time]
Hi friends! Howโs your morning going? The weekend is in sight!
(LOVE love lilies)
Sorry to those of ya who wanted a better shot of my shoes yesterday! Iโm new at posting fashion-y stuff, so I appreciate your feedbackโฆ Iโm a work in progress ๐ Here ya go:
So, I wasnโt quite sure what I was going to blog about today.
Itโs been challenging to get back in the routine after being away, and Iโve been munching omelets for dinner.
So delicious, so easy.
After last nightโs omelet, I got inspiredโฆ
and made some Meyer Lemon Lavender Macaroons ๐
Theyโre just like my classic blonde macaroons, with refreshing, sweet citrus, and a fragrant lavender aroma.
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 ๐
Want some?
Just leave a comment with your spring fitness goal and Iโll be happy to send some along to one lucky winner. Iโll choose the future roon-holder tomorrow (Friday) am when I wake up ๐ [Everyone can enter- one of my last giveaway winners was in England!]
Off to work I go. See ya this afternoon! <3
xoxo

I just tried raw macaroons for the first time from Whole Paycheck! They were really good, but these sound better ๐ My spring fitness goal is to lose 25lbs by the time my wedding rolls around in July and also to start running more since I just signed up for the chicago marathon!!
To run my first 10K
my spring fitness goal is to get ripped for my wedding in April! I’ve actually been using your bridal bootcamp workouts that you posted a while back ๐
My spring fitness goal is to run 6 miles in 60 minutes ๐ It’s something Ive been really working hard to achieve, and I’m determined to do it before I run a 10K with my boyfriend in July. Thanks GINA!
My fitness goal is to practice more yoga and improve my running speed – I have a half in May I want to PR at!
Spring fitness goal — get a buff bod for my wedding! I’m running my first half marathon in April, then I plan on shredding with Jillian Michaels for 30 days to get toned. I hope it works!
I’m running my 2nd 5K at the end of this month, so my Spring fitness goal is to knock the socks off of the last 5K I did (on Thanksgiving.) I think I can do it, but I haven’t been training too well (er, at all, lately) so my sub-goal is to ACTUALLY START RUNNING, hahaha.
i’ve been wanting to try your macaroons for so long. ๐
my spring fitness goals are to train for a 15K that i’m running in may. I’m already almost 2 weeks into it. ๐
Also, to start doing yoga more often again!
I want to run a half marathon this spring! And I’m getting pretty excited about it, too! ๐
I am getting ready for the Warrior Dash in June, so my goal is to get super fit for that! I want to be able to complete every obstacle on the day of the race. I have been working out 4 days a week!
I’m working on my upper body strength. I am 5 months preggo, and I figure I have 4 months to get used to all that lifting, bending and carrying ๐
I want to set a PR in my 10k (3/19) and do well in my 10M (4/3) AND 1/2 Marathon (4/30) that I am training for!!
I’m in. ๐ My Spring goal is to make fitness a seemless part of my life.
Those sound beautiful and unique!
My spring fitness goal is to be prepared for THREE 1/2 marathons in 2 months. I’m doing St. Louis, Drake, and Dam to Dam (all midwestern races), and they range from early April to early June.
My spring fitness goal is the complete my first half-marathon at the end of April. I started really running 4 days a week in January, so I’m on track thus far!
I want to do more Yoga! I’ve been a running fool latley and I need to broaden my horizons!
My fitness goal is the Iron Girl 1/2 marathon in April – I just did my first race (a 15K!) and am so excited to run more races! yay macaroons <3
Planning to finish the C25K in spring.
I’m in. ๐ My Spring goal is to make fitness a seamless part of my life.
My spring fitness goal is running my first half marathon! This week was the first “official” week of training and so far so good! I need those macaroons to keep me fueled!! ๐
Mmm lavender always reminds me of my trip to France.
And My goal this spring is to run my first marathon!
My spring fitness goal is to continue with my exercise regimen of spinning and boot camps, but also incorporate outside running once the weather gets better! I have a group of friends that are marathon runners and want me to tag along — so I hope by the time I get out there I’ll actually be able to keep up with them! ๐
My spring fitness goal is actually to be less goal-oriented with my fitness. This includes, but is not limited to: stopping and smelling the flowers on a run and taking charleston lessons.
My spring fitness goal is to cut down my 5k time of about 35 minutes to 30 minutes. Yes it’s only 5 minutes, but they can seem like forever when you’re coming back after an injury haha!
I use to be super super (ok obsessively) motivated and i always got my workout no matter what, now im a little more laid back but that can lead to skipping workouts so my spring goal is to get my sweat motivation back and to stop skipping the gym!
(my other spring goal is to eat some macaroons!)
My spring fitness goal is to start training for a triathlon!!! I am not a strong swimmer, I am scared of riding bikes and running is no fun!!! So, I’ll just put them all together and get over my fear somehow!! Gotta start somewhere!! ๐
My spring fitness goals are:
to start running the whole 30 minutes (i’m doing a begginer program From Runner’s World)
to kick (my own) ass by attending a boxing class ๐
Hope you do get that book deal!
bye!
Running my first half marathon in April, and sticking with my training plan.
I get so excited for your giveaways! My Spring fitness goal is to build up my stamina for running and continue with my weight training!
alright. my spring fitness goal is to simply get moving. ๐
i stopped dancing professionally last year, and haven’t quite mentally been able to get myself to do anything too active again, especially any dancing, because it just makes me a bit sad !
but excuses aside, i really hafta get moving. ๐ i ordered a wicking shirt yesterday, as per your suggestions on that reader’s request you did a while back ๐ and when the weather warms up a bit, i want to start running a bit !
Lemon lavender macaroons?! My heart leapt when I saw this post. YUMMY!

Those omelets look delish!
My spring fitness goal is to walk 5 or 6 miles daily! Sounds boring, but I love it!
My primary spring fitness goals are to:
-master the fast salsa routine in zumba
-trim 2 minutes of my road biking mile
-hold a plank for 2 minutes (sad but true!)
My spring fitness goal is to keep up with Body Pump and my 5k training plan. I’m starting to see new muscle definition and it’s awesome! ๐

I want to run a half marathon!!
Omg these sound delicious wow. My spring goal is to shave 2 minutes off my 5k time and keep toning my legs for summer!

My Spring Fitness Goal is to finish my first Marathon upright and smiling on May 29!
celebrate every mile ๐ it’s the best advice i’ve ever received.
My spring fitness goal is to hike more mountains with a bagged lunch of MEYER LEMON MACAROONS! ๐
I’ve been eating omelettes for dinner, too. Last night’s featured herbed goat cheese alongside a baked sweet potato. Yes, easy and delicious.
I’ve been sick with the cold/sinus thing that wouldn’t go away (like so many folks I know) all though the month of February, so my goal is to get moving again now that my energy is returning. January felt so great, so I was a little bummed that I lost many weeks of my usual routine. But now the fires are burning to get going, starting tonight with a gym trip and a pilates class.
Meyer lemon & lavender sound like the perfect way to celebrate early spring!
My Spring fitness goal is to finish (and enjoy) my first 5k! I’m hoping I get the racing bug! ๐
