Tooty Testing

I drove home from the gym this morning to this beautiful scene. As usual with sunrises – the picture doesn’t do it justice. The color was insane. Speaking of insane…my day. From 7:40am – 3:45pm I had ONE fifteen minute break from my kiddos. (In that time, I ate lunch, wrote a social studies test, … Continue reading »

Enjoying Eats

The mix: 1 cup coconut milk, 1 banana, 1 cup ice, 1 scoop protein powder, ½ cup water, 10(ish) ice cubes, 2 -3 handfuls of spinach For lunch… Leftover risotto Meeker and I tag teamed … Continue reading »

Memory Soup

Breakfast has slowly become one of my least favorite meals. Maybe it’s Baby Cakes’ fault. Maybe it’s not. Either way, I had a piece of toast before my workout this morning. Boring. Definitively not picture worthy. Lunch was much better. Spinach salad with cucumbers, pecans, raisins, and ½ a blended grapefruit as the dressing. Plus … Continue reading »

Cold Day

It wasn’t as much of a snow day as it was a cold day. It never even approached 1 degree. And see that feels like temperature? Negative 30! That’s why we didn’t have school today AND we don’t have school tomorrow. Yippee for freezing temperatures! I actually braved the cold to run some errands today, … Continue reading »

Turkey Stroganoff

I haven’t cooked dinner for myself or Meeker in weeks. Maybe even a month. But that all changed today. I had a hankering for something comforting – so I browsed soup recipes, but then beef stroganoff popped into my head, and I decided to make turkey stroganoff because I like turkey more than I like … Continue reading »

Onion bagel with avocado and toffuti cream cheese – Panini pressed Spinach, red peppers, cranberries, walnuts, cucumber and dressing made from … Continue reading »

A guy in a class

I’m freeeezing and I want to go get in a hot bath – so I’ll make this quick! Breakfast Banana, apples, mixed berries, flax seed Then I walked to work (in the dark..ugh) and was hungry again when I got there – so I warmed up with some tea and two baby muffins. Sarah’s pumpkin … Continue reading »

Bring Your Parents to Work Day

Haha, it’s so funny that you guys all commented on the tall thing yesterday. Yes, I’m tall – a little over 5’8″ – but I’ve never thought of myself as tall because the majority of my family is over 6 feet tall (girls and guys). So, actually I kind of consider myself on the short … Continue reading »

I love me some Thursdays. Even on vacation – it’s such a sweet day. I like sweet things… Breakfast Watermelon + apples Sweet, juicy and delicious Lunch Weird hodge podge salad – broccoli slaw, spaghetti squash, black beans salsa After this salad, I wanted to show my love for some fat. So I hugged it. … Continue reading »

Broccoli and Chocolate

Another lovely summer day. I don’t mean to shove it in your faces that I’m on vacation for two months, but really…life is good. I wish you all had summer vacations. I started the good life this morning with a super smoothie. 1 cup frozen spinach, ½ cup frozen blackberries, ¼ cup POM juice, ½ … Continue reading »
