Whelp, this weekend is the fourth and final wedding I will be attending this summer. It’s been real, married friends, but I’m ready to stop traveling. This weekend is kind of like the grand finale, though, because the person getting married is my friend of 25 years. Can’t wait to be the maid of honor…

Easy, Yeast-Free Pizza Crust
I have a recipe to share with you that has been a long time coming. Every Sunday evening, Matt and I have pizza for dinner. I’m not too thrilled about eating frozen pizzas all the time, though, so I often make my own homemade version to have more control over the ingredients. There’s one thing though:…
Vega Sport Protein Bar Review
Good morning and happy Friday!!! I’m here to talk about food today – so rare for this blog, I know. I was selected through a Sweat Pink campaign to review a Vega Sport product – more specifically, the Vega Sport Protein Bar. Although protein and energy bars aren’t usually found in my kitchen, having these…
A Few of My Favorite Things
I have two orders of business today. 1. Congrats to David who won my Popchips giveaway! Thank you to all who participated. 🙂 2. I’m 25! This week is my birthday week – that’s right, I’m going to claim the whole week. Last week, since one of my coworkers was leaving for her honeymoon asap,…
Wedding at a Vineyard & I Signed Up for a New Race!!
Matt and I had the honor of spending our Saturday evening at my coworker’s wedding. It was the second wedding I’ve been to here in San Diego, and I must say…it was just as amazing as the first, which was by the bay overlooking downtown. This one was overlooking a beautiful vineyard and mountains. So…
A Bunch of Protein-Packed Snack Ideas
When we first started P90X 2 1/2 months ago, I was determined to keep a clean diet that loosely followed each phase of the program. I usually eat pretty healthy meals, with some bad stuff here and there and everywhere, but something I’ve noticed that has really changed with my diet is snacking. Before, I…
A Few of My Favorite Things
I have picked up a horrible, horrible habit. Several times over the past two weeks, I haven’t started working out until after 8pm. That leaves me with going to bed within a half hour of working out. No bueno. (Though I’m usually dead, so I have no problem passing out.) Because of various reasons, I’ve…
Turkey Ranch Enchiladas
Happy Monday morning! I have a recipe to share with you guys today that is centered around what some might call the best condiment/dipping sauce/dressing ever: ranch. It’s a bit concerning how good ranch is on such a wide variety of foods — chicken, fries, salads, sandwiches, burgers, pizza, and so on. I’ve been experimenting…
Popchips Giveaway! {Closed}
I’ve got something real special for you guys today. Popchips – if you have not tasted the delicious, healthier chip alternative, then I declare it time to do so. I’m not usually a big fan of chips, which I’m actually very okay with, but I have a few exceptions – Popchips being one of them….
My Favorite Things + Super Sweaty Elliptical Workout
Matt and I have been suffering from some first world problems lately. Our cable has gone kaput, so we’re waiting on a cable guy to solve all our problems in life later today…or at least fix our cable. Last night, I put off my workout until about 8pm. I changed into my workout clothes at…
Damage Control After Horrible Holiday Eating + Interval Bike Workout
Good morning! I hope everyone enjoyed their 4th of July! We spent ours at a BBQ and saw some San Diego fireworks for the first time. (It was my third time here for the 4th, so I was determined to finally see some fireworks.) It was a gorgeous evening, and I’m now in recovery mode….
A Few of My Favorite Things
It’s here! The best month ever is here! July has always been a happy time for me because it’s my sister’s and my birthday month, but seeing as how it’s in the middle of the summer, there always seems to be exciting events happening as well. July 2014 is definitely consistent with this. It all…
