So Saturday morning I’m laying in bed, waiting for Chris to wake up, browsing social media…totally normal. And then I hopped over to Pinterest and I saw these. And realized I had everything in the cupboard to make them. Trouble. Lets just say I gave you fair warning. You will love these. You will be… Continue Reading
Orange Shimp + Sriracha Chicken

Brownies, Beers and rainy runs
Work turned out to be a little crazier than originally anticipated this week so Thursday night, Chris and I decided that we wanted to get away. We are so, so, so incredibly lucky that we have the opportunity to come to the coast basically whenever we want (thanks to his parents). And in case you… Continue Reading
Not that bad for you Chicken Enchiladas
It’s Tuesday and already we’re not on track with our meal plan. Ok but not that far off. Maybe even healthier. Yesterday instead of having chicken enchiladas we had leftover BBQ chicken pizza and salad. Except I was working until after 7 and was too lazy to chop up any sort of fruit or make… Continue Reading
Almost Silent Sunday
Lazy, lazy weekend. That’s for sure. I was in my jammies until 3:30 this afternoon!!! Finally after that I made myself run for 45 minutes on the treadmill before heading off to the grocery store.

The recipe is adapted from here: Print… Continue Reading

Raised beds and fro yo
The title pretty much sums up my weekend. Seriously. My dad came into town Friday night and we watched a little bball and had a little pizza. And then, because I have a crazy sweet tooth which was inherited from my dad, convinced him we needed treats. Normally our thing is Dairy Queen – Blizzards… Continue Reading
Knee homework + Dawson’s Creek
I’m back in PT. Oh joy. My knee started bugging me a few weeks ago in pilates of all places so I decided it was better to get it checked out now, before Hood To Coast training really starts. Turns out I have some slight patellar tendinitis and another kind of tendinitis that I can’t… Continue Reading
