All Over

Where am I? What day is it? The last 48 hours have been insane. Since you last heard from me I have taught six yoga classes (at three different locations!), taught BodyPump, trained two clients and had a couple of appointments and meetings. Craziness but I completely love it.

I didn’t get a chance to post yesterday but I must tell you that I have read every single one of your comments on the giveaway post about the GOOD/GREAT/HAPPY things in your lives and oh my god…they have filled me with inspiration, hope and love. Some of your comments even brought tears to my eyes. I highly recommend bookmarking this post for the next time you find yourself in a funk or having a bad day. I guarantee your spirits will be lifted after reading through the comments.

The downside of being so busy is that I have neglected to take many photos. I do have two delicious breakfasts to share with you.

I had a quick break yesterday that allowed me to come home to eat and check on Sullie. I created an amazing new scrambled egg quesadilla combination for brunch – apricot preserves, brie, spinach and  a scrambled egg. Browned in a skillet with butter. So good. I could eat this every day.

The rest of my meals yesterday were consumed on the go. A Cliff Bar after getting some cardio and a shower in after teaching at Charlotte Athletic Club and then a veggie burger, salad and some fries at Lebowski’s (<– best bar food in Charlotte!) after teaching BodyPump.

Breakfast this morning was plain Greek yogurt with bananas, strawberries, granola, dried cranberries and Justin’s Maple Almond Butter.

Are there any breakfasts you’ve been loving lately? 

Lunch today was unpictured but I had a tuna melt with cheddar cheese on sourdough and then some coffee and bites of a giant, still warm cinnamon roll at Sunflour Bakery. My new favorite spot in Charlotte.

Okay, go time. I have an appointment at 4 and then I’m teaching again at 7:15. I am planning on squeezing in my own practice between the two and taking a hot class at Charlotte Yoga. I haven’t practiced since Friday and my body needs it. I’m getting a massage tomorrow…which will be oh so painful but it’s so necessary. I feel like one giant knot of tightness right now and can’t wait to have someone dig into it!

Remember, you have until midnight today (Wednesday) to enter the Ghandi Inspired Giveaway!

Have a wonderful day!

Breakfast + What I Bought at Trader Joe’s

Breakfast + What I Bought at Trader Joe’s

I am such a creature of habit when it comes to breakfast. 95% of the time I’m craving a breakfast that is on the sweet side. That mostly alternates between smoothies or yogurt bowls with overnight oats, chia pudding or oatmeal occasionally thrown in there. On the rare occasion I go savory – it’s scrambled [...]

Life Lately: Summer So Far

Life Lately: Summer So Far

I want to bottle up this summer and make it last forever (well, maybe minus the wildly hot and humid weather that makes running a big thumbs down). I mentioned this in my last post…but I am really enjoying the slower pace and the days that feel like they have more space. While I’m trying [...]

So Many Dinner Ideas

So Many Dinner Ideas

Happy Friday! I hope this post finds you well and enjoying the summer. We are in the dog days of it over here in Charlotte – the heat and humidity is off the charts – but it’s something I’ll embrace because I deeply appreciate the massive slow down that summer has brought. A lot of [...]

This was my third TransRockies event in 12 months (see also Colorado + Moab) and I’m here to tell you that they can do no wrong when it comes to race organization [...]

Life Lately: 8 Years Old, A New Piercing, Trail Training and More

Happy Memorial Day Weekend. It’s a very rainy one here in Charlotte and while I am a little bummed not to be spending the weekend in Florida with the fam or by the pool at our swim club (just opened for the season!), I’m also welcoming a slower pace and time at home. It’s been [...]
