Motivation Monday.

Truth. It’s wonderful to cherish our memories and dream of our futures, but we must remember to LIVE in the moment. At any given time, all we have is here and now. Be present in all you do, and live today. I hope y’all have a wonderful week!

Lemon Water.

Nearly every morning I start my day off with 2 hot beverages – green tea and coffee. However, this past spring, I decided to give up coffee for Lent. (Whhhhaaaat?!?) Yes, I really did. It was starting to feel like a bad habit, so Lent gave me a good reason to give it up. (I’ve since … More Lemon Water.

Motivation Monday.

Over the weekend, some of my closest friends helped me kick off my 30th birthday celebrations with a wine-tasting tour. Two of my girlfriends convinced me that their 30’s are hands down their best years yet. They actually have me a little excited for the big 3-0 this week. (Or maybe it was just the wine … More Motivation Monday.

Overnight Oats.

Last summer when I started training for a half marathon, I was looking for healthy meals and snacks to fuel my long runs. One breakfast option that I discovered was Overnight Oats. The recipe I found not only fueled my runs, but it was pretty darn tasty too. Since then, I’ve continued making these easy oats every … More Overnight Oats.

A little motivation for your Monday morning. I did not want to wake up this morning. It’s rainy and gloomy here – a perfect day to stay in bed. But I have lots to do, so I’m up and at ’em! Have a great week!

Fish Tacos.

Almost every day I struggle to come up with something good and healthy for dinner that I haven’t made a million times before. I really need to get better at planning my meals out ahead of time – some weeks I’m really good at planning, others not so much. And I’ll admit I’m not the greatest … More Fish Tacos.

Cherries.

I love all of the amazing fruits that we find this time of year. One that I’ve been eating like candy lately is cherries! If you follow me on instagram, you may have seen my cherry post not too long ago. In that post, I mentioned that cherries are great for post-workout recovery. Cherries (more … More Cherries.
