Shopping and Boba Tea

06/19/2010 | 14 comments

Awww, first quick post via Iphone! Gotta love the technology!

Today was an adventure trying out softball gloves. I’ve been practicing with Chris’ for the past week, but must give it back… were on the same team.

Kristin and Trinity went shopping with me but I didn’t commit to a glove…so many choices and fits.

I’ll just wait and borrow one for now.

Kristin and Trin introduced me to Boba Tea after shopping!

DELICIOUS!!

What’s Boba Tea??
A sweet preferably fruit tea containing small tapioca balls. Usually made with fruit or milk.

I had a “Mango” cold Boba tea!

Yum! Perfect Saturday Treat.

Anyone ever tried Boba Tea?? What’s your favorite flavor?

Chicago Here I Come

Happy to say I will be attending the 2nd annual Healthy Living Summit in August. I’ve never been to Chicago, so if anyone knows of places to eat and visit, please let me know.

I came home just in time to purchase my ticket Wednesday night after Zumba class and a 2 mile run.

Loving my new Yoga top, purchased for a measly $1.99 @ Old Navy. Woohoo gotta love that store; the tank kept me nice and cool during Zumba.

Freaking out…

I’ve been slacking in the running department lately…shame on me. I’m running this 5k with Kyra from A Foodie Gets Fit on Saturday for ”Run for Retrievers”; can’t wait to meet her in person. I’m focusing on fun rather than time, but I know I may change my mind at the last minute before the race begins.

Snack Attack.

Last night called for a late night smoothie since my body is craving fruits. Some weeks I go heavy on veggies but slack on fruit; not on purpose.

My smoothie contained:

1 cup strawberries
1 cup blueberries
1 cup almond milk
1 packet Amazing Grass Green Food

Happy Friday.

Good habits are forming with sticking to a schedule for work and life in general. I’m going strong with all my work outs and running. I pulled out my trusty crock pot to make dinner in advance last night. This way I have time for a work out, Old Navy stop and laundry. I’ve also decided to cook and bake more b/c I have been slacking in those categories.

Breakfast was another Amazing Grass smoothie on the go…

Thursday flew by fast and I’m so ready for Friday to do the same. I have plans to go out tomorrow night but I’d rather sit at home, sip wine and curl up with my new book. I’ll attempt those things for a couple hours after work, I have a birthday party to attend in Dallas. I’d like to run, but I’ve done two days and I’m not trying to kill myself….sore bum.

Recap of the day:

I chomped on a Odwalla bar for breakfast, that I had picked up from Sunday’s Blogger lunch.
