Just Ask

“Gonna be ok…

doo doo doo

Just Ask

Spin that record babe

doo doo doo”

I can turn any phase into a song 😉 Whether or not said songs are good is totally irrelevant.

The point of that ridiculousness is to say that I’ve gotten trendy and jumped on the Ask Me Anything train 😀 All the other bloggers are doing it (like Tina, Meghann and Kate), so I figured I’d give it a whirl and thought it would help with some Reader’s Request post ideas.

So, Ask Me Anything 😀

Before I get into last’s night’s events, here’s the winner of the chia seed giveaway!

LISA S.!! Congrats lady! Send me your info so I may forward it to the chia fairy 😀

I wish I could tell you that many exciting things happened last night, but after I last saw you, I laid on the couch, watched Hoarders on the DVR and drank tea until the pilot got home.

Then I had soup (Amy’s barley vegetable) and roasted asparagus for dinner:

(The pilot had roasted chicken with lemon and thyme, asparagus and brown rice)

After that, the pilot and I cracked open a bottle of Pinot Noir, watched Couples Retreat then crashed out.

I slept, and slept, and slept.

Tn aenwoke to a beautiful breakfast cookie:

This beauty had:

1/2 C multigrain oats

1/2 scoop vanilla Sun Warrior

goji berries

cacao nibs

1 T almond butter

1 smashed banana

almond milk

It was pretty face-rocking 😀

I set out on a mission for shoes but didn’t have any luck. I did, however, find an awesome necklace to wear, a sweater, two dresses and a belt 😉

After my shopping extravaganza (or whatever would be close to that, considering I live in Valdosta, bahah), I had a bar:

and then met Jeni at the gym for 35 minutes of ellipticizing and chatting 😀 It’s my off day, so I took it super easy.

Now I’m back at the casa and going to take a nap so I look as fresh as I can (considering that I’m sick) for tonight’s dining out. I’ll be sure to take lots of pics for ya’ll—the pilots are wearing their mess dress. You can put any man into that outfit and he looks like a total dreamboat stud. I’m not joking 😀 It should be a lovely evening.

See ya on Valentine’s Day 😀

xoxo,

Gina

Something to talk about: What are you doing for V-day??? The pilot and I are escaping to a beach resort for the night, but in my pre-pilot days, my girlfriends and I would get together, drink wine, eat chocolate and watch sappy movies. I’ve always been a fan of Valentine’s Day 😀

  2. Brittany on February 13, 2010 at 3:07 pm

    I hope you have a romantic Valentine’s Day – a beach resort sounds quite lovely.

    Isaac and I have dinner plans and then we might go see the Valentine’s Day movie. V-day is also my birthday so I’ve always loved it as well.

  3. Nicole @ Making Good Choices on February 13, 2010 at 3:12 pm

    I wish we were escaping to a beach resort! We will be cooking and staying in with wine and a movie. sounds almost as good as what your doing 🙂 hey its the company that matters right?

    • Fitnessista on February 13, 2010 at 3:13 pm

    Your night away sounds so nice. It is our wedding anniversary today so we don’t really celebrate Valentine’s Day that much. But we are going for breakfast tomorrow morning, which should be nice as we really don’t do that much.

    Have a great night tonight. I look forward to seeing the pictures!

    How was Couples Retreat? I would like to see it if it is any good!

    • Fitnessista on February 13, 2010 at 3:25 pm

      couples retreat is pretty hilarious 😀

  6. Rachel on February 13, 2010 at 3:19 pm

    My boyfriend is away on deployment 🙁 but already sent me some amazing V Day gifts! He’s a keeper 😉 so tomorrow i’m spending the day with my mom… Mani pedis, lunch and shopping!

    • Fitnessista on February 13, 2010 at 3:25 pm

      that sounds like a lovely day 😀
      something about getting gifts from them while they’re deployed makes it even better, huh? so sweet

  7. fittingbackin on February 13, 2010 at 3:35 pm

    Have fun at the resort!! We’re just hanging in with the pup on this snowy, cold day!!

  8. Kelly Michelle on February 13, 2010 at 3:52 pm

    wow beach resort sounds AMAZING!! have fun. Somehow my shopping trips always turn into nothing I need and five things I don’t hah, no matter where I go… mall, target, publix, you name it.

    How was couples retreat? the bf and I are thinking of watching it for a Vday movie

  9. Jessica @ The Process of Healing on February 13, 2010 at 4:02 pm

    Wow sounds like you have an amazing V-Day in store girlie!
    I have a date but I’m not sure what that will entail as of yet..

    And I love those bars!

  10. Ally (Exercise and Pies) on February 13, 2010 at 4:11 pm

    i’m going to the melting pot (a fondue place) and swapping gifts with my boyfriend. Before him, I used to love watching the sappy movies that come out at v-day with a big group of girl friends

    • Fitnessista on February 13, 2010 at 4:29 pm

      melting pot is our fave! reservations were booked though

  11. Paige (Running Around Normal) on February 13, 2010 at 4:29 pm

    Aw, sorry you didn’t find any shoes 🙁 Hopefully you’ll find some backups in your closet!
    Have fun tonight!

