Fast food

Night weeks, I’m not a fan. Source I’ve never loved night weeks because I miss having the Pilot around- it just feels lonely over here. Liv and I have had fun hanging out at the house together or meeting up with friends, but we haven’t seen much of the man of the house for the…

Schweaty March Workout

Like many people, I tend to go through workout phases- find something new, love it, keep it up for a while, and then go back to the old standards. BodyPump comes to mind 😉 With all of the things I’ve tried, there have been 3 workout constants in my life: Zumba, yoga and weight lifting/gym…

Protein fruit yogurt

Hey guys! Happy Friday 🙂 Anything fun planned for the weekend? We have a party to go to on Saturday, along with a return to tapping. <— So random, but exciting. My boss is an incredible instructor and is teaching some fitness and dance classes at a local studio. When I saw her the other…

Focus On: YouTube Fitness

Even though I usually have some kind of gym membership, I really like working out at home. It’s convenient, NBD if nothing in your outfit matches or if you have yet to brush your teeth that morning, and it’s pressure-free if you’re trying something new or different. My Carmen Electra striptease DVD comes to mind……

Like riding a [spin] bike

Ways to make it a marvelous March

Favorite things about March: -4th Avenue Street Fair -Renaissance Festival (last time I went, my friend Mikaela and I said “cheers” and clanked our ridiculously large turkey legs together before watching the jousting competition) Source -Spring in Tucson: wine on the balcony, cool walks at night, bringing back outdoor workouts, dog park Sundays with Bell,…

You want fries with that shake?

Source Started the day off shaking at World Beat. Live drummers, yelling, international dance styles…Love. First, I had some toast and eggs with salsa and took a Pure Bar with me for afterwards. The interesting thing about World Beat is that it isn’t pre-choreographed, like Zumba or Dance Trance. Each song is a particular rhythm…

Gym Ditcher

Last night I happily ditched the gym and went on a date 😉 (Malbec! Yum.) During the week, when the Pilot comes home, we’ll hang out and have dinner, put Livi to bed, and I’ll hit up the gym for a little while. When my mom called on her way home from work to see…

Making and breaking habits

It was a quiche kinda night over here. It took me about 18 years of life to learn that quiche starts with a “q.” 😉 The Pilot came home from work, and I wanted to make something quick and easy so we could hang out a little bit before being sucked into our respective laptops.…

Can’t trust her

Oh hello, Monday. Definitely back into the swing of life over here! After having a house hustling and bustling all weekend, back to just the girls: myself, Bell and Liv. I caught Bella eating a piece of ice cream sandwich in the backyard this morning.. this worries me for two reasons: 1) we haven’t had…

New Ballz and Snack Links

It’s about time I expanded my amazeball horizons. I’ve been brainstorming snack ideas that I can have in the fridge, grab and eat, and couldn’t believe how long it had been since I had an amazeball. They’re a great dose of healthy fat and protein- 2 usually does the trick for me. Instead of making…

Banana Split Protein Shake

This is the reason why I never make oats in the microwave: OATSPLOSION! No matter what I do, how long I cook it for, how much water I add… it always ends up being time to clean the microwave. I was willing to make the sacrifice and try out these new-to-me oats: the half that…
