On our way
Hey friends! Hope youโre having a lovely morning so far <3
I didnโt get the chance to post again last night because after work — we went to dinner with the fam and then it was packing, get-ready frenzy up in herrrre.
Work was fantastic โI love it so much- and then I came home and munched an omelet that the Pilot made me, and then my mom called to see if we wanted to meet for dinner. Isnโt that the physics of eating? You eat something and then someone calls to see if you want to go eat. The Pilot was hungry, so we met up with the fam at Oreganoโs, a Tucson fave.
Oreganoโs has the BEST salad beasts, but since I had just eaten my omelet, I enjoyed some side dishes instead ๐
The table shared sweet potato fries
and a PIZOOKIE!!!!!
Pizookie! Pizookie! Pizoooooooooookie! <โa cookie baked in a pizza dish, but not completely so itโs still gooey and warm, topped with ice cream and chocolate chips. Um, yeah.
Gloriousness.
When we got home, it was time for some of this:
I didnโt even mind packing because Iโm SO EXCITED! ๐
Time to hop on that big white bird in the sky to Vegas. See ya tonight with some shenanigans!
xoxo

Headโs up: Summer Shape Up in the morning! If youโd like to follow the workout plan, today is your active rest day ๐ Take Fido for a walk, practice some yoga, or just walk around the mall for a while ๐ Take it easy.
My mom does that to me ALL the time! If she would just become psychic and call me 30 mins earlier… ๐
Safe travels!!
Weeeee have an amazing time love!! Vegas will be a blast. Also that is totally the physics of eatting — ahah that always happens to me too, but then I think to myself that it is good I got some good food in my belly before eating tons of restaurant food!
Have a great time in Vegas!
Oh my gosh! I am totally jealous of your Pizookie! They are the BEST! ๐
HAVE A BLAST!!!!!!!!!! As I know you will.
And what happens in Vegas stays in Vegas. But hopefully some of it makes it onto the blog ๐
Can’t wait to hear where you eat and what shows you see and how many massages/spa treatments you get b/c I know I would be if I were checking into a Vegas hotel today ๐
i didn’t get a reply on your last post where I asked this– really hoping you might get to it –
re GF oats a lot more expensive?
Also I found a post about this:
http://thepointwellness.tumblr.com/post/6041988551/annoying-bumps-on-the-backs-of-your-upper-arms
and was wondering if you could substantiate it โ the blogger didnโt reply
I don’t know what kind Gina buys, but I can get 32 oz. bags of Bob’s Red Mill gluten-free oats for about $7.00. You can also buy them in bulk on Amazon – 4 bags for about $20.
yeah i pay about 5.99 for bob’s red mill
But do you know if there’s any validity to the post about Keratosis Pilaris being related to gluten/carb eating? like the link suggests – she doesn’t source it
i haven’t heard about that- will have to read the link later, sorry!
I haven’t found any medical publications linking keratosis pilaris to gluten consumption, only forums where people believe it is linked for them personally. The only skin issue I have seen medically published with a connection is dermatitis herpetiformis. (Google search gluten and D.P. along with only .edu sources)
thanks for the help, girl!
Thanks for the input Carolyn –
Have a blast Pilot and Gina!!!!!!! xoxo <3
Have the most amazing time in Vegas!! Is it weird that I think you kind of look like the girl on the Oregano’s menu?
I was gonna write the exact same thing!
OMG I completely agree!! I was just about to post that.
haha! aww, thank you ๐
Have a great trip! Can’t wait to see all of your fun eats.
pizookie’s are awesome! I’ve only had one once but it was very memorable. Have fun in Vegas!
Have a great time in Vegas! Can’t wait to read about what you guys do over there.
have a great time in vegas! ๐
YAH! I hope that you two have a blast in Vegas! I was just starting to plan a girls trip there for the end of the summer. Enjoy your relax time and have tons of fun ๐ ๐
As if I needed more ridiculously delicious dessert words in my vocabulary! ๐ PIZOOKIE. Thank you.
HAVE SO MUCH FUN IN VEGAS! Post a million pictures- please and thank you! ๐
Enjoy your time in Vegas and be careful!
Have a blasty!!!!
That girl on the menu looks like you… or whatever that is, record album? sign?
Love you!
Pizookies are the best! I’ve only had them twice, but they are incredible. Last weekend I had a red velvet pizookie. I died.
wow that is a great picture of you on the menu ๐
MMM, pizookie! I need to make a GF one stat.
Have a great time in Vegas with The Pilot.
Packing isn’t so bad when you know you’re going somewhere exciting. Packing to move though? Ugh! ๐
Have an amazing trip!!
Have a great trip and have fun!!!
have a fabulous time in vegas Gina!!!!
I don’t really miss cheese or bread until I think about Oregano’s pizza, the absolute BEST!!!! Add in the pizzookie and I’m totally jealous. Hope you have fun in Vegas, I can’t wait to go back.
Can’t wait to see the fun you have in Vegas! I usually go once or twice a year. Love it because it’s the one place I go where 3 nights feels like the perfect amount of time to take it all in and to wear cute dresses that I can’t find reasons to wear otherwise! Enjoy!
Have a great mini vacation. I have never had a pizzookie. It looks delish though.
VEGAS!!! You’ll be a five hour drive from me (I’m in San Diego)! ๐
You’re gonna have a blast!! If you want to wine & dine, stop by (my old work) Strip House (a steak house) in the Planet Hollywood Hotel. I promise the pilot will be in steak heaven and you will be in salmon heaven. ๐ Oh, and their garlic-herb crusted french fries are what legends are made of. Safe flight!
Have a super time!
I think I could eat sweet potato fries every day!!! Mmm!
I don’t mind packing at all, its UNpacking that I hate…
especially the laundry that follows.
me too. i haaaate laundry!
Is that cookie dessert GF? It looks good.
nope, i wish! i had about 4 bites, and it didn’t bother me ๐
Haha, when I glanced at the post before reading I definitely thought the woman on the menu was a portrait of you! Hahaha. So gorgeous ๐
I love sweet potato fries – I think I could eat them every day! That meal looks delicious and I am a total sucker for a cookie sundae – especially cooked like that!
