For those following along with my recovery from IT Band Syndrome, I’m still seeing progress! The smart person that I am, I decided to go for a run during crazy weather we had here on Sunday. Thankfully, it was only drizzling and slightly windy, though it got much worse after I finished. First of all,…
Broiled Grapefruit with Brown Sugar
Make breakfast a little sweeter by sprinkling brown sugar on top of grapefruit halves and broiling until you have a bubbling and warm bowl of citrus! Sometimes, the simplest foods are the best foods. I’ve been meaning to broil grapefruit for awhile, but I very rarely buy them so it just hasn’t happened. I’ve done…
Strawberry Vanilla Almond Breakfast Quinoa
For a protein-packed breakfast that’s full of flavor, try this recipe for breakfast quinoa that combines fresh strawberries, warming vanilla, and crunchy almonds. One of the terms I use to describe myself is “food enthusiast,” and that’s because I love how food appeals to all the senses. Whether I’m cooking, eating, or just drooling over…
A Few of My Favorite Things
At the end of every day, I get an email from The Knot with a status on the countdown to our wedding. It’s both terrifying and exciting. The main aspect I dislike about wedding planning is having all these outstanding decisions that “don’t need to be made” yet, as vendors seem to love telling me….
How to Increase Running Mileage Safely
Since I’ve recently started seeing progress in my recovery from IT Band Syndrome, I figured now might be a good time to develop some sort of plan as I move forward with running. What got me into this whole mess originally was training for last year’s LA Marathon way too fast after about a month…
A Few of My Favorite Things
I would like to declare something on this fine Wednesday morning: I suck at working out after a full day of work and am going to start working out in the morning. Yesterday, I laid down for a second after work because, as I mentioned last week, adulting is hard. Then 30 minutes later, I…
Cheesy Bacon & Ham Quiche
For a flavorful and savory breakfast dish, try this cheesy bacon and ham quiche! By combining ingredients like cheddar, parmesan, bacon, and ham chunks into a pre-made pie crust, you’ve got an easy breakfast that is sure to impress. As of yesterday, I’m able to check off another dish from my to-make list! For awhile…
Lower Abs Workout
Comin’ at you with a burn-so-good core workout today! In my opinion, the most satisfying post-workout soreness is when your abs hurt. Why? Because I find it to be the most difficult area to work to the point of soreness. This might have something to do with my exercise form getting a bit “off” when…
A Few of My Favorite Things
Happy Wednesday! We’re halfway through the week, and I’m just over here thinking… Adulting is hard. Hope you’re surviving the week so far! Friday is almost here, and with it comes the freedom to do nothing…or I suppose all-the-things. Whatever you prefer. Right now, nothing is sounding pretty nice to me. Keep reading for my…
10 Commandments for the Injured Runner
Four physical therapy appointments down; six to go! Ever since my official IT Band Syndrome diagnosis, I’ve been going to PT about twice a week. At each visit, they’ve been having me stretch and gradually do more exercises. On my own time, I’ve been getting back into my workout schedule and doing my PT stretches…
Blueberry Coconut Overnight Oats
For a quick and healthy breakfast on-the-go, make a batch of these overnight (refrigerator) oats with blueberries, toasted coconut, and sliced almonds for a heavenly combination of fresh flavors! In my opinion, breakfast foods are good at all times of the day. Why? because they taste like perfection and are often really fast to make….
A Few of My Favorite Things
You know when you take time off from working out – due to injury, lack of motivation, or whatever — and the first day back makes you hella sore, despite not working out anywhere near the level as before? That was me after physical therapy this week. Like…how can a few sets of 10 squats…
Blueberry Muffins with Greek Yogurt
Blueberry Muffins made with Greek yogurt are a great way to add some flavor to your morning! Whether you eat one for breakfast or enjoy as a snack, these muffins are a healthier alternative to many other versions since they don’t have any butter or oil and use a limited amount of sugar. I’ve made…
My 2016 Resolutions
Congratulations! You survived another year! Whether 2015 was filled with mostly good or bad events, it’s now a chapter in the past, and we have a brand new shiny year to look forward to. Since this is day 1 of the new year, I’m sharing some resolutions I’m setting for myself. The term “New Year’s…
A Few of My Favorite Things
Happy New Year’s Eve Eve!!! Does everyone have crazy awesome party plans set up? We have a whole lot of nothing planned so far, so we’ll see what we end up doing. This is the first New Year’s Eve that I’ve been out in San Diego, which is a little sad since I can’t be…
