Pad Thai with Peas?

1st, sad news.  My beloved Canon T3i somehow got knocked around in SF and got injured.  She can still take pictures but the top of the case became loose and that just can’t be good.  Because Canon is awesome they are letting me send it back in to get fixed for free (hopefully). Anyway, she’sContinue Reading

Beet brownies

Beet brownies

So the last time we were at Costco I told Chris I HAD to have the party sized box of pre-steamed baby beets.  He told me it was an impulse purchase.  I told him he was wrong.  I’d eat all the beets in my lunches. Um, that’s a lot of beets.  After going through aContinue Reading

Fall days + Butternut squash sweet potato soup

So this past week has been awful…well, really just on the healthy eating/working out front.  Work is good, friends are good, life is good.  I just somehow can’t seem to pull myself together and get back on track in regards to all things fitness.  It sucks.  It’s hard for me.  It drives me crazy thatContinue Reading

Turkey Mac

So I just opened up my pictures folder and found pictures to a dinner that I never talked about on here.  What the heck?  That’s what being busy will do to a girl. So without further delay, here is a quick and easy, tasty dinner using some of my last summer tomatoes…cue the violins. TurkeyContinue Reading

Orange Juice

Today I can’t wait to wear this shirt (under my layers of black…down vest, rain jacket etc – 48 degrees at kickoff). I’m so proud of my husband for helping to bring this to market :)  Go here for some info on the whole Beaver juice  story. In other orange juice news, I used theContinue Reading

Efficient workouts + shrimp pasta

Week one of the new job is one the books.  Done and done. I also tried out my new lunchtime workout schedule for the 1st time and I feel like it’s going to be doable.  Honestly the only negative thing that was going through my mind when I was dealing with all this job stuffContinue Reading

Can you believe this is October? + My favorite Salmon

Um seriously how are we still getting weather like this?  We are living on borrowed time my friends because any day now the rains will come.  But until they do, we’re taking advantage of it. Like yesterday when we decided to hit up Journeys after work (me in flip flops and shorts). Sadly they areContinue Reading

2 October Challenges, family visits + I can’t stop eating M&Ms

Couple things to talk about today…the most interesting might be that I physically cannot stop eating M&Ms.  Like seriously impossible.  My mom gave me a bag of the minis which she said we were suppose to save and give out as Halloween Candy (um, have you met me and my sweet tooth) and I wasn’tContinue Reading

Spicy chicken tomato cream sauce over broccoli

Wait, what is going on here? Someone is blogging about her day the day it actually happened? Like for real, on an actual computer? Pinch me I must be dreaming. And what great things do I have to share with you today? How about a little twist on a classic? Like I’ve mentioned here before,Continue Reading

Pumpkin Peanut Butter Cream Cheese Muffins

Like I mentioned here I procrastinated yesterday and baked instead of being productive.  Well, good thing I did because these muffins were worth it.  You know what else was worth it?  Being home and able to take pictures in perfect light. And now for the recipe.  I started with Tina’s Pumpkin Walnut Paleo muffins and thenContinue Reading
