Summer Workout Playlist
I wrote this post earlier but somehow missed the critical “press publish” step. Derp. ๐ Since I’m off work on Mondays, it always feels like a nice relaxing day, but this week is even more fun because the Pilot took some leave. He has 90-something days, and while he obviously can’t use them all -how…

After an awesome breakfast, (pancakes, berries and eggs) We grabbed our swim stuff and left for a morning adventure – it was a perfect day for a swim! In standard Gina fashion, I messed up the times at our gym to use the pool. I thought the pool class started at 10:30, but turns out…

Sometimes it just feels good to get outside. More night flights for the Pilot, and Liv was hit with a bug plus the teething monster. One morning, after spending 4 hours snuggling and trying to comfort the inconsolable, the Pilot woke up, came downstairs, and I asked him if he’d watch Livi while I took…

Considering how bad I felt after my last half, my legs are feeling pretty good(ish) today. We’ll talk tomorrow, though: the official test of post-race soreness. Thank you so much for all of your awesome comments on the race. It feels good to know that I put myself out there, and while I didn’t run…

Some pics from our Friday: Met with some friends for lunch at AJs. This salad was INCREDIBLE- greens, goat cheese, balsamic, dried cranberries, blackberries and candied almonds ย Paused during playtime for a 30 second snuggle ๐ย and since Liv took two 2-hour naps (!!!), I did a lot around the house, made the October workout…

It was a crazy, long day, even longer with a travel snafu + 3 hours of driving on top of flying all day. But, I made it! ๐ After an awesome dinner with the ZOOMA girls (thanks for letting me crash the party!) FaceTime with my loves, getting my clothes set out ย and my…

Add natural sweetness and a boost of nutrients to your dessert when you make these sweet potato brownies. Hey! How’s your day going so far? Lots of sweet potatoes in our house lately. For Livi, for Bell and for us. 100% correct: sweet potato brownies. I’ve seen a lot of recipes for vegetables in desserts…

Good morning! Happy new week to ya ๐ I think we all woke up with a case of the “smushy face” over here. Sometimes when Bella wakes up, half of her face is smushed up and we’ll call her smushy face. I slept horribly last night. I have no idea if it was the wine…

Some random things about work lately: -When you work in the weight room, you have to empty out the towel bins. Theyโre sleek silver mesh trash can type things, and you carry it into one of the spa laundry rooms to empty the bin for housekeeping. You walk back to the weight room with said…

= National day for tamales with eggs and beans for breakfast Itโs a good combo in the morning if youโre, um, moving a little slowly after the previous nightโs festivities. Things didnโt get too crazy over here โI just had a couple sips of margarita- but we had a blast hanging out at our friend…

It was about time to go from this: (what I call my โwitch hairโ โ too long and thick to manage) to this. I lost about 5 lbs in hair this morning. As much as I love the convenience of the messy bun, Iโm so excited to be able to wear my hair down…

Iโve mad a lot of gnarly-looking smoothies in my day. This one wins ๐ Grey! Tastyโฆ.. To make a grey smoothie: combo of banana, almond milk, spinach, berries, Sun Warrior, hemp seeds, almond butter and cinnamon. Despite its funky appearance, it was quick dose of nutrients and tasted fantastic. This morningโs bfast was a little…
