Hi girls! Happy Monday :)
I was up bright and early to go babysit for a few hours. I will be doing these early morning jobs every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday for a while, which is fine by me…I need to make some dolla bills…especially after ordering some Amazing Grass!!! I finally gave up and ordered some…I can’t wait to try it out and review it!
After babysitting, I grabbed my yoga mat and did a mini yoga sesh from exercisetv.tv called A.M. Yoga. I really liked this one! I gotta give a shout-out to my girl, Jenny, because I found this awesome site through her blog. THANK YOU!! I am in love with this site now! :)
I have decided that I want to have more yoga in my life. It really makes me feel incredible every single time that I do it. I feel refreshed, calm, positive, and happy. I am slowly learning more poses but really am rather a yoga newbie. Any advice or suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
Do you do yoga? What is your favorite thing about it?
After some yoga, I was feeling pretty good and energized so I decided to hop on the treadmill (because it’s already SO hot outside!) and do some incline walking. It was a great little workout and I happily sang along with my Ipod the whole time :)
For breakfast I was craving a yogurt mess…and here is what I came up with:
- Greek yogurt
- grapes
- sliced bing cherries
- sliced figs
- kashi go lean crunch
- a few Quaker oatmeal squares
- a scoop of Naturally More
YUM!
I have to show you my new plate that I found yesterday at Walgreens while I was waiting to pick up some picture prints:
A flower plate!!! I think it is so adorable. The best part is that each petal is like an individual space, so I can fit my veggies, crackers, hummus, etc all on there. Love it!
I have also gotten around to eating a few new bars that I receive a while back in a bar swap with the lovely Meg!
This pic was taken with my phone, so it is a bit fuzzy…the bar was absolutely delicious! It is a Luna cookie and cream bar:
And a Think Thin Brownie Crunch:
I really enjoyed both of these bars. I am especially a huge fan of Think products and absolutely love the Think Thin creamy peanut butter flavor, so I was excited to try a new flavor. I really liked this brownie crunch one and it will definitely take care of any chocolate craving you may be having. ;) My heart is still with the creamy peanut butter flavor, but this one is a close 2nd.
Do you want to see what prints I was picking up at Walgreens??? Here is my newest decoration in my room:
These are pictures that I have taken on various trips and vacations. I really love it in my room…it takes me away on a mini vacation in my mind every time I look at it. :)
And now I off to have some lunch and then leave for my post-surgery appointment. I hope everything goes well!!
I will leave you this a Jaci picture…when I came home from babysitting, I went to the back yard to let Jaci inside. Apparently she has found a new hobby for digging in the garden. She tried not to act suspicious but there was no hiding it:
BUSTED…by all the dirt that was clung to her nose. Oh, Jaci…
I hope you all have a terrific Monday! :D
Love, Kristi

Hahaha I have a serious addiction to Quaker Oatmeal Squares...it's kind of sad...
ReplyDeleteYour doggie is so adorable!
That plate is ADORABLE! I want one! Haha! We don't have a Walgreens around here, unfortunately. It's so cute, and so is your lunch! Haha! Your breakfast looks awesome too, I love fresh cherries in the summertime. And Greek Yogs, of course. Beats oats on a hot day!
ReplyDeleteSo glad you're enjoying the bars! Cookies n Cream is one of my faves. And as for yoga - I actually do more pilates, but I really wanna get into yoga, I need to try it more often, especially after reading stuff like this about how much people like it!
Aww your dog looks SO innocent, EXCEPT that huge wad of dirt on her nose! Haha!
Wishing you a great post-surgery appointment, hope all goes well!
Love,
Meg

ReplyDeleteadorable plate!! I can't believe you got that from walgreens!
i am so with you - the Think Thin Peanut Butter bars are the best. I also really liked that luna flavor!
Beautiful vacay shots! :) Love those beach shots.
ReplyDeleteI agree, I need more yoga in my life, too! It'so calming. And it's like a detox.
My dog gets caught with a dirty nose all the time! She buries her toys to "hide" them but if you follow her she'll take you right to the burial spot - hah!
ReplyDeleteLOVE the flower plate, very cute!
Yay a new post! lol

ReplyDeleteI'm so glad you're enjoying yoga. I absolutely LOVE it and it's one of my favorite forms of exercise. I suggest trying yogadownload.com for great classes and they aren't horribly priced. the 20 minutes sessions are free :) Check it out!
