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.

Last night, I used virgin coconut oil to cook YUMMY chicken.

Yes! good ole fashion fried chicken.

The Way to a Southern Girl’s Heart

I’ve eaten 80% clean this week besides gobbling up the strawberry bread.  I have to say I rarely miss fried foods, but I can’t resist the smell and taste of fried chicken.

My first time cooking fried chicken and it was a success!

A 3 mile run courtesy of Missy, in the cold. I initially bundled up for a quick walk in the park, but she insisted on running.  I left the camera at home but here she is afterward relaxing on the couch.  She’s got a sheet, we let her sit on…too much dog hair!

Can you tell she is tired?

Have a great Weekend!

Any Super Bowl plans, who are you cheering for tomorrow?
