French Inspired Date Night (frugalized)

What another wonderful weekend! Saturday was a terrific day that started with a yoga heart opening workshop, led to some errands, a birthday lunch with my sister-in-law, and some good old fashioned relaxation with the husband. That night we wanted to do something fun, but we didn’t want to do anything out since we just…

Feast of Friends

What a feast! A feast of delicious food and a feast of friends! My heart is full. Gina and Katie were in town Dance Tranceing it up (oh yes, it’s a verb!) and I was more than happy to accommodate them for the night! Poor Ross – estrogen fest for him, but a perfect  girly-…

Arugula & Feta: Two Ways

Happy MLK Day! If you’ve been following my blog for any length of time, you’ll know that I only very recently came into a job (which I’m loving by the way!). Which is why Ross and I thought it was rather ironic this morning when I was leaving to go to work and he was…

Grilled Portabella Pumpernickle Panini

After a fun day of traveling around Lakeland running errands (Target has an additional 30% off all the clearance right now folks, head on out there!) hubs and I made it back to our town to go grocery shopping. We hit up two different grocery stores on the way to make the most of the…

New Find, News, and Life

I finally tried Spaghetti Squash! It was quite good! I split the squash in half and seeded it. Then I poked a few holes in the skin and covered the open halves with a damp paper towel and microwaved on high for 7 minutes. Then when it was done I just used a fork to…

TV Dinner…not really :)

Ok, first of all, hello dramatic tv moments! Show? Biggest Loser. One word: Bob. My .02? Joelle seriously just needed to shut up and do it. 30 seconds. That is absolutely nothing, especially when everyone else is doing it, and Dan on Jillian’s team was just running at 7mph. Then we flip over to American…

Weekend Recap

I think I need more creative post titles. Oh well, another day. Yesterday ended up being pretty fun! My friend Tressie graduated from a nearby college, so we met up with her, her husband and family for a celebratory lunch at Olive Garden. It was so good to see them! As soon as her semester…

Saturday Smoothie

Mmm, the hubs and I enjoyed the laziest morning. I love not being in a rush to get going on the day, and just being able to start the day slow and relaxed. Thanks for the comments on the post yesterday! It looks like most people go back and forth between working out by themselves…

Homemade Tortillas!!

Hey everyone! I hope everyone’s had a great first half of the week! It’s only downhill from here ’til the weekend! I don’t have any pictures from any of my eats today up until dinner. My day started off busy and I was on the road a good portion of the day. Breakfast was oatmeal…
