Fiyah Booty
Hey hey hey How’s your day been?? Mine has been crazy so far- hence the late blogging. Usually at work I can skip away to blog for a while, but today we’ve been SLAMMED!
We started off the morning with a lovely ballet booty barre class at BodyWorks studio.
Holy plies and leg lifts. My bum was on fiyah and I liked it I didn’t even take the whole class since I was snapping photos for the website, but the portion I did catch was intense.
Some recent eats:
Girl’s night dinner at Blue Willow
(PS. grilled sweet potatoes have changed my life forever)
Chocolate-covered strawberry smoothie
Black bean spaghetti
(covered in TJs marinara and nutritional yeast)
+ veg
I meandered over to the farmer’s market to see what goodies I *needed*
The goods
A cucumber, zucchini, baby butternut, orange, beautiful tomato and mini pecan pie for my pecan-pie obsessed roomie
I’m back to work, taking a juicy, restorative yoga class, meeting the girls at a resort for dinner, and GET TO SEE VIES TONIGHT!!!
Enjoy your Saturday, friends <3
xoxo
Gina
Thank goodness it warmed up enough for them to have the market today!!
T.
Black bean spaghetti?! Never heard of that before, but it sounds delish!
Aww that photo of you and Vies is adorable! 😀 Enjoy being reunited again!!
Awww vies will be so excited to see you!
I know this is random but what’s a good make-at-home salad dressing that is healthy? & obvs. delicious too?!
i love balsamic- 1/4 C balsamic, 1/3-1/2 c olive oil, 1 t dijon mustard, 1 minced garlic clove, oregano, sea salt, pepper, pinch of stevia
Awww yay! 🙂 I’m so glad you get to see Vies tonight. You’ll both be so happy. And I’ve been wanting to get that blue Lulu jacket like crazy! I have it in plain black, but I really liked all the colors in that one. I miiiight have to make a trip to the website. 😉
oh my gosh black bean spaghetti is AWESOME!!! Vies is SO SO CUTE!
aww Vies looks like a little fox(y mama)!
I have seen black bean spaghetti on some blogs but can’t find it anywhere, where can I find it?! Whole foods?
Yes, I second this! Where can it be found/how can it be made?
I’m doing a give-away with some this week!
FYI guys- I couldn’t find it for awhile either but it IS at Whole Foods, at least at mine it is a little tricky to find because instead of putting it with the other spaghetti it is in the Asian section.
i’ll post a pic of the package for everyone tomorrow and yes it’s at whole foods 🙂
Have fun with Viesa!!
I put my new Stride jacket on as soon as I got home & showered. I LOVE IT!! 🙂 Yum – grilled sweet potatoes can come rock my world. And Ms. Emily was brutal while being adorable this morning, loved the Yes? and when her accent would come out. Happy I got my booty out of bed.
love love your new jacket 🙂 so glad you made it this morning! emily was amazing- i can’t wait to take another one of her classes
SO happy you get to see viesy! Makes my heart smile 🙂
xoxo

Aww how exciting that you get to see the pup tonight! I’ve never heard of black bean spaghetti before. It looks interesting!
Black bean spaghetti? Wow that sounds fun….how was it? I like ballet style classes because I was a ballet dancer for 17 years! 🙂
Pecan pie is ALWAYS needed:) That sounds like such a fun class! I hope you have a good time with Vies, girl:)
That pecan pie looks amazing!
Hope you enjoy seeing Vies tonight – yay!!
Ahhh i’ve been dying to try a pure-barre/ballet workout type of class!! They haven’t really hit Boston yet sooo we shall see 🙂 Viesa looks soooo fluffy and comfy in that picture, awwww so fun you get to play today!! xoxox
Never heard of black bean spaghetti before. I’m intrigued!
Ah, so excited for you that you get to see Viesa! Where ever did you find black bean spaghetti? Sounds delish!
Grilled sweet potatoes? Sign me up!

Please do share where you get that fabulous black bean spaghetti– I want to know the secrets! 🙂
In total agreement!

