Since Monday’s post was strictly dedicated to roasted asparagus, let’s talk Halloween. I was excited to have TWO different costumes for the day – one for work, one for the evening. For the work costume competition, I was Carmen Sandiego (headed to Illinois because that was the only map in my car). And for the…
My Favorite Pumpkin Things
I figured I would dedicate today’s post to pumpkiny things. 1. Pinterest keeps showing me awesome pumpkin-related items/ideas, and 2. we carved pumpkins last weekend, so it just kind of works out. This past Sunday, we dedicated our evening to some Halloween festivities. We set up shop on the living room floor, turned on Hocus…
My Favorite Things + We’re Moving!
If you didn’t read the entire title to this post, then I have a surprise… …about 15 minutes north of where we are now! Woo!! We’re both stoked to move into a HOUSE from our tiny, one-bedroom apartment. Last night, we signed some papers to make things official, and starting November 15th-ish, we’ll be renting…
A Few of My Favorite Things
Once upon a time, I discovered that there was a craft store on my way home from work. I didn’t realize it was there until a few weeks ago when we needed tulle for our Color Run tutus. Now, I fear for my wallet. When I went there the first time, I walked around and…
A Few of My Favorite Things
So Matt really really really loves dogs. Like really. He always offers to dog sit coworkers’ dogs when they have an upcoming vacation of sorts, and someone finally took him up on it! Say hello to Sophie – the 13-year-old, deaf corgi that is just the best. We’ll be watching this lovely lady for the…
These Are a Few of My Favorite Things
Laziness has been getting the best of me lately. If you’ve looked at my workout log within the past couple weeks, you might think I’m talking about all the extra “rest days” I’m referring to. I wasn’t going to address that… What I’m talking about is cooking. Cooking dinner is a lot of effort, and…
My Favorite Fall Things
My favorite season has been spring for the longest time. Flowers begin to bloom; the days get warmer; and the horrific cold winter is coming to an end. Well move over, spring, I officially miss fall the most. Born and raised in Illinois, I had the pleasure of experiencing every season to, more or less,…
My Favorite Things
So it rained yesterday here in San Diego… I feel like every time it rains, it’s also still sunny. It’s quite confusing. But yay rainbows! After my horrible commute home after work, which was doubled thanks to flooding and traffic lights out, I came home to quite the interesting sight. Guess who didn’t shut their…
A Few of My Favorite Things
So apparently I have a 5k in four days… It’s a bit ridiculous how few miles I have run within the past couples months. I ran 3.5 miles on Saturday, and that was significant compared to all my other runs that have been on the treadmill. Because of hot yoga, I didn’t run as much…
My Favorite Things + Pushups & Pullups Workout
Some of the best workouts are the ones that don’t require any equipment. You can do them at home or even while traveling. Today’s workout is not one of those. If you’ve got the exercise equipment, then you might as well use it. After my P90X experience, I was left with some upper body definition…
My Favorite Things + Get Ripped Ab Circuit
Even though I got sick of doing the same ab workout three days a week for 10 weeks of P90X, I also liked how good of a workout it was. To mimic the awesomeness that is Ab Ripper X, I created the below ab circuit. It takes about 10 minutes to go through twice, and…
My Favorite Things + Upper Body Dumbbell Circuit
Now that P90X is over, I have the freedom to do whatever my heart desires for workouts. Not sure if I like this freedom yet. I spent awhile putting together an arm/back circuit and a core circuit last night, so now it’s time to share the goods! As we did the P90X workouts, I made…
A Few of My Favorite Things + Wedding Recap
This past weekend was filled with lots of wedding festivities. I threw a pretty low-key bachelorette party that included dinner out… And some girly fun back in the hotel room. (I made a stripper ken cake to spice things up a little bit – “Andrea’s last fling before the ring.”) Side note: a pack of…
A Few of My Favorite Things
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…
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,…
