Almost Perfect

May 28, 2010 30 Comments

Just got back from an early morning run.

I slept great and woke up feeling like I wanted to run.

So I ran!  No music, no garmin, no watch.  It was great :)

Well Bloggy Friends I can not lie.

Last night with my delicious veggie bowl:

I had a glass of wine.  Sigh.  It was wonderful.

Oh well I almost made it to Friday!  And it is Smoothie Friday at that :)

Today in my smoothie I am gonna try some new things in addition to my beloved amazing grass:

Can’t wait to see how the hemp protein is and I know I will love the hemp milk.

Speaking of new products, last night Bill and I sampled a few of these delicious treats:

Oh these are good!  And I am so impressed with the short ingredient list:

Tabata Torture

May 27, 2010 17 Comments

Once again we had a great workout with Khrystle.

I can’t tell you how much I love working out with her.  She pushes me out of my comfort zone each and every workout.  I would NEVER push myself as hard as I do when I work out alone.

Today we took the Tabata concept and instead of using the ropes like last time, we used the tabata concept and did lunges, burpees, and some other crazy moves that I can’t remember!

me and Sarah

us again!

Oh the dreaded plank

Now Bill and I are discussing what we want for dinner.

I think grilled veggies are gonna win out :)

I am gonna announce the lucky winner of the Amazing Grass giveaway tomorrow morning!  Whoever wins is lucky because you win this:

Have a great night and thanks for reading :)

  • pasta sauce
  • chopped up basil
  • garlic
  • sliced mushrooms
  • spices
  • chopped up Buffalo Mozzarella
  • frozen corn

It was good!

Just what I needed to get me through The Hump.

I finished my bowl off with a few almonds and hot sauce:

We also sipped on some of this:

Speaking of this-it is time to announce the lucky winner of one of these bottles!

The random number generator came up with 71 and that is the Eating Rd!

Hope you all have a lovely day.

I plan on getting through work and then going for a run.

I Love my Grass

May 18, 2010 32 Comments

Last night we had another great salad.

I think the key to salads is variety.

When I make mine I try for:

  • a variety of lettuce
  • some veggies cooked
  • most veggies uncooked

Then top the salad off with the fun stuff!

  • avocado
  • nuts/raisins
  • “croutons”-lately I have been cutting up millet bread
  • jalapeno or peppercinnis
  • olives or sundried tomatoes

I usually dress my salad in a bit of olive oil and hummus.

Last night I used this hummus:

And the salad was spectacular with a side of Bill’s leftover pizza :)

I do love my grass in salad form and in Amazing Grass!

Have I told you that even when I go out to buy a smoothie I bring my grass along?

Last Friday was Bike and Smoothie Friday and I did just that:

I love my amazing grass superfood!

Lately I have been having it twice a day.  Since it is the end of the year at work I have been feeling particularly drained and I really feel my grass keeps me healthy.

If you would like to try some or just need to restock, the great people at Amazing Grass sent me a coupon code for my readers.  If you use:

‘healthy123′ you will get a discount off of your order.

Yay!

Have a great Tuesday-I told you we would make it through Monday together :)
