Git It Girl
Morning friends! <3
The winner of the cool racerback, macaroons and whatever else I decide to throw in there is:
Erin! Congrats girl! Send me your info (fitnessista at gmail dot com + tank size and fave color) so I can get your goodies on the way
Thank you SO much to those of you who entered the macaroon and tank giveaway– it was a record-breaker! It’s been way too long since I’ve done a giveaway, so I’ll be doing more in the future fo sho.
I’ve read every single one of your suggestions and am really excited for what the next year will bring on the bloggy:
(hope you can read my chicken scratch)
Dinner last night was the tamales to my heart:
When my mom told me she had fresh tamales, I was in the car driving to her house, faster than you can say “git it girl”.
They were ahhhhhhhmazing.
This morning, I munched a tiny apple and am on my way to dance before work. B-fast, snacks and lunch are packed up 🙂
See ya later today!
xoxo
Gina

Congrats to the winner — I am super jealous!!!
We are having tamales for lunch at work today! One my coworkers’ wives made them for us. I can’t wait to eat one!
Have a great holiday Gina!
Yay Winter Shape Up!!! I haven’t done any of your winter/summer shape ups before but I’m looking forward to a fun new workout to get me out of my boring treadmill and weights routine!!
Congrats to Erin!!
Thank you for hosting an awesome giveaway too!
Have a great day!
I am most excited about the shop at walmart (lower budget shopping).
Our grocery budget is $300-400 a month for Dh and I. I can’t afford too many specialty items.
Congratulations to Erin!!
Oh man, fresh tamales are the BEST! I love having a Hispanic roommate because her mom hooks it UP!
darnit, i wish i could have won 🙁 lol
Merry Christmas! i look forward to everything with you in 2011
that little apple is too cute! we got tons of fruit baskets from clients at work and i plan on ransacking them for juicing specimens 😉
Those look delicious! Green corn? ah…haven’t had some tamales in forever! Tucson really does have the best Mexican food, no joke!
SO excited for winter shape up and pilot!!!
Congrats Erin, how fun!
Those tamales look ridiculously good! And it looks like 2011 has a lot of great things in store. 🙂
YUM!! I LOVE TAMALES!!!!
And CONGRATS to the winner!!
So bummed I missed the giveaway- I was running around all day yesterday and wasn’t able to check my blogs.. Ah well, can’t wait for the next one! And what lies ahead for 2011 🙂
SO psyched for the start of winter shape up! I am there day 1 ready for ya! and a Merry Christmas to you and your family, but especially your pilot – he is in our thoughts always – you must be so proud 🙂 XOXOXO
I have never eaten a tamale but your enthusiasm for them makes me want to try one the first chance I get! And I am excited for your winter shape up. 🙂
Omg, you’d be a millionaire if you sold those macaroons! Are you ever planning on selling??!?
Yum, I love tamales! My aunt sends some from Texas every year and they rock my Christmas.
Those tamales look so good-too bad you couldn’t do a tamale give away-ha! Have a great day!
Yayyyy so excited for another winter shape up!! I did it last year and lurved it. Can’t wait to see what else is in store for the bloggy!
Congrats to the winner!! And thanks to you Gina for offering this up!!

You taking a breather and coming up for air and enjoying the holidays back in AZ = THE BEST! Enjoy and you deserve it!
Congrats to Erin, lucky girl 🙂
i had fresh tamales the other day and almost died…it’s been WAY too long…and i’m now on a mission to learn how to make them myself!
Congrats to Erin – that giveaway was amazing!! I love your cactus photo at the beginning of the post – looks like your new home is gorgeous!
I love all the blog suggestions and ideas..I especially can’t wait to see the WSU, budget friendly shopping tips, and of course your amazing recipes!!
Tamales are so good! My grandma makes them every year.
christmas tamales are the best. I’m sure your moms are even better! So happy that you are home and happy!

You should really elaborate on what kind of tamales those are….. 🙂
tamale tutorial blog post?? yum my family is making them tomorrow 🙂
for sure!
I’m super excited for everything to come in 2011 (that sounds weird) especially the January Shape Up!! Have a Merry Christmas!
Your posts have become increasingly more positive since you came back to AZ. It’s so good to see you are in a happy place because it really shines through on the blog! Have a wonderful day!
thank you! i am a THOUSAND times happier here 🙂
Tamales are SO freaking good, I can only imagine how awesome homemade ones would be, enjoy!!!

Gina, I am a huge fan of yours, but please don’t do a shop at Wal-Mart anything. Wal-Mart is such a horrible company and they sell very few items made in America. I have not shopped there in well over 10 years because of my hatred for the company and its values. Please, instead, do a focus on normal grocery stores, talk about the dirty dozen, talk about how typical grocery store brands are name brands with a different wrapper. Talk about comparing sales ads and making notes of when certain items are on sale/how often they go on sale. Please please please don’t have anything to do with Wal-Mart.
LOVEE tamales! And I’m excited about the Walmart thing as well~! I don’t have a Whole Foods or even a Trader Joe’s near where I live, so a lot of my food does come from places like Walmart or Target. I’m actually surprised at how much more organic and wholesome foods they carry nowadays! I guess you just have to know how to avoid the processed stuff and stick with foods you can pronounce 🙂
I had tamales for Macayos and they were soooo good! I’m taking my sister sometime this next week and getting some more tamales 😀
Yeay! I see yoga & abs in that chicken scratch!!! Two of my FAVES!!!!!!! Ooh, and monthly playlists would be a GREAT addition to the blog!
Would you be able to share your mom’s recipe for tamales by any chance? I’m dying to make some (just bought a steamer and corn husks!) but want to find a good version to try that doesn’t require lard, and I figured that since you don’t eat meat these would be perfect 🙂
Yay I can’t wait for winter shape up! I’ve been totally slacking on weights lately, so that’s exactly what I need!
lol that picture of you holding the tiny apple cracks me up. I’m not really sure why! I can’t wait for the winter shape up! Also, I’m excited to see your posts on babies in the future! When will the pilot be home?
i wish i could say, but cannot post that info on here
xoxo
ohhhh I should have realized that duh! Sorry. I hope it will go fast for you. :] Merry Christmas!!
How fun! My hubby just ate 50 cent tamales here in Mexico the other night. I am so excited to see more raw recipes in 2011. Thank you for sharing so much of yourself. 🙂
50 cent tamales?! that’s amazing
Those tamels look ridic. How do you make them!?
Congratulations Erin! I’m sure you’ll rock that tank 🙂
I know what you mean about the last minute Christmas, I haven’t even realized that it’s the 23rd!
Just polished off some tamales at my Mom’s 🙂
Feliz Navidad!
Ah! I love Bond, too, but I never thought of them as workout music. Thanks!
Merry Christmas!
