Bake and Shake

Heyyyy 😀 How was your Indian Food Wednesday? Hope it was lovely 🙂 There’s some dal with my name on it.

So glad you enjoyed Cassey’s Focus On post! I loved reading it, too <3

Some more Focus On posts:

Bikram Yoga

PiYo

Zumba

Hoop Dancing

IntenSati

Today was supposed to be my long day at work, but it ended up being a shorty. This is a good thing since I have extra time to prepare for a new class I’m teaching tomorrow, and also because I had time to bake that banana bread I’ve been thinking about 😉

banana bread

It’s in the oven now and our house smells like a cinnamon foodgasm.

Vegan, gluten-free and I’ll have the recipe up in the am [fingers crossed it’s a success!] 😀

Some eats:

smoothie

Green-a-colada smoothie <—a classic fave

{See the extra box that appeared in the background? Our TV is here from Valdosta! Our friends shipped it for us, but we’re waiting to get into the new house to set it up}

Lots of organic fruit + half a gluten-free crunchy bar from the farmer’s market

Egg-rito on a teff tortilla, with hot sauce and spinach, almond milk cafe au lait

Protein pudding (sheep’s milk yogurt + Sun Warrior) and a bell pepper 🙂

snack

Tonight’s a TurboFire night for me. First I bake, then I shake 🙂

See ya in the morning <3

    I made banana bread tonight too…not vegan, but lower fat and whole grain! and, i also added a dash of ground cardamom with my cinnamon because I was feeling sassy…it was definitely a good move.

    How do you make the protein pudding? Is it just the yogurt and sun warrior added together and that’s it?

    I love that bag so much, it’s beautiful! I really want one, but you can’t order on Opensky from England can you? 🙁 If you can I will definitely get one! Your eats look delicious, and the suset incredible…breathtaking in fact! Look forward to hearing all about your banana bake! Sounds scrumptious 🙂 xyx

  25. Ash @ Good Taste Healthy Me on July 14, 2011 at 9:33 am

    I wanted to let you know that I did that ab workout the other day that you posted on Monday. Holy moly my abs were hurting the next day and my back from those sit-ups. It was a good hurt though. 😉
