President's Day

Dear Presidents,
Thank you for being born and for giving me the day off work!  You have allowed me to watch The Jersey Shore girls get a makeover on Rachael Ray while I drink my homemade latte and eat my lumberjack breakfast.  You rule!
Love,
Me

OK- now that I got this off my chest, I'm gonna get to my updates!  First of all, I would like you to meet my new friends.  These boys will help me work on my fitness:

They are the Brooks Adrenaline GTS 10 and feel like little pillows of heaven on my feet.  I did the following workout in them and my feet and knees feel wonderful today, although my legs are a good sore:

• 30 mile treadmill intervals- 2 mile run and a little less than 1 mile of  incline walking
• 10 minutes stairmill
• Power kicks (lunge back, come up on one foot, kick out, then come back to a lunge)
• Bosu ball tricep dips
• Bosu ball planks
• Donkey kicks with a 3 pound weight
• Streeeeeetttttttttching

I was thrilled to get back to the gym after a 10-day hiatus!  It felt so good and just what I needed to feel better.

I just finished my breakfast of a homemade latte that my hubby helped me make:

OK, so I only steamed the milk.
I did make this 2-egg, broccoli, and spinach scramble:

My secret ingredient was this spice mix we picked up in New Orleans:

I originally picked it up for the name (because I'm very mature) but I am really enjoying it.  It is a white pepper blend and adds the perfect kick.  I do know that a little goes a long way, as I poured a hefty portion into my hubby's lunch the other day and it cleared his sinuses and made his face burn for a few hours!

I've gotta get dressed into big people clothes because I'm getting ready to start my day which may include a little shopping! 
See you all later!
