FLIPpin’ Awesome Giveaway

Hey everyone! How’s your morning going?? If you enjoyed a long weekend (yeahhhhh), here on some things that went down on the bloggy:

Summer Shape Up Week 2 Workout went up!

-We planted our little garden

and

enjoyed a lovely date night

Last night, the pilot finally got the shrimp and prosciutto penne pasta he’d been hankering for:

shrimp pasta

Recipe is in *this cookbook*

I rolled with spelt pasta, olive oil, garlic, basil and tomato

spelt pasta

and we both had salads with roasted beet, onion, goat cheese and balsamic

salad

A perfect little meal 🙂

dinner

We chilled at the casa, I coerced the pilot to watch How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days (best movie EVERRRR, even with his snide commentary haha) and we called it a night 🙂

The plan for today is:

-3 training appointments

-Weights (upper body)

-Post office

-Clean downstairs

-Make raw strawberry tart for Thurs night girl’s night

-Insanity

-Back to work

Before I go…

here’s that giveaway I’ve been hinting at 😉

Remember my Christmas gift from the pilot??

    I would love my TV to let me have all the movie channels for free!



  2. Kristin on June 1, 2010 at 11:47 am

    If my T.V. could do anything, it would watch and record everything that goes on in my living room/den. So, that it’d be like constant home movies…catching all of the lovely moments and memories of everyday life! 🙂



  3. Kristin on June 1, 2010 at 11:48 am

    If my tv could do anything, I would jump into the amazing locations featured on travel shows



  4. Brittany on June 1, 2010 at 11:48 am

    If my TV could do anything, it would have “smell-a-vision” where I could smell all the amazing dishes on all my favorite cooking shows!



  5. Emily on June 1, 2010 at 11:51 am

    I would want my TV to let me jump into the screen and be a part of whatever show was on. Awesome giveaway, Gina!



  6. Heather on June 1, 2010 at 11:51 am

    If my tv could do anything, I would jump in to train with Bob and Jillian on The Biggest Loser!



  7. Karyn on June 1, 2010 at 11:51 am

  8. Lisa on June 1, 2010 at 11:54 am

    If my TV could do anything, I would want to be able to taste all the yummy things from the cooking shows on tv!



  9. Leigh on June 1, 2010 at 11:54 am

    If my TV could do anything,it would have a button that would create the meals that are prepared on cooking shows, so I could also taste the food with out the work.



  10. Kristin M on June 1, 2010 at 11:55 am

    If my tv could do anything, I would want it to wake me up in the morning and make me get out of bed to get my workout in. I would also want it to help motivate my workouts, and tell me to do 3 more pushups, or hold the sqaut for 10 more seconds. That would be awesome!



  11. Chelsea on June 1, 2010 at 11:58 am

    If my TV could do anything.. I would want an On Demand for all the different meals from the Food Network! Oh that would be amazing!



  12. tiffany on June 1, 2010 at 11:58 am

    if my tv could do anything, it would let me reach in and grab the food that the food network stars are cooking, and then i could change the channel and eat while i enjoy gossip girl/biggest loser/grey’s/etc. 😛



  13. Lindsay on June 1, 2010 at 11:58 am

    If my TV could do anything, it would have an option to automatically scale the volume for me depending on the level of background noise.. just like cars!



  14. Janna ~ Just Flourishing on June 1, 2010 at 11:59 am

    If my TV could do anything… I would want it to always have all the Sex and the City episodes and all my favorite movies on demand for free! THAT would be awesome.



  15. Sarra H on June 1, 2010 at 11:59 am

    If my TV could do anything…what wouldn’t it do?



  16. Liz on June 1, 2010 at 11:59 am

    If my TV could do anything, I would want it to be able to smell all the delicious dishes from Food Network; sometimes just being able to smell the dish lets you know that you’re cooking it correctly.



  17. Jess on June 1, 2010 at 12:01 pm

    if my tv could do anything…it would teleport me to all the amazing places I see on the Travel Channel!



  18. mattie on June 1, 2010 at 12:01 pm

    Ohh…fun question! I would either want to jump in and smooch Peter Krause or find myself at judges table on Top Chef!



  19. Stephanie on June 1, 2010 at 12:01 pm

    If my TV could do anything, I would want it to instantly play any show or topic I can think of! Enough of this boring summer TV!



  20. Ashley on June 1, 2010 at 12:02 pm

    I’d love it if my TV would allow me to enter any TV show, especially nature and travel shows 😉



  21. Jodie on June 1, 2010 at 12:02 pm

    I love the travel channel so if my tv could do anything, it would transport me to all those countries I so want to visit.



  22. Nikki on June 1, 2010 at 12:03 pm

    If my Tv could do anything, I would want it to not let me watch any of my favorite shows unless I did my daily exercise already or let me jump into movies like Twilight so I could see sexy Robert Pattinson! 🙂



  23. Katy on June 1, 2010 at 12:03 pm

    If my TV could do anything, i would want it to be interactive, so i can actually communicate with the people in the shows that i love to watch.



