something to talk about
Friday Faves
TGIFF. (<– yes, there is an extra “F” there.) So excited for the weekend! When Livi wakes up, it will determine how the rest of the day will go. She’ll either wake up feeling much better (fingers crossed), or same/worse which means a visit to the ped is in order. I really hope the she…

Yoga teacher training
Lots of snuggles and downtime over here: Even though I hate when Livi is sick, the cuddles and downtime have been amazing. After a frantic week last week, some forced relaxation is much-appreciated, especially when I get to spend it relaxing with noodle. Usually she rarely sits still, but we’ve been camped on the couch…

Avocado Chicken Salad
Hi! How’s your day going so far? I have a healthy avocado chicken salad for you below! I’m so happy you liked the Fit Tuesday workout! We haven’t succeeded in making our Mardi Gras cookies (we went to the store for sprinkles and they had every color except purple, yellow and green!), but maybe we’ll…

Scooter girl + what I read in Feb
We have a scooter fanatic over here 🙂 I ordered the scooter because I noticed Liv was trying to move herself on the trike by pushing her feet against the ground. We got a lot of good use out of the trike, but I feel like she’s already outgrown it. We looked at the balance…

10 ways to Max Out your March
Hi guys! Hope you’re having a lovely morning! Can we just talk about the Oscars for a second? Did you watch?! Giuliana Rancic’s dress was definitely my favorite and I’m still shaking my head at “Adele Dazeem.” I always love the Oscars for the fashion alone, but my favorite moment this year was the tribute…

Blood Orange, Beet and Basil Salad
So I had a crazy flashback while making this blood orange salad. I was standing in the restaurant in 105degrees, in my little cheffer outfit, segmenting an entire bucket of blood oranges. It was my first time working with the citrus, so naturally I was astonished by the bright, bold color. I used the orange…

coffee and cats
Hi guys! How was your day? Sorry I’m still backwards over here. I anticipate that the rest of the week will be more sporadic blogging, resuming my normal(ish) schedule on Monday. Thanks for hanging in there with me 🙂 It’s been crazy with night weeks, finishing draft one of the book (wahoo!) and gearing up…

Succulents and Zumba
Hi friends <3 Hope you had a wonderful day. Some adventures of the afternoon: I replanted some succulents aka the one plants I can keep alive. I think it’s because they’re technically cacti and don’t require much watering. My goal is to one day have a succulent garden half as gorgeous as my nana’s.…

meals, fitness and that one thing
Hi friends! Hope you’re having a wonderful morning <3 It’s been a glorious weekend over here! Livi and I had an awesome Friday at the trampoline park with friends, (little best buddies sharing some Pirates Booty) Nordstrom Rack (got those shorts!) and lunch, and we had Thai for dinner. I got some photos…

My favorite workout bras
(sorry to the dudes out there) The birds are baaaaack. Every spring, we have turtle doves nesting a condo that the Pilot built. The condo was initially built out of empathetic frustration for the poor birds -they’d try to add nest supplies to the top of the pillar and they’d fall off, landing in a…

The prob with Pinterest workouts
Back to the grind over here! It’s always great to see these little pups again. I enjoyed a morning workout (strength + Workout 4! oof.) oh, and picked up some vegetables. It’s been a while. Liv and I spent the morning running a couple of errands. We slept in and missed storytime, so we grabbed snacks…
