Apple Pie Smoothie
Even though it’s close to 100 degrees, I can still feel a hint of fall in the air. Maybe it’s just wishful thinking, but I’m gonna roll with it 😉 That’s where this apple pie smoothie comes in–it’s a great way to enjoy fall flavors even when the weather hasn’t gotten on board with what…

It’s finally here!
Hiiii! How’s your Monday going? Hope you’re enjoying the day so far! This morning’s planned run turned into a nice walk instead. My legs are still sore from Saturday! It’s the kind of sore that didn’t seem like it would be going away when I started running, so I just kept it slow and enjoyed…

Eggplant Pizzas
Hi friends! Happy Monday to ya. Hope you had a wonderful weekend. After Saturday’s long run, I spent the day at work, crashed out embarrassingly early, and we spent all of Sunday just hanging out. Picking apples and pears was a blast, we grilled for dinner, ate some of the fudge from the apple orchard…

NEW hotel room circuit
Whenever I get back from vacation, I’m always kind of scared to resume my full teaching schedule again. Even after just a week off, I can feel the difference and am usually sluggish, especially during Zumba. This week: not the case at all. Maybe 9 days of carb loading in Italy will do that for…

Grain-Free Vegan Thumbprint Cookies
For yesterday’s dinner, I had an awesome picnic in mind, but the rain had another idea. So hot bar inside it was. Noodle has the hot bar routine down pat. We walk around and pick our eats, grab a drink (either water or a fresh juice) and then she looks up at me and says,…

No shortcuts
Lately: We’ve been drinking lots of fresh juices. We went to the zoo -it had rained and was gloriously cool outside! (My heart melts to see Livi having a blast with her cousins) (That peacock was AFTER ME) I enjoyed an amazing yoga class with friends (not a single Warrior 2, which was gloriously refreshing)…

Summer Workout Playlist
I wrote this post earlier but somehow missed the critical “press publish” step. Derp. 😉 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…

7/26: Friday Faves
Hi friends 🙂 Happy Friday! I had a What I Ate Thursday post in progress for you, but taught 4 classes yesterday and it became impossible to remember to take photos of all my bites. In fun news, I got to team-teach a super sweaty Zumba class with Sasha at BreakOut Studios here in Tucson.…

-First things first: it’s nana’s birthday! We love you and are all so lucky to have you, nana. (Or in Liv’s case, “NANI!”) Happy, happy birthday! <3 (I can’t believe how itty bitty Liv is here) -Pho to-go! Since our fridge didn’t have anything of dinner quality when we got back -just left some basic…

Becoming a morning person
Why hello there, cup o’green: Remember when I mentioned those blended salads I used to have alllll the time? Well, I had to make one after that! I used to do this in the Valdosta days, and figured that it would be a fun way to get in some extra veggies. In the blender, I…

7/5: Friday faves
-Butter nail polish It goes on like, well…. butter. And, unlike my beloved Essie polish, you don’t need 14 coats for the color to look vibrant. 2 coats and BOOM. I also love that the BX on base carries Butter nail polish 🙂 -Target sandals Meg told me about these sandals when I was looking…
