Wow another week has just flown by and it's already time for another WIAWRD post! I love these WIAWRD posts because I get to see how random my meals are sometimes. This week I notice a lot of quick thrown together items and a lot of leftovers last week. Busy weeks require cooking once and […]
Raise your hand if you have ever heard that nuts and avocados "make you fat." Raise your hand if you have heard recently that nuts and avocados are good for people on a diet. Chances are you raised your hand both times, I know I did. So what gives? Here is the skinny on […]
Hello hello! As you all know, last Friday I went to the Arizona Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics Annual meeting, joint sponsored by the Arizona Department of Health/WIC in Tucson, AZ. I left the house at about 5:45am and made it to Tucson by 7:15am, pretty good time. Registration went quickly and I got busy […]
So, I'm the dummy that already published this post trying to hit save. A year of blogging I guess it was bound to happen once! Happy weekend everyone, I seriously can't believe it is Sunday already! Do I say that every weekend, I think so. Oh well anyways this week I went to Trader Joe's […]
Yeah Happy Friday again! It seems like this week literally FLEW by. In the first Wedding Reception Recap I listed all our vendors and details, so you can find all those details there. Other wedding related posts include: how Paul injured himself trying to make our engagement a surprise, seen the emergency bridal kit that saved my […]
Hello out there, this is going to be a quick WIAWRD one today! I started to put together some collages of what I ate last week and realized there were some definite gaps in my photo taking so I switched back to daily. Let’s go for it! Last Wednesday started off with a giant green […]
Today is National Egg Day! I haven’t celebrated yet (I started today with a green smoothie, followed by a blender disaster) but I’m planning on digging into last night’s leftover quiche for lunch today. (Swirly Crustless Quiche from Practical Paleo.) I thought this would be a good day to lock down the latest research on […]
Happy Monday! I'm feeling re-charged and ready to tackle this week head on! This morning I headed to the gym around 4:30am and started with an upper body set that looked like this: - 15 upright rows + 15 overhead presses (3 rounds) - 15 lateral raises + 15 front raises (3 rounds) - 12 […]
Hi Y'all, happy Sunday! I hope your having a good one! I also hope you've been enjoying the wedding recaps this weekend, it's been fun finally getting them up. More to come next weekend for sure. In the mean time, here is the plan for this upcoming week. Grocery Shopping Costco I don't know about […]
Hi Friends, I hope your weekend is going well! I told you I’d be back for a reception recap (6 months later, better late than never right?). If you missed the last ones I wrote about how Paul injured himself trying to make our engagement a surprise, the emergency bridal kit that saved my life, the rehearsal, […]
Happy Friday! I can’t believe 6 months came and went on May 15th, and I still haven’t put up the full wedding recap. So many things to share such little time. So far you’ve read about how Paul injured himself trying to make our engagement a surprise, seen the emergency bridal kit that saved my […]
Happy Humpday! This morning started with a 30 minute immunity boost class and a bit of foam rolling. Followed by a huge green smoothie.... I can't believe it's already time for another WIAWRD edition, got to love the short work week!!!! For this weeks edition I opted for a look at random times throughout the week. […]
Hey friends, how did you hold up on your Tuesday return to work? For me I felt like it was a REALLY long day. It stinks how the long weekends are so nice but then the return back to work can be so much worse? We get in our relaxation vacation mode and never want […]
A little late on my meal planning this week, but in my mind I don't need a plan until the work week starts right? In the midst of furniture shopping and grilling we found time to make a quick Trader Joe's shopping trip for some essentials. Bigger containers of yogurt and bacon cheese for Mr. […]
Happy Memorial Day! Let me take a moment to say thank you to all those who have served in the armed forces to defend and protect the U.S. Not only them, but also their families which also make sacrifices daily so that we can sleep soundly. I have always been very proud to be able […]
Happy Friday! Today I thought I'd share with you one of the Shallal household favorite Friday traditions... Green Tea Lattes! I make these just about every Thursday night to have Friday morning as a little Friday treat. They are delicious and way cheaper than stopping at Starbucks. Mr. Hungry likes his latte a bit sweeter […]
One day closer to the three day weekend, home stretch people. Lindsay over at The Lean Green Bean is hosting a Pin It Party and I thought it would be fun to participate. The rules are to put together a post with the recipes you would love to see on Pinterest. Then you pin images from […]
Hello hello friends and happy humpday, the middle of the week doesn't feel so bad when you know a three day weekend is coming up right???? Given the crazy amount of green smoothies I had for dinner last week, I thought I would do a day recap for this WIAWRD edition, instead of the whole weeks meals like […]
Hi out there, happy Tuesday! Sorry about the recent silence in posts but I've been working hard re-organizing the blog to launch the new design you see today (if you are using a reader click over so you can check it out!) Truthfully, I did very minimal work compared to my awesome blog designer Julie […]
Wow, who is else is happy Monday is donzo? This girl definitely is! I REALLY wanted to work out when I finally got home, but alas it did not happen the way I wanted it to. I tried to work out but I was pretty sore in my lower back from this weekends swimming, running […]
