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…

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…

1/6: Meals and Fitness for the week
Hi friends 🙂 Sorry for the blog silence yesterday! The only thing I had to write about was my legendary headache. I even took a few Tylenol, which is a testament to how bad it was.. usually I’ll just deal with it. When I got home for the day, some snuggles and giggles made it…

Tips for goals + random resolutions
I’m usually right there in the middle of the New Years hoopla of big changes. While I don’t like the pressure of an ambiguous date -if you want to make a change, why not just do it then, in the moment?- I can definitely agree with the fresh, crispy feeling of a new year, chance…

Detoxifying eats
Note about the following post: if you are suffering or recovering from an eating disorder and think reading about a sugar detox would be uncomfortable to you, I would consider skipping this particular post. What we read can affect our bodies and minds – I’m sending all of my love and healing wishes to you.…

In the New Year…
2012 was an amazing, amazing year. It definitely went by a little more quickly than I would have liked, but was a life-changer. Livi was born in the very beginning of the year (I’m still in shock that her birthday is next week!) and we’ve also added a fur sister for Bella. Our house and…

Top posts according to traffic:…

12/30: Meals and Fitness for the Week
Is anyone else excited to get back in the swing of things this week? I’ve been on sugar overload since Halloween and am ready to get more fruits and veggies in my life. It’s not to say sugar won’t sneak its way in there (it will), but there were quite a few days over the…

Out with a bang + party apps, cocktails
Can you believe that Monday is New Years eve?! What do you have planned? I think we’re going to spend the day relaxing and then head to a family/friend party later that night. Since little miss will be a pumpkin by about 8pm or so (even though she stayed awake until 9 on Christmas Eve),…
