Come here, goats
Sup bloggies 🙂 How’s your night been? I’m so stoked for the weekend!!! Anything fun planned?? I think the girls and I are going out for drinks and dinner tomorrow night and on Saturday, the commander’s wife is going to a local dairy farm– I really hope I can go with her. I love baby goats…
“Come here, little goats. I’ll trade you this bucket of food for some cheese”
Fresh goat cheese would make my life right about now 🙂
Today, I walked the fur children:
(Love Viessy’s bushy squirrel tail)
Devoured a mountain of sweet potato rounds (with paprika, sea salt and cayenne)
Took a little snooze (I’m a firm believer in siestas and take a small nap/rest almost every day),
had a smoothie:
trained clients <3
and made some dinner.
A giant salad beast:
Chard, arugula, mixed greens, spiralized beet, basil, raw goat cheddar (if it weren’t for goat cheese I could probably be vegan… but I can’t get enough), Organicville Balsamic dressing and garlic gold (fellow garlic lovahs, stay tuned for an awesome dragon-breath promo next week!)
And leftover eggplant curry:
I could eat Indian food every. single. day.
Just caught up on Private Practice via the DVR and am going to call it an early night- I’m meeting with my Lifestyle Challenge group and for once, I have no idea what I’m going to talk about. We’ve already gone over a LOT (fitness/weight loss myths, importance of ridding processed foods, nutrient-dense foods to focus on, eating and fitness plans) so I was thinking of having a “pick my brain sesh” and maybe showing them some new workout moves? We shall see!
Have a lovely night and I’ll see ya in the morning <3

I’m a big believer in siestas, too! Too bad I never get any time for one. Boooo.
LOVE siestas! I wish our schedule was like the one in spain with a nap every day. I could use it!
Maybe over the summer, I’ll invest in some overnight shipping and send you some fresh local goat cheese… its so freaking amazing!
ghhhh! that would be GLORIOUS. i’ll pay the shipping 🙂
I just got some local blueberry-ginger goat cheese from the farmer’s market last weekend. It’s absolutely heavenly!!!!
I’m having a nationality-identity crisis. I had eggplant curry today as well and planning to have Indian on both Saturday and Sunday, and I can shake my booty better than any latina girl in my zumba class. I swear I’m not Dutch and German.
I’m all for siestas, too. I just can’t figure out how to make them happen in my life. Snoozing at my desk is not really appreciated. 🙂
when i was a department store manager (70+ hours a week, no joke) i once fell asleep on a jeans shelf during 4am inventory. one of my associates woke me up! terrible
hehe the goaties love you!
Sweet potato rounds are perhaps my favorite thing ever.
And very cute picture with the goats ! 🙂
I’m with you on the Indian food — Mexican and Indian, what more do you need?! 😉
italian…mediterranean….. then i think i’m good 😉
No problem! Thanks for kicking my butt with that workout! Can’t wait to try some more!
I ran to Publix & the eggplant curry is simmering away in my crock pot as I type this! Cannot wait to try it 🙂
let me know how it turned out!
Ugh I wish I was capable of taking naps! I love the looks of that smoothie…and the glass straw. I love drinking with a straw, I just got a “to-go” cold beverage cup with a screw top and straw= best purchase of my life. Now I can take my monsters and fresh juices to go! Have a great night!
Your hair looks awesome in the first pic! & I agree, I’d be vegan if it wasn’t for cheese. And greek yogurt 😉
I’ll third that notion
If I want to find a group like that in my area, where should I start looking?
Thanks! Katherine
I love naps too, they have to be the perfect amount of time though – too long and I am a zombie the rest of the day!
that’s so true. i just need like 20-30 minutes and then i feel refreshed 🙂
I had goats at my preschool and have so many pictures like that! I do love their cheese though:)
have a great night!
you look gorgeous in that picture by the way!
Maybe it’s time to have some kids ; )
hahah don’t like the pilot see that. he wants kids, BIG TIME
I’m a firm believer that kids aren’t the ones that need afternoon naps, it’s ADULTS!!!!!!!!!! I could use a nap every.single.day!
that picture of you is SO GORGEOUS!!! i love it 🙂 and i also love baby goats. definitely a winning post 🙂
thank you!
I love seeing pictures of your salad beasts – it truly makes me want to eat more salad!
Sometimes you just need a nap! 🙂
I used to take a nap everyday too . . . until I had a baby:)
Hi Gina I had a question about the eggplant curry.. when it comes out of the crock pot is the eggplant mushy from cooking for hours? Random I know but just wondering!
yeah pretty mushy- but really good 🙂
I could eat Indian every single day too. So. freaking. good. 😀
xo

I am not a napper, but I totally understand that some people are and get re-energized! The salad looks wonderful 😀
I love baby goats too! We have sheep, and the new born lambs are so precious. Any baby animal melts my heart.
Oooh do I smell a garlicky giveaway coming soon???
Your Indian food is making me drool… I made some last night! A little late for Indian Food Thursday (due to me not reading directions on soaking the beans), but it was so freakin good and inspired by your Indian Food Wednesdays, so I wanted to give you a shout out!!
Aww, that picture of you and the goats is so cute?
Sounds like you had a great day yesterday! Have fun tonight with your girlfriends!
How about a talk to your group about “motivation” and the issue of falling off the wagon. This months Oxygen mag has 6 minute workout – great for the days when things happen and you have a “go to” plan – if you want more after 6 minutes you can do the circuit another time or two. IOW – what is your plan for when good intentions waver or good intentions go down the tubes.
I agree…I could eat Indian food every day too!!
We have family here this weekend….it’s my son’s 5th birthday today!
I’m all for naps! Too bad my professors and my boss aren’t… 😉
haha that’s why i like to be my own boss…and professor 🙂
