2/8: Friday Faves
-Yoga. I always love yoga, but it’s even more delicious after a bit of a hiatus. Hot power yoga is my absolute favorite, but I *thought* all of the classes here were 90 minutes and far away. Not the case at all! Kyle and Meg introduced me to a studio downtown, $4 seriously hot yoga,…

Learning at home + activity corner
Lately, I’ve been trying to think of new activities Liv and I can do at home. We do a lot, but I feel like it’s a lot of the same things- puzzles, books, toys, songs and adventures out to play dates, baby gym and story time. We’re also big fans of the zoo: While we…

Indian Food Wednesday!
Chicken tikka masala, it’s been way too long. Tuesday night, while setting out the ingredients for Wednesday’s slow cooker destiny, I thought to myself, “This could totally become a regular thing again!” And then I started making everything and very quickly changed my mind. Anyone else get a little intimidated to see more than 15…

Meg: Love yourself
Whew. I fell victim to a nasty virus at end of January and I am JUST now feeling normal again. Since I’m training for my first half-marathon, I pushed myself harder than I should have even during my illness (hence why it took me so long to get well!). Since I have done an C+…

Winter Shape Up 2013: Week 2 Plank Ab burner
The first time I heard of plank workouts, I thought they might be a waste of time. Planks over 10 seconds allow you to “cheat,” so you’re not only using your core- your shoulders, legs, biceps, booty, everything starts to kick in when the abs quit. Then I realized that instead of thinking of it…

Photo roulette
You never know what you’re going to get. It’s always kind of fun to put in the SD card and see the forgotten photos; sometimes they’ll sit on there for a few days without editing, and then I’ll see a surprise or two. Like this one: Apparently Caro wanted to improve her dental hygiene by…

I gotta [spring] fever
Early February is when it tends to hit me. I love living in Tucson, but man is the weather bipolar. A few weeks ago we were in the 20s and now we’re in the high 70s. Turtle doves are already scoping out our prime bird condo real estate, it’s warm with the slightest cool breeze,…

Baby Banana Quinoa Muffins
The second Liv sees a banana, she’ll immediately start saying “anana? Anana? Nana? NANA?” until she gets a bite 🙂 Livi pretty much loves anything banana, which is convenient since it’s such a healthy, portable snack. Bella likes banana, too, which is also convenient when Liv decides to toss her discarded banana bites on the floor.…

2/3: Pics (and words) from the day
Not all from today- how ’bout the past 24 hours? Last night we took a little road trip to Phoenix to see Brian Regan. I got the Pilot tickets as a Christmas gift and thought that it would be a fun date for the two of us. It also saved me because I never know…
