For today’s giveaway, I’ve been cooking.. or uncooking up a little something. Our dehydrator is full of macaroons, and I’d love to give them to one of you, along with some other fun holiday treats/goodies.
I’ll also be ordering a copy of “HIIT IT!” (which has ALL of my macaroon recipes inside!) for the winner, which is a favorite thing because a lot of love went into making it. I poured my heart, soul, and fitness knowledge into the pages, and am so excited to share it with you all.
Some of the things you’ll find in “HIIT It!”:
-A thorough HIIT background: how it works, and how to use it in your own routine
-FULL weekly fitness plans depending on how many days you can train each week
-Workouts that can be completed in 30 minutes or less with body weight and dumbbells alone
-My HIIT style of eating, macro counting, and delicious recipes that can be made in advance to be enjoyed throughout the week
-All of my macaroon recipes 🙂
In addition to the macaroons and book, I’ll also be including some fun holiday goodies, like teas, chocolate, peppermint bark, whatever I see that looks fun. 😉

My family is Swiss, so we always celebrate on Christmas Eve and with our extended family. We light candles on the tree (it’s not as much of a fire hazard as it sounds…) and sing carols in German and then all open presents together. I’ve always loved how special our family Christmas traditions are!
My favorite holiday tradition is simple, just getting the family together with charlie brown christmas in the background. We also watch hilarious home videos from when we were kids!

My favorite Christmas tradition is reading the book – it’s this book about Santa Claus that my mom got when she was 3 and it has her colorings in it. We read it over 15 nights STARTING TOMORROW aka the best day of the year… It’s kind of like having her back!
Prior to having kids, I used to love going to Midnight Mass. There was always something so special about being in church in the middle of the night with traditional hymns being played.
