DIY: refreshing rose facial spray

There are so many beautiful and extremely different personalities in our work locker room. We have the dancers, the spinners, the hardcore ass-kickers (that’s their official title), the yogis and more. Some flow from one type to the next–like the same airy fairy yoga instructor can kill you in bootcamp class. It’s amazing. I learn…

love to Boston + the workout sandwich

Hi friends. My heart is still really heavy today after yesterday’s tragic events in Boston. This post was originally supposed to publish around 3pm yesterday, but at the time felt so silly and inappropriate to post, I put it queue for this morning and enjoyed the evening with my family. Even though we had a…

Homemade Kombucha

Even though I made kombucha at 105degrees, it’s always freaked me out to make it at home. I pictured our house being overrun by scoby mushrooms, engulfed in a vinegar aroma. I also thought the Pilot thought it would be the final ticket to the “my wife is a little ‘out there’” town. But, guess…

4/14: April Week 3 Workout Plan

Is April really halfway over? I can’t believe that next month Kyle and Meg are getting married. The time flew by and I can’t wait to celebrate two people I love so much- it’s going to be a blast. Liv and I have been practicing her dance moves (get this: she can shake her shoulders),…

4/12: Friday Faves

-The way Caroline sleeps in the middle splits. She’s quite an accomplished canine yogini. -Homemade bubbles. Easiest thing ever- vegetable glycerin, dish soap + water. The bubble queen is a huge fan, and it’s nice to be able to quickly make more bubble mix at home sans chemicals. [Side note: I have an awesome little…

More Peas, Thank You

I’m a bit of a cookbook hoarder. My collection is kind of ridiculous, (one of the 3 designated cookbook spots in the house) and every time I’m in a bookstore, I have to convince myself to walk away from yet another cookbook. That is, unless I know the author’s lovely face. That’s always a reason…

why we’re still going to wait

After a while of carefully guarding my choices of posts and words over here, I’ve started to become more adventurous again. It’s not because I somehow magically stopped caring about what people think, but because I feel like if something is tugging on my heart for that long and is that powerful, it’s worth putting…

The quiet workout

Maybe I’m just drawn to the types of workouts that are more intense on the volume, but working out seems to be a pretty loud thing. Between the Zumba screaming, loud sighing/breathing in yoga and plyometric jumps, when I’m working out, you know. This is one of the huge reasons I haven’t been working out…

Gina: Quitting the blowdrier

In addition to the usual fitness questions I receive for the blog, I also get a lot of hair questions and dating/relationship questions. ย I can’t really help much with the dating stuff -I’ve been out of the game for.. 8 years? haha- but for the hair stuff I have a better idea of what to…

Mango-mojito sorbet

A bit of mint in this mango sorbet gives a flavor nod to my favorite mojitos. This mango mojito sorbet is the perfect refreshing treat for hot summer nights!  It was funny to read a post about this on one of my favorite blogs, as it’s something that’s been on my mind lately. For a…