  12. Abby on February 13, 2010 at 4:34 pm

    Beach resort sounds sooo nice! My husband took me to a vegetarian restaurant! And we went to hotel last weekend when the snow storm left us without power and heat…so I count that as a winter resort!

  13. kt F on February 13, 2010 at 4:42 pm

    Not sure if I’m going to do anything fun for V-day… might go see the movie Valentine’s with some girlfriends, maybe? And I am notorious for turning anything and everything into a song haha.

  14. Molly on February 13, 2010 at 4:59 pm

    um i was signing that song in my head just now, and then read the beginning of your post. weirrrrd. crazy when that happens!

  15. The Brunette on February 13, 2010 at 5:02 pm

    I’ve noticed that you take a lot of weekend road trips. If you were to go on a longer vacation abroad, where would you go? Would the local food be a draw (it always is for me…)?

  16. Tyler Ramey on February 13, 2010 at 5:09 pm

    Lovin’ the GaGa love!!!

    My Valentines Day will be spent doing Group Strength training for AFAA…..such excitement, eh???

    <3

  17. Angela @ A Healthy Fit on February 13, 2010 at 5:13 pm

    Sorry you didn’t find shoes, but looks like you found some other good stuff. Tomorrow I plan on starting with Zumba (my second class 🙂 ), then some hot yoga, then target, a movie and heart shaped pizza with my sweetie.

  18. Alice on February 13, 2010 at 5:52 pm

    First year I have a BF on valentine’s day and I’m out of the country. Boo. Also he ‘does not believe’ in valentines day and I made the terrible error of telling him I am not too fussed. Which I’m not, but c’mon, that’s like a get out of jail free card. And how can I really say I don’t need valentines day chocolates or Roses if I’ve never had them! I didn’t know I needed almond butter until I’d had it for the first time, either. 😛

    I’m in Japan at the moment, so I will have a valentines day of treating myself. Some shopping, a lovely japanese Matcha and Wagashi in a teahouse, then probably go to an Ofuro bath to drown my sorrows (metaphorically, of course).

    I may have to send my sweetie chocolates too, girls giving to boys on V day is the way it’s done here, and as Will Ferrel would say -‘when in Rome’ (tokyo)… http://www.tanutech.com/japan/valentine.html

  19. Karyn on February 13, 2010 at 6:12 pm

    have fun! and i agree 100% about the mess dress 🙂

  20. Jessica on February 13, 2010 at 6:12 pm

    The pilots dress uniforms are so much better than an airman’s dress uniform! My husband’s dress uniform looked like a blue box! I liked his everyday uniform much better. Anyway, I’m very happy that you’ll be starting your own vegan cafe/bakery! I can’t wait to see what the menu will look like!

  21. Jessica @ WHY DONTCHA RUN on February 13, 2010 at 6:25 pm

    My hubby and I celebrated Valentines Day on Tuesday. We wanted to skip all the crowds, so we went out for fondue… it was amazing! 🙂 We had such a wonderful time together. I hope you and the pilot have a great time and you get to feelin’ 100% better!

  22. Anna @ Newlywed, Newly Veg on February 13, 2010 at 6:40 pm

    Ooh, escaping to a beach resort– lucky duck!!! We’re stuck here in cold, dreary PA 🙁

  23. Melissa (MelissaLikesToEat) on February 13, 2010 at 7:28 pm

    Can’t wait to see pics!! I hope you’re feeling better. Sounds like you have a romantic day planned for tomorrow! Hubby and I are going out Monday night for V-day dinner. 🙂

  24. Shannon on February 13, 2010 at 8:56 pm

    Just wanted to say a (late) congrats to you! I live in Lake City, so I just might have to shimmy up I-75 to good ol’ Valdosta once your open for business :). Hope you have a great Valentine’s Day!

    • Fitnessista on February 13, 2010 at 11:54 pm

      whoo hoo! i’d love that 😀

  25. Aria on February 13, 2010 at 9:14 pm

    Congrats on your exciting news! I just saw the post 🙂 Can’t wait to finally get to try all the yummy goodies I always see on your blog!

  26. Madame Cur on February 13, 2010 at 9:48 pm

    I am looking forward to being able to buy your goodies online. Will you be offering nutritional info for all items such as calorie count, etc?

    Good luck!

  27. Leo @ Cupcakes in Paris on February 14, 2010 at 6:55 am

    I’m a fan of Valentines day too… Tonight the husband is taking me to a greek restaurant! I’m so looking forward to it!

  28. Jessica @ How Sweet It Is on February 14, 2010 at 8:35 am

    A beach resort sounds so wonderful! I wish we lived close enough that we could do something like that. My hubby cooked me dinner for Valentines Day last night, and it was so good. I was scared of his cooking skills, so it ended up being a great treat! 🙂

  29. All Women Stalker on February 14, 2010 at 11:56 am

    I just love your cookies! They look so delicious!

  30. Heather @ get healthy with Heather on February 14, 2010 at 9:12 pm

    My hubbie and I don’t really do much for v day but this year we just so happened to be snowshoeing… Romantic eh? Very 🙂
