Healthy shrimp fried rice
For real. After being in a little bit of a dinner food rut, I feel like I had my mojo going this week as far as trying new things goes. First the chicken caprese salads, then the tempeh taco lettuce wrap things, and tonight: homemade spring rolls. I used to experiment with dinners all the…
Read More →Fried
I was conjuring up a new recipe that I wanted to try for dinner last night, but when I got home and took a look at the Pilot, we knew. Eclectic it was 😉 I was absolutely fried from teaching yesterday. Cooking just wasn’t going to happen. 3 days of Zumba again this week (whoo too!)…

I have a little bit of fear in my heart. I feel like karma is going to get me back for all of the times I complained about shrieking babies on airplanes within the next couple of months. We’re not going to Italy- postponing until Liv is older- but I’ll most likely be taking her…
Read More →Meg: Products I Love
Products I Love Every girl has her own specialized arsenal of products she loves to use. I love trying out new things, especially lip colors! Even though I don’t pay too much attention to what’s in season clothing wise, I do like to change my make up to match the season or my mood. 1.…
Read More →Playlist panic
(a morning hummingbird!) Crazy things happen at work. Hilarious things are said in the locker room -my friend Michele said the highlight of her day is cracking me up, which happens often- schedules change (we have a set schedule but could end up teaching anything at a second’s notice. I’ve gone in before and found…
Read More →Focus On: Chalean Extreme
Hey guys, This Focus Post is pretty exciting to me because it’s a workout that I’ve been wanting to try for quite a while. I couldn’t find it in myself to purchase a set of weights -it seems unnecessary when you move often and have a gym membership. It may be something I could try…

Making Waves
I’m a big fan of hair with staying power. If I wear my hair straight and put it into a high ponytail, it’s toast until I wash it again (thanks to the gnarly crease on the middle of my head), so I have many strategies on how to wear my hair at the gym so it…

Bird creeper
It definitely is a little funny to crack the blinds open, shove my camera lens in between the slats and snap multiple pictures. I have to get pics of the baby birds in the condo the Pilot built! Bird creeper… Aren’t they so cute?! The Pilot is also brainstorming some kind of blanket net for…

Tempeh Taco Lettuce Wraps
Doing the same thing all the time can get a little boring, even if it’s something you like. Take tempeh, for instance. Tempeh-as-bacon is my usual favorite way to enjoy it, but I was looking for a new way to prepare it. The result? Tempeh tacos! Not just any tacos–lettuce wrap tacos! Does that make…
Read More →20 things to do with a stability ball
This stability ball and I have been through a lot. We were together during my senior year in college, when I lived in an apartment with only Bella (my mom said it’s good to live alone before getting married because “you should know how to date yourself.” I’d always had roomies before, but ended…

Balsamic Chicken Caprese Salad
It was a nice, lazy day, filled a few adventures. Breakfast: (Bob’s Red Mill hot cereal with frozen organic berries, Sun Warrior, coconut milk and almond butter + coffee) a gym trip to test out Summer Shape Up (starts 2 weeks from today!) (flowers at work- definitely not my flowers) Family trip to Jamba Juice…
