Like riding a [spin] bike

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…

It’s been a great month so far 😉 Walking around Casas Adobes a stop at Whole Foods for almond butter, a juice and other necessities making the Pilot’s favorite dinner: and a new circuit workout. But first, has anyone seen one of these before? A Rumble Roller! When I first saw it at the gym,…

Happy humpday and leap year! I feel like we should make a wish on leap year- it just seems like a lucky day 😉 Some ordinary lucky oats: a fancy salad that I whipped up: (Oh Joe the Trader, I appreciate you so much) and a new-to-me lunch wrap combo. I was in the mood…

So many fun adventures today! A world beat class (which was amaaaaaazzing) hike at Sabino Canyon and dinner with an intimate party of 17. I was SO excited to take world beat this morning. As I mentioned before, there’s no recorded music, only live drummers, and we dance to international rhythms including African, Latin and…

1. The meal of my childhood. On Sundays after church, everyone would go over to my nana’s house for homemade tortillas, chorizo, tamales, beans and eggs. It’s something my mom would often make on the weekends, too.. I knew it would be a good day when I woke up to the smell of chorizo. Now,…

Slow cooker chicken coconut curry
Last time I made Thai food, I almost burned our faces off with the spiciness factor. This is coming from a girl who eats jalapenos straight-up. It was borderline too much for me too handle, and way too spicy for the Pilot, who likes spicy foods, but not the same way I do. This time,…

Zumba, how did I miss thee? Let me count the ways: 1. The loud music made my heart sing 2. It felt good to bellydance sans a giant belly 3. Sometimes a girl’s gotta shake her booty to a wicked reggaeton and the list goes on. My friend Melissa taught class, and even though I’m…

It’s been wayyyyy too long since we’ve had ‘chokes in the house: (Each little leaf dipped into Goddess dressing.. amazing) Last night, I grabbed some groceries (finally!), we had a couple of drinks: and the Pilot cooked up an amazing feast. The artichokes above Alexia sweet potato chipotle fries and perfect turkey burgers. I have…

Hi from the Pilot’s office 🙂 He had some paperwork to do tonight, so I walked around the gym track with the Kindle for a while and am hanging out until he’s done working. Today was a pretty good day- far more productive than yesterday!- filled with errands and many of the things that have…

It was one of those days when I wanted to work out, but the thought of getting to the gym was the only thing holding me back. You know, like getting dressed in normal-people clothes and driving there in the cold. I also hate the thought of leaving right when the Pilot gets home for…
