Cauliflower Bread Grilled Cheese – A Low Carb, Extra Veggie Take On a Classic
I’m eager to share this awesome take on the traditional grilled cheese sandwich: Cauliflower bread grilled cheese! I know, right? But first, ugh. This is what happens when I say I like Daylight Savings: -we all have an impossible time waking up and getting out the door this morning -I forget Liv’s gymnastics outfit at home…

working on my mussels
Lots of seafood ahead… But first, these bunnies! I picked them up at Home Goods as an effort to add some Easter-ish decor and they look just like the foil-covered chocolate bunnies. Sadly, there is no chocolate inside, but they’re pretty cute. 🙂 How was your weekend? Hope you had a great one! On Friday,…

3/8: Meals and fitness
Acai bowls. Bicep curl spoon to mouth. The end. It definitely feels like spring is here! It was an awesome day with a trip to the beach, and snacks at Tiki Port. Summer, I CAN TASTE YOU. I think I may be the only weirdo who likes Daylight Savings. As an Arizona native, I’m still pretty…

Friday Faves
Hi friends! HAPPY FRIDAY! What are you up to this weekend? We have some fun events ahead of us: a date night, friends’ housewarming party, and a potential 5k. I say “potential” because the time springs forward this weekend, and getting out of the house early has never been my strongest suit, so we shall…

Triple Threat Tabata Workout
(and some fun news!) Hi friends! How’s the morning going? I LOVED reading your comments on the “Is Zumba dead?” post and the things that almost screwed up my fitness life. I’m so excited to try out some new dance cardio classes, like Werq, and I’ve been meaning to give Jazzercise a whirl forever. Also,…

Lactation cookies for new mamas
When a friend or family member has a newborn baby, I’m always excited to stop by and take them a meal or some snacks and goodies. Some of my favorite baby meals are here, and here are two items that usually make an appearance: Mother’s Milk tea and lactation cookies. When Liv was first born,…

5 things that almost screwed up my fitness life
(the title of this post is a little dramatic, but so am I, so there ya go. haha) Today, I thought it would be fun to talk about things that stood in my way when I was first getting started on a healthy lifestyle. There was a lot of information out there, and I was intimated,…

Is Zumba dead?
Hi friends! How’s your evening going? Tuesday nights are a little treat because I don’t teach; it’s just a fun evening to hang out with the fam. We went to take Bell and Caro to the dog park, but we couldn’t find Bella’s harness ANYWHERE. After searching high and low, the Pilot and Liv set…

Kettlebell Circuit Workout
Hi friends! How’s the day going? Hope your morning has been lovely so far. <3 I’m a little later posting today -did get some Livi-isms up on the Family page- because I had an appointment and hit up the gym for an easy run. Now it’s time for a workout post–a kettlebell circuit workout! But…

Livi-isms
“I love you more than lollipops and marshmallows.” Me: “You can be anything you want to be when you grow up.” Liv: “I want to be a doctor. No, a robot.” “Let’s go shoot some ladders!” (= play Chutes and Ladders. I think she thinks chute is “shoot,” because play basketball fairly…

Luscious grain-free lemon cake
Hiiii. How’s your Monday going? We’ve had a lovely morning. Still tons of rain, a sweaty BODYPUMP class, and Livi’s gymnastics class, which is one of my favorite things ever. So, there are a few customs I wish the US would adopt. #1: the siesta. WHY CAN’T WE HAVE A NATIONAL SIESTA? My family is…