Yay for getting to see Viesa! 🙂
Like everyone else, I’m totally curious where the black bean spaghetti came from! So intriguing! Have a lovely Saturday.
Black bean spaghetti? Intrigued!
Oh I’m SO excited to hear you’re hanging out with Viesa tonight!!!!!!!!! 😀
Take pictures!!!! And enjoy the puppy cuddles. ‘Cause let’s face it, puppy cuddles are the best!
I know you’ll be happy to see Vies; she must be on winter break from “college!” I’m jealous if you’re eating @ canyon ranch. Not fair.
Have fun seeing View-she’s going to be so excited to see you!!!!
*Vies!
The ballet booty barre class looks fun! Great eats, I need to try black bean spaghetti.
I’m glad you get to see Viesa today! I’m sure she misses you like crazy.
hurray for getting to see Viesa tonight! i bet she’s going to love the snuggles she gets 🙂
Hey, Gina. Love your blog! Saw these pretty little strawberries and wondered what you could concoct without the sugar. They look truly divine!
Oh! So happy you get to see Viesa tonight!

those look delicious!!
That picture of you and Viesa is too cute! She must miss you a ton!
Grilled sweet potatoes sound just about right!! And hooray for getting to see your sweet Vies! I am nursing an injured pup today… my little guy slipped on some ice and exacerbated an old back injury last night! 🙁
The last pic is so precious! Have fun seeing her tonight!
And being slammed at work…that’s a good thing b/c it makes the time go by faster, until you have that “omg I need to blog and get my post up” feeling…or maybe i am the only one who gets that feeling 🙂
Grilled sweet taters? Yes please!
🙂
Awwwh! Vies looks adorabs in that pic! Like a cross between a dog, fox, and a cat! Have fun!
Have fun with your pup! 🙂
That nutritional yeast looks just like real melty cheese!!
How did you do that?
Did you mix it with some water and broil it?
Wow! Sounds like a jam-packed (but fun-filled) day!
Awww, I would love to have one of those ballet classes here (Orlando)! I’ve always wanted to be able to do ballet moves 😉
Oh my goodness I want to try black bean pasta, it looks great! I have some brown rice pasta that I’ve not yet broken into also… glad your class was good, have a great night!
Caitlin
Whew, you are just blowing everyones minds with your BB pasta…I was planning to avoid food shopping tomorrow (crazed superbowl fans, aaaaghhh!!) but shucks, I don’t know if I can wait until Monday to go get me some…
That class looks fun to try and yum! Black bean spaghetti! (I have yet to try it though…)
Btw, I always love your clothes. You should do more fashion posts haha. I LOVED your last one.
I was so excited when I came across your blog! I moved to Tucson 6 months ago and got excited when I saw your blue willow post 🙂 I was wondering how you made the black bean spaghetti? It looks fantastic! Thank you!
welcome to t-town 🙂 it’s from whole foods
I am so jealous of all of the fun classes you take! I haven’t found that much variety here in Dallas:(
that’s weird- you’d think in a big city like dallas that they’d offer a lot of classes!
i’ve heard that ballet barre classes are deceptively hard!
Hope you enjoy seeing Viesa!
I’ve always wanted to take one of those classes!
I have a Q on your detox – how are you dealing with cravings for things you can’t have? Do you have a mantra? Or do you just keep your ‘eye on the prize’?
i’ve been keeping my eye on the prize for the most part, but when it’s gotten unbearable, i’ve had a little. i’ve had almond butter and some raw treats before i was supposed to… the almond butter is the one thing i miss the most!
Ballet booty barre is such a good idea! They don’t have those classes here, but I absolutely love ballet and continue to take classes periodically (even though I’m over the hill for dancing–33 :)). It always kicks my butt. Literally. My butt is sore for days…
Yummm that black bean spaghetti looks delicious!!!!!!!!!
Do you think that was the best booty work out you have ever had?
ever? no. but it was definitely a good one!
