snack
Now or never
It was a lovely Thursday over here. Lots of Bella-snuggling, errand-running and getting things ready for the busy weekend ahead. After I tested out the Schweaty November Workout –should be up tomorrow am!- I snacked on many Popchips (I used to not like the texture of them, but they’ve grown on me. kettle chips are…

I got to see the sunrise this morning. While I’m not a morning person in the least –I usually wake up around 6:45 or 7, but don’t turn into a human until at least 8- it was surprising to discover that I actually liked waking up so early today. I’m not going to make…

Halloween ended up being a fun whirlwind over here: Teaching Zumba doc appt back to the casa to leave out candy for trick-or-treaters dinner with madre and nana [Twist my arm, eh?] followed by some shopping… A lovely day indeed 🙂 Remember last week when I said night weeks are over? Apparently it was…

Last night was pumpkin carving at our house, fabulous company and quite possibly the most random and festive snacks. Grilled corn on the cob, from the farmer’s market and prepared by the Grillmaster himself hot apple cider (also from the farmer’s market, spiced up with cinnamon and nutmeg) and pie. Told you it was random…

Such a glorious fall day <3 The weather for the farmer’s market was perfection so the Pilot, Bell and I walked around to check out all of the goods- it’s been a while since we hit up our favorite Sunday farmer’s market. They had the usual fare: salsas, preserves, tea, ethnic foods, local honey, organic…

We found our Halloween costumes! The Pilot is a video game nerd and I am a sleepy blogger. I’m saving Bella’s costume until absolutely necessary –to take blog pictures on Monday- because she’ll hate me the entire time it’s on… She will not tolerate antennae for longer than 5 minutes. I think we both knew…

I cheated on my high school last night. My bro, the Pilot and I met up with the fam (cousins, aunts, uncles, parents, nana) to watch my little bro’s football game. He plays varsity (and is only a freshman- impressive stuff!), for my alma mater’s rival school. So there were Kyle and I, sporting the…

Heyyyy 😀 How’s your day treating you? Hope it’s been lovely so far <3 Something very surprising happened after breakfast this morning… Cereal satisfied for longer than it takes to refill a bowl.. again.. and again. It was my second time trying these strawberry flakes I picked up the other day: [This morning was my…

Look who I caught canoodling on the couch when I got home from work… So I did what anyone would do: cut in and stole her. Heh heh. She looks really happy about it 😉 Today was a doozy, but a good day. Breakfast and snack were frantically eaten in between classes (egg-rito, and later…

I think I missed the boat on this one, but I still would like one of the obscenely large pumpkins that I keep seeing… [Shoe is in the photo for size reference] Did anyone out there pick up a giant pumpkin?? Maybe I’ll wait for next year, or maybe I’ll just go for it… After…

One of the perks about making goodies for other people? Making sure they taste ok 😉 [Side note: roon with almond butter may be the most insane combo ever] Sending roons for the giveaway winner + a batch to an unsuspecting reader tomorrow! Today at work was my lucky day. I got to assist 3…

Heyyyy <3 How was your Monday? Hope you had a wonderful day! After catching up on blogs, news (sending lots of love to Giuliana Rancic, whom I’ve always admired), and waking the Pilot up (he didn’t have to go in super early this morning), I made breakfast using two new-to-me ingredients. DARK CHOCOLATE almond milk…
