WIAW: Veggie-Lite Edition

February 8, 2012

When attempting to emulate yesterday’s day of eats, one might be smart to take a Beano beforehand. Unless you body is accustomed to bean and cruciferous vegetable overload, yesterday’s food might create a boatload of tummy bubbles. It sounds cute when I say tummy bubbles, right? Forgive me, I have a child and use terms [...]

Shrimp Fried Quinoa

February 7, 2012

I read every single comment, clicked on a lot of links and feel prepared to fire a million questions at my doc today (he’s going to just love me- haha!). I’ll keep you updated on what I choose, because right [...]

Super Bowl & Birth Control

February 6, 2012

Good Monday morning! Is anyone dragging a bit after last night’s festivities? I’m actually feeling quite energetic despite a late bedtime and lots of goodies. We spent the evening in Charlotte at a friend’s party, where we took I forced everyone to take the obligatory girls picture! A girls picture with no sorority squat thrown [...]

Accountability Check In!

February 3, 2012

My mind is all over the place lately, but busy is good. Still, somehow January is done and here we are another month into 2012. In no time we’ll all be gushing over pumpkin muffins… OK, maybe I’m getting a bit ahead of myself, but the truth is 1/12 of the year is behind us [...]

What 4 Months of Being a Mom has Taught Me

February 2, 2012

This post is a bit late this morning because for some reason Hailey decided she wanted to say hello to me at 4:30am…and 5:00am. So once I got her back down, we both snoozed until 7:45am. It’s all gravy, though, it provided some inspiration for this morning’s post. When I was pregnant I loved imagining [...]

WIAW: Gorging on Goat Cheese & Painting with Wine

February 1, 2012

Do you know what happens when goat cheese is on sale? I end up having days like yesterday when I feel the need to incorporate it in almost everything I eat. I think one day I’ll actually be able to justify owning a goat because the cost would be lower… Breakfast Half of a Thomas’ [...]

Breakfast Round Up & SPA Giveaway

January 31, 2012

Do you ever get stuck in a food rut? I do. I’ll eat the same thing for a meal over and over again. I usually don’t mind it, but sometimes I’m just ready for something different. That’s when having a blog comes in handy. I’ll shift back through some of my favorites that I’ve eaten [...]

Weekly Meal Planning as a New Mom

January 30, 2012

I’ve been asked quite a few times how I manage to stick with eating healthy while being a new mom. My answer is easy… Preparation. Preparation. Preparation. During the week I scribble down recipe ideas and bookmark recipes I want to try while surfing the web, so when Sunday comes, I’m ready. Take yesterday for [...]

Happy Friday, friends! We made it to the weekend! ::throws confetti into the air:: Let’s get right to the good stuff… I’m loving… growing my own green onions in water! I sliced these up the other day as part of a meal, but left the ends bound together. Simply place them in water and watch [...]

Hi, My Name is Brittany and I…

January 26, 2012

haven’t worked out hard in one solid week. Last Thursday I pounded out over 4 miles on the dreadmill for the Couch to 10k program, then skipped home knowing that that was my final workout for the week (unless you count dancing on a booth). I’m saying ‘whew’ in the picture, but clearly it just [...]
