My goal is to use Sundays as my food prep time for the week ahead (when my kiddo is napping). I am going to plan ahead our dinner menu for the week and do grocery shopping once on the weekend. Here’s what I prep/cooked this past Sunday. Roasted veggies x 2 pans Cooked Eggplant […]
This weekend I was in search for a healthy snack that I could munch on throughout the week. I knew I was going to have a busy week, and I didn’t want to be tempted to always grab the leftover holiday treats & chocolates that are still everywhere at work. I also wanted to use […]
This past weekend, we headed to the beautiful Kern River area and set up tent at a campsite right next to the water. We went water rafting. We got thrown off our raft after we hit a rock and went down this rapid on my back. Ouch! It wouldn’t be camping without making any smores. […]
I am so excited for tomorrow. It’s race day. I have been looking forward to this weekend since September. This is not just any race weekend, it’s a DISNEY race weekend. It’s double the fun. We are heading to the race expo today at Downtown Disney. We’re picking up all our official race items (i.e. […]
Another fun weekend has past and another week has begun. I hit the gym this morning for a 30 minute HIIT workout on the treadmill. I want to incorporate more HIIT workouts again (like I did during the months leading up to the wedding). It really helped me tone up. I love doing HIIT workouts because I […]

When it’s raining and dreary outside, seeing your tropical vacation pictures help brighten things up. I wanted to do a twist on my What I Ate Wednesday posts. To continue my wedding recap, here is What-I-Ate wedding day edition. I got a lot of advice from people on what to eat on my wedding day. I […]
Before I started with the Foodbuzz Festival activities, I spent a day in Napa with my girlfriends. How did we get here? You can check it out on this post. Our day started out really great, free hot cup of coffee to wake us up before our walk. Jumping for joy in front of our […]
I mentioned last week that I was doing something very exciting this past weekend that was wedding related. I was very excited to shop for my wedding dress. My mom, my aunt and my girlfriend Sarah came with me to try on dresses. I should mention ahead of time that I will not be showing […]
This weekend I enjoyed myself being surrounded by wedding DIY projects and doing arts and crafts. I really love doing creative and hands-on projects like scrapbooking and other crafts. I love that the you can see the finish product in a matter of days. So you get to enjoy your labor as soon as you are done. […]
Today is one month before I turn the “Big 30” on April 26th. I am so excited to be turning 30 and be where I am in my life. I don’t really feel like I am 30 years old, I feel like I am 21 + 9 years of wisdom or experience. My life is […]
Another fun weekend spent on the hiking trails. Today, we had a bigger group that joined us on our hike. It was a lot of fun. Working those leg muscles to get on top of the hills. Thanks to my friend Irene and Amy for the pictures. I love doing fitness activities with a group […]
