Its Friday, I'm in love.




Hello lovelies! 

Its been a long week of work, fitness, late nite meals and spending some time with my loves Andrew, my cat Jewelz, and our dog Marley. This Friday I plan on taking a rest day before the onslaught of festivities planned for the weekend: birthday dinner with wine, a much needed girls nite out, a pool side BBQ, and of course a run or a workout. Can't wait to get back to Austin!

Make fitness a priority this weekend. 

I hope everyone has a lovely weekend planned to enjoy some downtime, get creative, connect with family, and of course stay committed to your fitness goals. I plan on catching a Spin class by one of my favorite Austin Golds Gym instructors then hitting up Wonderlust yoga for a much needed yoga sesh. Decide now how you'll fit fitness into your weekend. Pick out your gym gear, set a reminder on your phone, set a date with a friend and make fitness part of your weekend plan right now! 

Make the plan and let me know in the comments below what you will do to get your workout in this weekend. :)

Stay fit my friends!

Strawberry Fields Forever

Have you ever picked your own strawberries? As a kid growing up in Germany, we would take school trips to the strawberry fields and pick baskets of strawberries. There were rows and rows of big, red juicy strawberries ripe for the picking and eating. :) We'd fill up our little baskets till our fingers were stained pink. By the time we reached the end of the row, we'd have eaten almost as many berries as we picked and have to start again. Its been years since then and thankfully, my baby found a farm near the house where we could pick our own berries. How fun! I felt like a kid again, hunting for the juiciest berries and leaving the little ones to grow. Together we harvested a hardy basketful for dessert--perfect for a frozen yogurt topping. Do Tell...... Where do you pick your strawberries? What's your favorite way to eat strawberries?