  24. Erin on June 1, 2010 at 12:04 pm

    I want my TV to have “smell-a-vision”. Watching Food Network with smell-a-vison- would be insane!!!!!!!!!



  25. Madison on June 1, 2010 at 12:08 pm

    I would want my TV to be a transporter. So when I am watching the travel channel and they are featuring a beautiful tropical island or romantic European escape, I want to be able to “step” right in.



  26. KelseyJ on June 1, 2010 at 12:11 pm

    If my TV could do anything, I would want it to project the picture on the screen, live, INTO my living room…that way I could be “on-set” of my favourite shows! That would be stellar for all of my favourite cooking shows!



  27. Kacy on June 1, 2010 at 12:15 pm

    If my TV could do anything, it would make hottie TV celebs fall madly in love with my at my will 🙂



  28. Jenna on June 1, 2010 at 12:15 pm

    Hmm, that is a tough one! I think I’d want to be able to jump into my TV and hang out with the Friends cast. 🙂



  29. Kim on June 1, 2010 at 12:15 pm

    If my TV could do anything I could push a button and end up at one of the beautiful desitinations on the travel channel!



  30. Kacy on June 1, 2010 at 12:16 pm

    That would be “fall in love with me” Oops!



  31. Tracey on June 1, 2010 at 12:16 pm

    If my TV could do anything, I would like to be able to jump into/out of any program I’m watching. I would be watching the Travel channel ALL the time!



  32. Stephanie on June 1, 2010 at 12:18 pm

    I would love if my tv would have “smell-o-vision” for when I’m watching cooking shows!!!



  33. Laura J. on June 1, 2010 at 12:19 pm

    Everytime I saw a cute outfit on a show/commercial/movie/etc, my TV would transport it to my closet.

    That roasted beet and goat cheese salad looks divine. I’m going to have to try that combo! 🙂



  34. Diana on June 1, 2010 at 12:20 pm

    I would want the ability to reach into the tv and grab the ingredients I don’t have when watching cooking shows! I hate when they say you should have something on hand but it’s random and weird.

    That and I want to be able to have some tastes of what they are cooking/eating! 😉



  35. Emily N on June 1, 2010 at 12:20 pm

    If my t.v. could do anything, it would instantly display menus of all the local restaurants – including the daily specials – and allow me to order delivery with my remote control!



  36. Morgan on June 1, 2010 at 12:20 pm

    It would let me try all the amazing food that gets created on Top Chef!!!



  37. Erica on June 1, 2010 at 12:21 pm

    If my TV could do anything, I’d love to hop over to any destination on the travel channel!



  38. Jessica on June 1, 2010 at 12:22 pm

    If my tv could do anything I would want to be able to go on the set of the amazing cooking shows and be able to try the wonderful dishes and see how everything is made!



  39. Amy on June 1, 2010 at 12:24 pm

    Spontaneoulsy combust so that I could have my husband’s FULL attention 😉



  40. junghwa on June 1, 2010 at 12:26 pm

    i would love TV to take me to places. i would love to visit all over the world!



  41. Krissy on June 1, 2010 at 12:29 pm

    I would love a TV that would let me head into some of its stories!



  42. Susan on June 1, 2010 at 12:29 pm

    If my TV could do anything, it would transport all of amazing fashion from my DVR’d Sex & The City reruns and the cool products from commercials right to my door!



  43. Taylor-made Wife on June 1, 2010 at 12:30 pm

    First let me say that the strawberry tart sounds yummy. Have you posted that recipe before?

    On to the task at hand- If my TV could do anything, I would want to teleport to the scene on TV…tropical beach? okay! Food Network show?yum yum! Workout promo? I’ll play!



  44. Felicia on June 1, 2010 at 12:31 pm

    If my TV could do anything it would let me enter it and be wherever the show was at that moment–preferably anywhere the travel channel and food network are 🙂



  45. Rachel on June 1, 2010 at 12:32 pm

    Question: How did you get your training certifications? Where did you go through and do you have recommendations for someone that wants to get trainer certified?



  46. Mari B on June 1, 2010 at 12:36 pm

    If my tv could do anything it would keep the volume of annoying commercials the same as whatever show I’m watching. Why do they get louder???



  47. Christi on June 1, 2010 at 12:38 pm

    If my TV could do anything I would want a cooking show where they could see me cooking and tell me what I’m doing wrong! LOL!! That dinner looked delish!! I’ll have to find those recipes. Yum!



  48. Sara on June 1, 2010 at 12:38 pm

    If my TV could do anything, it would transport me to the location of the show I am watching with the push of a button. I would spend as much time as possible traveling all over the world. (Maybe to some fictional worlds also.)



  49. Kat (myfruitylife) on June 1, 2010 at 12:40 pm

    If my tv could do anything, it would be able to serve me raw treats while I watch my shows and never leave the couch or ‘uncook’ again. 🙂



  50. Brooke on June 1, 2010 at 12:40 pm

    If my TV could do anything it would allow me to pause when I saw something I liked be it a place, an outfit, a meal, etc. and I could either transport myself to the place, take the outfit and wear it, or reach in and eat the delicious meal.
