Black Bean and Ginger Pasta Fry + Spring Cleanse Plan
Yesterday was great. Kevin and I made pasta and watched movies all night long. Back to the grind today. I’m just about to head to the gym for 1hr swim + 40min spin + 6k run + 20min core work + a lot of snacking in between. There’s nothing better than snacking at the gym….
Goldilocks Scones
Happy Thursday everybody! What do you have planned today? On my to do list this morning: shoveling the driveway. Am I going to do it? Nah… I’m in denial over the snow we’ve been graciously given, so I think I’ll just ignore it and head to the gym instead. It’s great to hear that all…
Raw Cashew Lemon Drops + Cleansing
Spring has sprung! [says the girl with 6 inches of snow on her front lawn] The birds are chirping, the cows are mooing, and our bodies are saying “please, please cleanse me!” We’ve been hibernating in our houses, eating earthy vegetables, and surrounding our organs with extra TLC [it’s perfectly normal and expected to gain…
Coconut Curry Socca Crackers
I can’t believe a month has past since I started working with my running coach. Oh how time flies when you’re not having fun. I kid. Even though there are days where I feel like nothing has improved, deep down I know that I have made huge progress since starting this journey in August. haha…
Carrot Raisin Nut Muffins
My day off yesterday was awesome! Sometimes we all just need a day to lay low and recharge. I didn’t get to take pictures of the cow’s but the farmer said they’d be back out tomorrow so I’ll try again then [they were too far away from the fence!]. One of the activities I was…
Raw Blonde Nanaimo Bars
I can’t stop marveling at the weather change and how much sun I’ve been able to soak up since Sunday. I’ve even planned an outdoor long run for Saturday morning. I vote for no more snow until next winter, anyone with me? [It usually snows in May but I’m hopeful that this year will be…
Warm Cranberry Balsamic Pasta Salad
I got to catch up with Sona yesterday afternoon over a hot cup of tea at a Starbucks in Inglewood. The original plan was to hit up Wildernest Dream Cafe but they were closed. It’s been a year since I’ve heard of the place but have yet to visit. Eh, what’s another couple months? Sona…
Sweet Potato Carob Chip Cookies
Kevin and I watched TiMER [2009] yesterday. Leave it up to Kevin to come home with a movie that no one has heard of [or was I just left in the dark on this one?] Basically, the movie is about a society that builds a timing devise that will tell the user the exact time…
Sleepy Blueberry Muffin Smoothie
Happy Saturday! I’m just about to head to the gym for a 60 min swim + 45 min run + stretch/core. Woot! Tomorrow is my rest day. Words cannot express how giddy I am. Another thing that makes me equally as giddy? glass dharma straws. Gail over at glass dharma was kind enough to send…
No bake Apricot Nut Fifteens
For all you new readers out there, fifteens are my way of combating a hectic lifestyle. Each fifteens recipe can be made in under 5 minutes, frozen in under 5 minutes, and enjoyed in under 5 minutes. Hence the name fifteens. [I know, I’m so clever! :P] Fifteens give us the opportunity to take 15…
