Hello, friends!

Whatcha been up to lately? Wanted to check in and let you know what I’ve been doing and loving lately. I *think* spring is here, in Calgary. But, I’m actually afraid to say that with much confidence because then it’ll probably snow tomorrow 😉

Here’s what’s been happening in my world!

1. Vegas! Went to Vegas for the first time and met up with some old and new friends from our hometown. SO. Fun.

2. New culinary adventures. I made poached eggs for the first time. They were delicious and need some practice 🙂 I followed these directions.

3. Make clean up time in the kitchen simpler. Been doing this regularly lately and it makes prepping meals, especially veggie chopping, way easier/tidier. Keep a bowl close by and throw your scraps in as you go. Toss all in the garbage/compost when you’re done.

4. River walks. I’ve been going on a bunch of great walks down by the river, here in Calgary. So, so beautiful.

5. Coffee protein shake. This is a creation done by my hubs, because alas, I don’t drink coffee. I often wish I did, especially because he LOVED this. Cold coffee + vanilla protein + raw honey + cream + ice.

6. Mackay’s ice cream in Cochrane, AB. Whoa, delish. Peanut butter fudge + mint chocolate chip.

7. Makeshift TRX incline rows/pullups. Take a sheet and loop it over top of a door, with the ends of the sheet hanging down. This is really opening up some new doors for my clients who train at home! On that note, make sure that door is tightly closed 🙂

8. Hand written cards. One of my fave things to do is write to my clients who I don’t get to see in-person. Helps close the distance 🙂

9. Kitty. It’s been over a year since we got our now 11-year old cat, Kitty. To say I wasn’t really excited to get her is an understatement and now I’m kinda obsessed with her. I don’t know how it happened, ha! I think it has something to do with the fact that she likes to relax as much as I do 🙂

That’s it for now! Let me know what’s been happening in your world.
