Frittatas are great for breakfast, lunch or dinner and they are so simple to make. You can serve this with a nice salad and you have got a complete meal. So with all that running today, I knew I would need a few power-snacks to get me through and grabbed a bag of 
Navitas Naturals Citrus Chia Superfood Power Snacks. If you like Larabars you are going to LOVE these little nuggets of joy. These little guys are good and I popped a couple in between the 7:15am and 9:00am classes and it was the perfect "pick-me-up." Wow, the day has just whizzed by. I ran a few errands which included buying some new gym pants. I don't like things that are super tight especially around my problem area (butt and thighs) but decided to embrace my body (warts and all) and got some running capris. I also thought these rather form-fitting pants would be a good motivator for me to stay out of the cookie jar:) Maybe I should just wear them around all day and before putting something in my mouth I should go and take a look in the mirror to make sure I really am "hungry! I will try all tactics:) With that I am off to get the kids and then we are headed to Math Club and Indoor Soccer. I hope everyone has a glorious rest of their day. |

Good Afternoon and Happy Hump Day!
I have been busy acclimating to my new job at Portland Bootcamp and love it! The above picture is the beautiful sunrise I saw at Mount Tabor with the running group from Portland Bootcamp. On Wednesday, the group meets at Mount Tabor (my favorite running spot:) and does a running workout. I did the 5:30am, 7:15am and 9:00am class and loved every minute of it. The first class was pitch dark and cold, the sun started peaking out at the 7:15am class and by 9:00am we were flooded with sunlight. Did I mention how much I loved class today?? I love to be outside and surprise myself by how important it is to get outside and smell the fresh air. I always come away full of gratitude.
Now on the food front, I am trying to clear out my fridge and pantry and ended up making a lovely Frittata last night with a potato crust and filled it with spinach, sun-dried tomatoes and feta cheese. Yum!
