WOW, it has been a while since I have updated the site.  I have been consumed primarily with my more important responsibilities – such as taking care of my son 😉 . I have some news to report, I joined a gym!!  I finally took the plunge, and just got a Gold’s Gym membership.  This gym is not your ordinary gym though, they have just about everything – including a swimming pool where I can take the baby and a movie theatre I can bike or run or elliptical or sit or whatever inside of, etc etc etc.  The amenities are wonderful and I am very happy with my decision; don’t worry I will still post home work-outs and the various exercise classes I attend.  After this post I’m going to head over there and bike in the movie theatre, I’m so tired I can’t handle much stimulation from lights right now.

The next order of business, I have two updates on the food portion of this blog.  I finally tried NICE CREAM and IT WAS DIVINE.  I blended 3 frozen bananas in the food processor and topped with Enjoy Life chocolate chips.  I do have to report that this portion was very large, my husband and I shared, but you could easily make this for three people.  I thought the flavor was fantastic, the consistency was smooth and creamy – literally like banana gelato.  I’m a big fan of this treat!!!

 (instagram filter is on, so there is less rich banana yellow appearance)

This morning I finally indulged in a matcha green tea almond latte and again it was blissful.  I upped the matcha a bit, the recipe calls for 1/2 tsp, however, my bottle of matcha powder reads serving size as 1tsp – so I did just that!  Flavor was excellent, I even added more water to make it hotter longer and it did not lose its flavor one bit!

 (again, sorry for the instagram filter, lacking the rich green color of the latte)

Wish I could stay and type longer, but I have to quickly get in my workout before I eat dinner and head to bed… mommy life.  I hope everyone is staying warm and enjoying their new year’s resolutions 🙂 !

toodles,

peace. love. paleo.
