If my feet could talk they would be screaming obscenities at me for what I just put them through. A 30 minute round-trip walk of pain. I was walking back from a meeting and just about the time I took this picture I was seriously considering taking them off and walking the rest of the… Continue Reading

From pin to plate + killer legs
Pinterest has seriously become my go-to place for recipes and I pinned this one on there what feels like months ago (if you don’t know about Pinterest then I’m pretty sure you’re living under a rock. Go there now and thank me later). In fact it may have been one of my 1st pins. There… Continue Reading
Headphone graveyard
My beloved headphones finally bit the dust today. The left speaker has been out for the past couple months so every time I wear them I only hear things out of the right and I’d gotten pretty used to it. On Friday during some cardio the right started to get a little weird and crakley…I… Continue Reading
Sunday Night Dinner…Texas Style
Have I ever really explained how much I love country? And not just country music. I’m saying give me 5+ acres, a big red barn, a ton of chickens, a watering hole down the street where I can spend my weekends doing the two-step in my cowboy boots, enough of a garden to serve farm… Continue Reading
Rest day
Today is my rest day. As in there will be no working out for my body. I’ve worked out every day this week and normally I would go for a walk or a light bike ride (active rest) but my in-laws are in town and they’re the priority. I’ve heard horror stories about people hating… Continue Reading
If you give a mouse a cookie…

I came home after work to water my plants and saw that my strawberries had finally popped. Woo hoo! There is just something about growing your own food in… Continue Reading
Pilates Jumpboards + Easy Dijon Chicken
Today was jumpboard day in pilates. While I love jumpboard day my legs think it’s pure torture. I love doing pilates on the reformer and I give it 100% credit for my arms and abs. I could never lift another weight or do a sit-up for the rest of my life and as long as… Continue Reading
Sweat is fat crying
And there were plenty of tears shed in my gym tonight. But before we get to my sweaty workout, let’s rewind a bit. To this morning. When my gym bag was all packed up and ready to head out the door at 6:30 for an early morning workout. Except when the alarm went off Chris… Continue Reading
Remember that love does not mean taking your partner for granted, or treating him/her as the target of your frustration, exhaustion, stress. He/she should always be treated like the best gift you will ever have
Just read this over at This Bride’s Joyride. Awesome relationship tips from her momma. I love being married and I’d say Chris and I have a really strong relationship but there are always going to be days that are harder than others. It never hurts to hear some advice from others.… Continue Reading
Better with Sriracha
Um, I was going to get to write about how well I’ve eaten today but then I came home, Chris went on a run and I sat here at the counter eating chips and salsa. I am seriously a chip monster. I hate having them in the house because I just love them so much… Continue Reading
