I was really excited to make a Green Monster smoothie for breakfast. I blended:
- 2 cups of spinach
- 1 cup of almond milk
- 1 frozen banana
- 1/2 cup of frozen berries
- 1 tablespoon of Dark Chocolate Dreams peanut butter
(Can you see almond milk leaking from my blender? Oops, forgot to tighten the plug. I’m sort of a disaster in the kitchen!)
Sorry for the blurry picture. But as you can see, my smoothie was less on the green side. It looked more like a shaker of mud. Looks can be deceiving because it tasted awesome. Come on, it had dark chocolate PB in it. How could it not taste great?!?!
Cole asked to see a picture of my cupcake soap. Super cute, but I’m still tempted to use it cuz it smells amazing. It’s made from the “Rosemary’s Baby” soap from the Stella Marie Soap Company.
I had thought about getting up to take the 6 am Body Pump class or the 7 am Fusion Strength class this morning since I had a meeting scheduled during my normal Thursday BP session. Instead I chose sleep! I decided I’d try to recreate Body Pump on my own.
But when I got to work, I found out the meeting was postponed so I’ll be going to Body Pump after all. I even found out early enough that I called my mom and convinced her to come. She’s starting a 12 class pass today so I’ll be working out with my mom many times over the next month.
Sugar coated almonds for my morning snack. Hopefully I ate enough to help me power through Body Pump.

One of my go to snacks used to be cinnamon sugar coated almonds. So good but I can’t seem to find them anymore. I would eat a handful before working out and it was great!

We actually made cupcake candles as a fundraiser for the student dietetic association at my undergrad program.

That’s the coolest bar of soap I’ve ever seen!! Way too pretty to use, but if it smells that delicious, I’d be tempted too
