What up Monday!? Ugh. Busy, busy week ahead at work, Election Day, & Facetime Lou! Lots of the agenda! Luckily I had a wonderfully restful weekend with lots of cooking, cleaning, and yoga. I decided to give YogaGlo a try and I am so impressed with it. Not sure how well it would work for someone who is just beginning with yoga, but I find it to be kinda amazing. Excited to take another “class” this afternoon after work.

trick or treat

Spent Saturday night trick or treating out in the state park with dear friends and their sweet little gals. Weather was gorgeous! The leaves were amazing.

Ahhh Halloween. Watch for my Halloween cultural “must-haves” tomorrow!

5 healthy foods that taste like heaven

October 18, 2012 § Leave a Comment

Eating healthy is easy when you have these staples in your kitchen. Recipe possibilities are endless–must haves in my book.

Frozen bananas. They taste like ~~candy~~ ice cream. period…especially if they are almost too ripe. Have bananas that are covered in brown spots? QUICK–peel them, chunk them, throw them in a baggie, and freeze. Blend them up with greek yogurt and a little almond milk and you have the richest tasting “milkshake” ever.

Canned pumpkin. NOM. NOM. NOM. Very seasonal I know, but I use it September through May pretty much. Soup, muffins, pasta sauce (recipe coming soon!), smoothies, etc. Can never get enough, tastes so good.

Avocado. Enough said.

Light coconut milk. Again, soups, stews, curries, desserts, etc. So wonderfully rich, tastes so wonderful, but is redonks healthy & vegan.

Toasted coconut. Between its milk, its oil, and its flesh, coconut is the king of richness. So delicious…..(get it!?)

Greek yogurt. It’s a little ridiculous how often I buy these big tubs. My ultimate staple in the kitchen–always use it in place of sour cream, but also of course in smoothies, desserts, cold soups, etc. This photo is not my favorite brand–if I get my pick, I love Fage.

rainy mondays

again, the weather on the weekend was flawless and it started raining on Monday morning. Third week in a row!?! I kinda love it. I take Mondays off from yoga and I don’t have to teach after work so I have been using these rainy autumn afternoons to catch up on my tv (uhhh like this show, and today this, and this).

Oh and speaking of watching stuff, go see Looper! Saw it this weekend and was blown away–sooooo good. JGL never fails me.

sweaters, jeans, and sneakers

On our evening trip to the park last night we wore jeans, sweaters, and sneakers! OUTSIDE! Woot!

Again, the weather has been beautiful and this weekend has been great. Excited for the Emmys tonight! I’ll be live tweeting!

Coffee, doggies, and Fall

November 6, 2011 § 1 Comment

Enjoying a cozy day inside today…AM playdate for Forrest and my brother‘s dog Kyle. Humans enjoyed cinnamon rolls and coffee while the pups frolicked in all the leaves that Andrew and I can’t seem to get picked up…obviously we’re not used to having a yard that needs maintaining. We’re moving to a different house in town on Tuesday (can’t wait…it will be our fifth move in the past three years…hopefully our last for awhile).

So beautiful outside, I know it’s cliché by now, but I just love Fall.
