And he cooks too!


This morning I needed a extra boost of something good… so I decided to have some grass. Yum! Yum! Yum!

100_4794Some Berry Green SuperFood from Amazing Grass…

“Berry Green SuperFood is a delicious drink powder infused with acai and goji berries to help you achieve your 5 to 9 daily servings of fruits and vegetables.”

Shake-Shake-Shake and viola! Superfood for your morning!

Normally I’m not a big fan of acai berries, but this was awesome!

Rewind to Tuesday night…

my super sweet husband has been wanting to cook as of late and even found a recipe for lasagna. Yum!

He used a whole wheat pasta, ricotta, mozzarella, tomato & basil sauce and who knows what else. I was shooed out of the kitchen :) {he’s was acting like me}

Hubs made an appetizer since the lasagna would take a while to make. Tomato, mozzarella, balsamic & olive olive bruschetta…

Holy yumminess! You have NO idea… omg.

Dinner was READY and it looked amazing…

Hubs said it was about a 5 layer cheese lasagna. :)

Here’s my plate of goods…

Looks awesome huh!? I’m just glad I got my fitness on Tuesday and Wednesday to work that Italian off ;) so good though!

The other day I went to the gym, and completely forgot my ipod at home. Eek!! And to add frustration on to this failed move, the TV plug thingy for your headphones was totally dead, and I HATE to treadmill hop. Ugh. So I was proud that I pounded out a 30 minute cardio session on the treadmill and then another 15 minutes on the Bike. YEA! No music at all, just the retard gym-rats that are trying to pick up a date for the weekend. Eh, it’s entertaining nonetheless. :)

So tell me, do you have to work out to music or do you prefer nothing?

Good Deals Friday {Nike Edition} & Amazing Grass Smoothie


Hello all you fantastic people!!

Are you excited the weekend is here? Whoop! Sup-ah excited over here. Nothing huge planned, just some working around the house and biking with Hubs, looking forward to it though. :)

I wanted to share with you my first Smoothie I made with the Amazing Grass products…

I decided to try the Amazing Meal Chocolate Infusion product, it’s actually a Whole Foods Market exclusive. {nice!}

I got up way too early Thursday Morning and made my smoothie, I always put frozen bananas in the smoothie instead of ice…

Yep, I run cold water over the bananas to thaw them out just a little bit, in order to get the peel off.

Added the Amazing Grass mix, Almond Milk and a little Agave Nector…

My over-all verdict for this product…

SUPER GOOD! I thought it was very filling. I didn’t have anything else for breakfast but this smoothie and I made it all the way till lunch time without being starving {which I always am by then, even WITH a snack…}.

The TASTE was really good. For being a GREEN drink, it wasn’t bitter at all, didn’t have a funky after taste.

I must agree with the name, AMAZING MEAL delivered!
