Breathe With Me
Lunch yesterday was leftover veggie quinoa chili (with Greek yogurt and Cholula on top) and today I made Peanut Butter Runner’s Mexican quinoa. There’s a huge bag of quinoa that has been hanging out in the pantry forever now and I’ve hardly used it so I’ve been making up for lost time I guess. I’m a little quinoa’d out at the moment though.
Greg went grocery shopping the other night and came back with pineapple which is one of those things I should buy more often because it is delicious. Since I’ve started counting calories again, I am serious about my snacks in between meals. Pineapple, apple & peanut butter, oranges, banana & pb, and chips & salsa are my favorites right now.
I posted this on Instagram (let me know your username because I’d love to follow some of you guys!) the other day, so apologies if you’ve already seen it. I got my hair cut awhile back but have worn it up in a bun since because there’s just no time for styling right now. I finally straightened it one day and loved it. I need to do that more often. I bought this Infiniti Instyler by Conair (affiliate link) and it has drastically reduced the time it takes to straighten my hair, plus it gets it so smooth and shiny.
Also, it seems that Waves has inherited my major under eye bags. They really used to bug me when I was younger, but since there’s nothing I can really do about it them I have learned to live with them. There are more important things to worry about I suppose.
I have seriously been toying with the idea of getting certified to teach cycle classes. They are my favorite classes to take and I would love to be able to teach a couple of days a week. There’s a lot of different certifications out there, but most of them aren’t offered anywhere nearby so I need to look more into it. I definitely want to get one from a reputable place and learn all that I can.
I was looking around for more information and I found this play list and really liked it so I wanted to share. When “Breathe” by Prodigy popped up it took me back to the days on watching MTV late at night while making websites on Angelfire. Haha, those were good times. I still miss 120 Minutes—I loved that show.
Speaking of spin, my plan is to take an early morning class tomorrow. I’ve got all my things laid out and ready to go. I will not turn off my alarm tomorrow and go back to bed. It will feel great to get my workout over and done with first thing.
Have a wonderful Friday and weekend!

I’m a little older than you, but hopefully you remember Groove Armada? Superstylin’ and I See You Baby are oldies but goodies!!! Bad Girls by M.I.A is a new one that goes great with Jillian’s warm-ups!
Have a great workout tomorrow morning!
Oh yeah, I definitely remember them! I forgot all about those songs—they are good ones! I LOVE that MIA song so much. Have you listened to Kid Sister at all? I got into her after a spin instructor I had played a few of her songs. The workout was good and I managed to get to the gym at 6am. It was much better to get a workout in and over with before 7am. Have a great weekend!
I think the “under eye circle” on you and Waves are adorable – you both are gorgeous.
And you should definitely teach spin – you can do it!

Aw, thank you very much :] You are gorgeous yourself, lady!
I just added you on Instagram and love all your photos. Your blog is wonderful as well. I really liked the simple guide to eating post.
I hope your weekend was great and the upcoming week is the same!
