DietBet – Bet on yourself!

April 1, 2014

Hey everyone! I know some of you might still be seeing that beautiful white snow outside and may feel like it will be here FOREVER. But I promise(I hope) that Summer WILL come and along with Summer brings bathing suits, shorts, dresses etc. And I don’t know about any of you, but I have noticed that this horribly long winter has left not only that snow, but also a nice cushion around my body.  I am okay with that cushion right now(keeps me warm), but come Summer….I will wish it to be gone just like I wish that snow to be gone. I have started up my regular workout routine […]

Living Room Progression

March 7, 2014

TGIF! Yep, I couldn’t agree more 🙂 Today we saw SUNLIGHT. I know, may not sound like a big deal to you lucky people in the South…but it has been a very crummy, grey skied, cold winter for us. I was doing some running around tonight and people just looked happier. Crazy how we need sun for our souls. As many of you know we moved into our first house back in the end of October and I haven’t really shared too many photos. When we moved, we pretty much got rid of EVERYTHING. We wanted to start of fresh and new. It has been a process and boy has […]

What I Have Been Reading

March 6, 2014

I thought I would share something that is a large part of my life, reading. When I am not in the kitchen, I am usually reading on my Kindle. I have always read a lot, but since getting my Kindle as a Christmas gift a couple years ago, it has increased tenfold! Recently I joined a lovely book club full of some wonderful ladies, and the first book we chose to read was The Rosie Project by Graeme Simsion. It was a really cute book, I enjoyed it as a really light read. It revolves around a genetics professor and a total opposite barmaid named Rosie. If you’re looking for […]

A NEW Recipe! – Kale, Quinoa & Sweet Potato Salad

March 3, 2014

Check it out, A BRAND NEW RECIPE! Super excited to finally share something new with you guys. I am so grateful for all your support over the past while. I know I have been quite quiet lately, and I have a bunch reasons, but that is a chapter book of excuses that don’t need to be told(just because they’re boring). Let’s start fresh, and this salad is PERFECT for that! I know you have heard me complain, whine and cry about the horrible cold weather in Winnipeg(lately). I try not to complain too much because -HEY I am an adult, I can move. But here I am, still in Winterpeg. […]
