Thank you to all of you for your kind words of support and encouragement after my race last week! I really appreciate it!
I took a bit of a vacation last weekend. I snuck away to spend a day with my parents and didn’t tell a soul. The mom therapy was needed!
We had such a great time together, as always. We strolled the market…
registered at Crate and Barrel together (only 134 days until my wedding!)…and saw The Great Gatsby! I loved it! Have you seen it yet?
I loaded up my pups and headed home to spend the rest of my Memorial Day weekend with my fiance. We went house hunting…I made a special pasta dish for him with the fresh pasta I bought from the market with my mom…
and I made cashew milk!
My favorite workout from this week: Pulling out a Jillian Michaels DVD and letting her kick my booty! I ‘ve missed you Jill!
Favorite Snackity Snack: Blue Diamond Caramel Macchiato Almonds and Trader Joe’s dark chocolate nibs*!
*I purchased these products with my own pennies and these opinions are my own. I am not sponsored by any of these companies (call me!)
Fun new Fitness Find:
LaraBar has started making a high-protein version of their pars, called ALT bars*! The protein is pea protein and there is 10g per bar! The new flavors are: Cinnamon Apple Crisp, Lemon Pound Cake, Peanut Butter Cookie, and Pumpkin Pie. So far, I’ve only tried the Cinnamon Apple Crisp and it was really yummy! I definitely would hunt it down when I’m in need of a new protein bar!
*LaraBar sent me these bars to try as I please. I was not monetarily compensated for these words nor was I required to write them. I get bar, I eat bar, bar tastes good, I brag on bar, that is all and it’s all mine.
This Week’s Treats:
Carrot Cake Oatcakes (with a Cream Cheese Drizzle):
And that’s it! How was your long weekend? What was your favorite workout from the week?
If you write a blog, do you write the same professional line over and over for your little ad clarifications under products that you have or have not received from companies? Or do you write terribly unprofessional things like I do?
I love those nibs! And then I keep the tin as a carrying case in my purse for dark chocolate chips (you know, when there’s a chocolate emergency). 🙂

Ahh I need to see the Great Gatsby still! I can’t wait to see it!
And I LOVE Farmer’s Markets but unfortunately everything at ours is super expensive cause I live in the city. Meh 🙁
