I’m sorry to report that I feel a little bit crappy today. 🙁 I told you guys I felt like I was coming down with a cold last weekend, right? Well, since then I’ve been running around like a crazy lady (pretty typical) and I’ve been slacking on my sleep a bit. Consequently, I feel very, very blah now. It seems like whenever I get sleep deprived, I always get sick. You’d think one of these days I would learn, huh? Anyway, I decided to skip my run yesterday, and now I’m debating if I should go to the gym Continue Reading…

Stressful Life + Cookies and Cream Protein Shake
Happy, happy Friday! Oh my word, I’m so happy it’s Friday. I’ve had a very long week. Auugghh. In fact, I’m feeling a wee bit stressed out and overwhelmed at the moment. Auuuughhh (oh wait, I already said that.) I’m sorry to be a big downer (especially on Friday), but I just need to vent for a moment. Here are a few things that are stressing me out: My house is a wreck and a messy house=a stressed out, ornery mom. Kev’s been out of town for a few days and I don’t like it when he’s gone. He is Continue Reading…
Cafe Zupas Cookbook, Quinoa Salad Recipe and a Giveaway
Cafe Zupas is one of my all-time favorite restaurants. Seriously. I’ve absolutely loved everything I have ever tried there. I particularly love their salads and sandwiches and Kev thinks their soups are the best ever. The staff is always friendly, the service is quick and the food is so fresh and (mostly) healthy too! Love it. Kev and I always love to go there on our date nights. I told you guys all about the wonderful Cafe Zupas VIP event I went to a couple months ago, right? It was such a fun event and Kev and I of course Continue Reading…
Protein Pancakes and a Fun Family Day!
Hello everyone. 😉 This morning I saw three very ripe bananas sitting on my counter… I really didn’t want to chuck them (and I already have a bunch of frozen ones in my freezer), so I decided to make some Banana Bread Protein Pancakes! I’m so glad I did. They were wonderful! I even decided to get creative and take some pretty pictures. 😉 So yummy! I decided to make a triple batch, so I would have a bunch leftover to freeze. I think I’ll be set for a while! I asked my two littlest kiddos if they wanted some Continue Reading…
A Run, Good Food and a Yummy Basic Crock Pot Chicken Recipe!
Happy, happy Friday! I started off my morning with a wonderful short run. I’ve been doing my Body for Life runs on the treadmill, but today I decided to take it outside! I look a little sinister in this pic….eeee. It’s been raining a lot the past couple of days, so the weather this morning was cool, crisp and fall-ish. I loved it! And after I took this pic, I realized it looks like I wet my pants because I’m standing in a giant wet spot, lol! I followed the same Body for Life Interval run plan, but I didn’t Continue Reading…
