Hoooooray for Fridays! In anticipation of the weekend, I thought I’d share some bits and pieces of things in my life that I’m absolutely loving lately. These things never fail to bring a smile to face.
Cat bearding. Seriously. If you don’t know what I’m talking about, stop whatever you’re doing and search #catbeard on Instagram. It’s so wrong in so many ways but I just die laughing.
Gymboss. I have been wanting an interval timer forever and finally have one! I especially like that it looks & feels like a ’90s pager. Every time it vibrates and beeps I’m temped to make a huge scene in the gym like I just got an emergency page. If only I had the stones to actually do it…. Be on the lookout for a fun Gymboss giveaway I have coming your way.
Vega Energizing Smoothie. This made my favorites list for two reasons. 1.) My breakfast isn’t complete without it, and 2.) I’m lazy and this is a great way to get nutrition in a glass. Breakfast is a meal that I really don’t like spending much time on. With this shake (it’s not smoothie in my book) I get to start my day with two servings of veggies, protein, fiber and Omega-3. Plus it’s gluten/dairy free. I like a bit more protein so I still eat either eggs or turkey sausage with it.

Vega Energizing Smoothie. I’ve gone through 3 1/2 bags of this in 8 weeks…
Freshly cut grass. Did I just admit to that? Whatever. I don’t care if you know I’m weird like that. I love it. It instantly reminds me of summer and floods me with memories from growing up. I don’t know why, but I have Minnesota (where I spent a lot of my childhood) attached to that smell.
The beach. I guess because I live on the coast most summers I don’t have much of an interest in going to the beach. I mean I run it ALL the time but never just go and hangout. However, I’ve already enjoyed several days this year of lounging around with my Nook and I plan on enjoying several more.
Woodchuck Hard Cider. No, this isn’t real food and yes, I realize that this is absolutely nutrient void. I don’t drink Woodchuck Hard Cider very often but when I do, one word: YUM! This gluten free cider is the perfect compliment to my hubby’s fantabulous grilled steaks. I recently discovered the summer version which has just a hint of blueberry. Plus it’s paleo approved which makes me feel a bit less badly about imbibing it.
Question: What are you loving lately?
