Just Flip It

by Nicci on 08/31/2011

Good Times at the Healthy Living Summit with blends, Krista and Shannon.

Frito-Lay had a great display table with information on how their products are cooked in healthier oils and seasoned.

How about a GIANT spatula for attendees!

 

We ROCKED that spatula!

Fitness Recap:

  • Monday- Was a good weight lifting day at Fit Camp. My arms still feel like jello.
  • Tuesday- No packing has occurred yet…I keep looking at things around the apartment; hoping all items will magically appear into boxes. Fixing this fantasy, of boxes magically appearing full, is on tonight’s agenda!
  • Wednesday- Today, I’m nervous about attending my workout because our trainer mentioned we will be trying something new in the gym. As long as it doesn’t hurt me…I’m okay with a new fitness challenge, especially one that will make me stronger.
  •  

    Do you push yourself in workouts, liking new challenges or do you stick with the same exercise routine?

    When  is the last time you posed with giant silverware? ;)

    A Taste of Saturday

    by Nicci on 07/10/2011

    I had a great time getting together with Kari, one of my best friends, for lunch.  We decided on Chopsticks to catch up on what’s going on in each other’s lives.

    I was feeling sushi, so I started with an eel roll.

    My all time favorite roll to chow down on.

    Kari decided on General Tao’s Chicken and rice.

    I think it was a good choice!

    I’m also sure this is our favorite restaurant in town, we always pick Chopsticks.

    More sushi  (volcano roll)

    010

    Usually the volcano rolls are delicious, but I wasn’t feeling this one.  I think it was made in a hurry and too much sauce was added, on top.

    So I ate a few rolls and left the rest.

    Later that evening, Chris and I headed out to ‘’Taste of Dallas’’.  It was too hot outside, so we lingered around the inside booth areas to cool off. 

    I had planned on checking out more booths to sample food, but the inside area with the jewelry shops had most of my attention.

    We did check out Trailer Cakes, which was a really cute, local bakery selling mini-cupcakes.

    I tried their popular PB&J cupcake, which the booth lady stated was awesome… and of course it was DELICIOUS!!

    Then it was Spazmatic time!

    I had to capture them singing Vanilla Ice, but ‘’Jessie’s Girl’’ is my favorite song they sing.

     

     

    Definitely a fun weekend!

    Having fun in Houston!

    Chris and I took a short road trip to watch the Gold Cup 2011, U.S. Men vs. Panama yesterday evening!

    U.S won and afterwards we watched Mexico beat Honduras… huge crowds came out for this fun event!

    Chris sporting my crazy American glasses!

    Although were leaving tomorrow, it’s been fun. We discovered a new burger place down here…later found out there is actually one back home & took a tour of Houston’s NASA Space Center.

    I’ll blog about today’s events later this week.
