1/13: Meals and fitness for the week
I feel halfway motivated to plan and prep for this week. The cloudy and cold make me want to curl up with a blanket and pray for food to magically appear, but at the same time, memories of last week’s killer Paleo bread make me realize it’s worth it to have some snacks and food…

Meg: Do or Don’t: Self Tanning
I will openly admit that as a senior in high school I regularly tanned in a tanning bed. Thinking back on it, the month or so I spent fake-baking would never be worth some of the consequences we know result from those harmful UV rays. As a fair skinned and freckled girl, I should have…

Random thanks
Hi friends, hope you’re enjoying the weekend so far. Ours has been pretty glorious. We went out for Mexican last night (enchiladas, rice and beans, oh myyyy) and then watched Pitch Perfect. If you haven’t seen it: HILarious. (Source) even though I kept waiting for Rebel Wilson to talk about a Mexican drinking worm tattoo…

Functional, stylish workout gear from Old Navy
When you look at the workout pants/shorts area of my closet, you’ll see a common theme: black stretchy. I wear lots and lots of black stretchy pants. For Zumba, I’ll clown it up with as many neon color combos and patterns as I can find (if it has the Zumba logo on it, it matches,…

Smoked Salmon Quinoa Hand Rolls
This is a sad story about some rice (but a happy story about some homemade sushi rolls). That would be the leftover rice from Pei Wei, which ended up having a slumber party in my trunk. It’s easier to forget about leftovers in the car nowadays. For a split second, I debated eating it until…

Giving birth to Liv was the most amazing and happiest thing I’ve ever done. Yeah, there was some pain involved (and crazy animal sounds) but I’d do it again at this very moment to have her here. You could take all the hard parts, bottle them up, ask me to drink it, and I’d do…

Books, babies and bows.
Some of Livi’s favorite things 🙂 It was an amazing day to celebrate an amazing little girl. Lots of “Happy Birthday” singing in the morning, breakfast together and then after her first nap, we headed to the zoo. The weather was gorgeous and nana joined us for our adventure. We had a blast walking around-…

Blueberry Oat Bar Recipe
This Blueberry Oat Bar Recipe is for older babies and toddlers. It’s free of refined sugar, gluten and dairy. When I first started to make meals for myself and the Pilot (I had no idea how to cook, and there were some legendary snafus), I finally got an idea of what it felt like to…
