Just Workin’ On My Fitness

October 20, 2009

Wanna see my fancy office chair?

Oh, yes I did! As if they didn’t think I was strange enough…the whole healthy food eating, fermented tea drinking (mmm, Kombucha…I love you), yoga practicing, fitness ball sitting thing makes me quite a character at work. Dare to be different, my friends
 
 
I’m so glad I brought this [...]

Caffeine Fiend

October 19, 2009

The caffeine gods were NOT on my side today! After an early morning wake up call (6:00am to make the two hour drive back to Gainesville before a full day of class and meetings!), all I wanted when I got back was a hot cup of coffee to wake me right up. Ahh yes, coffee. [...]

Everything But Rice

October 15, 2009

Oh, I’m good. Really good.
 
Tonight I made something delicious in the rice cooker. Nope, not rice. A stir-fry, with a new ingredient:

I zapped the sweet potato (which was $0.45!) in the microwave while  I went to work on the veggies. I chopped up the chicken sausage first and let it sizzle for a bit [...]

Two Strike Monday

October 12, 2009

Monday had two strikes by 11:00am today.
Strike One: Left my yoga mat in Tampa. Not good.
Strike Two: There was no A/C when I got back to the sorority house this morning. Not good. Brings a whole new meaning to “the swamp.” Go Gators?
 
Ok, so these things are petty. But let’s just say Monday [...]

Lessons Learned

August 9, 2009

These yoga teacher training weekends are always exhausting. Not only are they physically demanding (think 8 hour days of practicing and moving constantly, and sitting on the floor for chunks of time that feel like days), but they are mentally exhausting as well.
This one was especially exhausting for me. After moving into the sorority house [...]

L.O.V.E

July 30, 2009

Ok, it’s official. I’m in love…

I’ve made it my mission to experiment with this little machine over the next week before I head back to school, and it has not let me down!
 
Last night’s attempt? Scrambled eggs!
 
After I plugged in my rice cooker and switched it to “cook”, I melted a bit of butter [...]

“Multi-tasking” is my middle name.

July 27, 2009

This morning I had the pleasure of taking one of my favorite yoga classes with Jenna, from Eat, Live,Run. It was a rather challenging class for me today, mostly because I’m a bit tired for some reason, but I am feeling much better after moving my body a bit and being in the company of [...]

The Magic of the Rice Cooker

July 26, 2009

As my Summer winds down, and the realization that I will be living dorm-style again in two short weeks sets back in, I am finding myself somewhat anxious.
 
Confession: I’m a bit of a food snob and that is just the problem. Cooking with high quality ingredients and healthy foods is important to me, and [...]

Spice Up Your Life

July 10, 2009

Today marks the start of another yoga teacher training weekend! These weekends really just creep up on me, and despite the long hours and days spent practicing and sitting on the floor at the studio, I love every minute. Being in the company of a loving and supportive group talking about yoga…what could be better? [...]
