Weekly Love
Just a few things I’m loving this week…
Chocolate tofu pie! This is the easiest recipe ever and I used to make it all the time, but for some reason I stopped. Sarah at Desirous of Everything asked me to do a guest post and I knew this recipe would be perfect! You’ll have to head on over to her blog to get the recipe!
Eating outside! The weather has been nice enough to sit outside and eat my lunch. It’s not too hot out and even though it has been raining off and on there is a little gazebo outside my office building where I can take my lunch to. It’s so nice to get some fresh air and out of the office.
Tofu tikka masala! I got this recipe from Priyanka at The Healthy Diary and it is delicious! I used Twin Oaks extra firm tofu and it worked perfectly in this dish. Sometimes when I buy other brands they fall apart even though they are labeled extra firm, but Twin Oaks is awesome and won’t crumble on ya.
Other things that made my week » Catching up on tv shows which include 16 & Pregnant, Secret Life of the American Teenager & Ice Loves Coco. I like ‘em trashy. Does anyone else think Coco is absolutely adorable though? I love her! /// almond butter & blackberry jam in a rolled up wheat tortilla /// long walks while it’s still light out at 9pm /// iced jasmine green tea /// Subway finally getting avocado! /// all my pants being loose (good & bad since I don’t like shopping much) /// finally cleaning the garage out /// yogurt with hemp seed granola
What are you loving this week?
Thanksgiving
We went to dinner at my Dad’s house & my stepmom always sets up the table so nice and cute! We had a lot of fun stuffing our faces and then relaxing with some wine.
The blueberry pie I bought was amazing. I’d never had it before and I loved it! I also had a tiny slice of pumpkin pie and vanilla ice cream :]
I tried to take a photo of my outfit and this is how it turned out. I thought it was pretty neat looking. I’m still loving these new boots and I want to wear them all the time!
Pepper was worn out from all the excitement and slept like this for forever. We were worried that all the blood was going to his head so we finally flipped him over and he was not happy. Haha, he’s too cute!
I hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving!
Blueberries, Boots and Blue Hair
How good does this blueberry pie look?! I got off early form work today (woohoo!) and drove straight to Earth Fare to pick up a pie to take to Greg’s sister’s dinner tomorrow. I am so excited to eat all day long! My mom & I are doing a 5am body pump class tomorrow morning so that will prepare me to eat and eat and eat :]
Last night at the gym I did 45 minutes of intervals on the cross trainer. When the resistance went from 25 to 40, I would really push with all I had to keep my feet moving at the same pace. I was drenched in sweat and my heart rate was insane. I’m definitely feeling it in my legs today so I hope body pump doesn’t kill me tomorrow.
To match the pie, I now have blue hair! Haha, I look so annoyed in that photo, but I promise the sun was just in my eyes. It is super bright and so fun.. the only problem is I am staining everything blue. Oops!
I ordered a pair of boots from Zappos the other day and was so happy when I saw the huge box on my doorstep yesterday! This is my first pair of knee high boots and I think they are so perfect for fall/winter. It took me forever to decide since there aren’t too many non-leather choices out there. These are the Madden Girl Zoiiee’s and I love them! I took the advice of the reviews and ordered a half size down and I’m so glad I did. There’s still quite a bit of room but if I wear thick tights or socks it isn’t a problem. Now to just work on replacing my wardrobe since things are starting to be a bit too big.. yay!
I am now getting ready to head to my Mom’s to celebrate Thanksgiving tonight. She always has to work on holidays so we celebrate a day in advance usually. She’s making veggie chili and I can’t wait because it’s so good. I hope you all have a wonderful Thanksgiving tomorrow!
