Rainy mornings call for me and Brooke to turn on our favorite sad Taylor Swift songs (Peter was our first choice yesterday) and belt them out in the car and tear up (okay, just me) because that is what the weather does to me… my mood is FULLY influenced by how much of the sun I see.
The weather also influenced my running group to push back the speed workout a day because the clouds forced us to run easy and talk about deep things.
But, like usual, my mood is even more influenced by action, and a run had me feeling much better.
We got creative at home yesterday.
The sun came out, which meant we went out to it.
Max still brings Beretta back to us if she gets away;)
Yesterday called for this easy artisan yeast bread that I saw at my friend’s house and had to try myself. Yum.
Along with this sweet potato soup with roasted cauliflower crumbles. It was really good but probably more of a once a year type of recipe.
As you know, I’ve complained about cooking for years, but I’ve recently really fallen in love with it because I realized something about myself… I HATE cooking when I feel rushed. If I take out the ‘rush’ side of it and prepare/cook more slowly (and give myself more time), then I actually really enjoy it. If I turn it into an experience rather than a checklist item, I love it so much more (and so does my family).
The hot tub happened after dinner, too.
Jess taught me the secret to mini eggs… Heat them in the microwave for 20 seconds. The inside was melty perfection while keeping the shell crunchy. Or eat them as is, because either way, we all deserve the joy of these mini eggs.
Still in my Christmas pajamas and using the Chirp Massager like it’s my job. This is for when you don’t even have the energy to foam roll.
Ready for the world’s silliest complaint?
There are SO many adorable leggings and a tank/bra sets… BUT, I want cute sets that include a long sleeve with shorts combo. I only wear leggings when it is really cold out, which means a tank isn’t warm enough for leggings conditions IMO, so I usually wear a long-sleeve shirt and a jacket with my leggings. BUT I wear shorts and a long-sleeve shirt for most of my runs in the colder months, and I want some cute sets in that combo.
A) This is the most ridiculous complaint you’ve ever read.
B) You can send me links to cute sets that fit my desires of a long sleeve shirt with shorts.
C) I should start to design some for runners.
D) Leggings and a tank are perfect for running outside, and I’m just the weirdo wearing shorts 11 months of the year.
