Hello
Yesterday I was super excited to try this at work:

It boasts so many health benefits, I’d seen people rave about it on their blogs, and it’s so expensive – it has to be good. Unfortunately, it was a disaster. It was absolutely horrible! It tasted like I was drinking a mix between beer and wine – I couldn’t even finish it. I’m sorry to all you Kombucha lovers, it’s not for me! Is there any foods on the blog world that you had high expectations for but ended up failing you?
To be fair, I don’t like carbonation and it is carbonated so maybe that’s why it was so undrinkable. Or maybe I got a bad flavor. I usually like to give things another chance but when I looked at the label and saw this my mind changed.

For best results drink one bottle a day!? It’s just not possible. I think I’ll stick with water.
At work the unthinkable happened. I went to photog my lunch, and my camera broke! I couldn’t take a picture but I had an apple-feta-craisin-walnut salad with a blueberry Oikos on the side. Luckily the boyfriend has an extra camera I can use for now so I was able to continue my blogging duties at dinner
Dinner was last minute since I didn’t get home from work til 7:30. I made some quinoa since it’s one of the quickest cooking grains and then sauteed some veggies in a skillet with some premade ginger-sesame sauce that I bought at Shoprite.


I had a girls night with one of my friends last night because the boyfriend went to a Yankees game. It was a lot of fun, I forget how important it is to get in some girl time every once in a while! It’s so hard to pencil time in for work, the boyfriend, family, and friends sometimes.
This morning I woke up refreshed and decided to go on a run. At the last moment turning down my street I decided to go on a trail in the woods behind my house.

When I was younger I used to walk there ALL the time. Oddly enough, now that I’m older, I was actually a little wary of being back there alone. I ran in the woods for maybe 4 minutes and then sprinted outta there. I love the woods but I think I’ll need to find a running buddy before attempting to run in there again! Are you afraid to run certain places alone?
I spent the rest of my 40 minute run on the streets of my neighborhood, which is extremely hilly. I’ll be feeling it tomorrow! Then I finally got in some strength training. I haven’t done any in like 2 weeks since I’ve been working so much (I know, there should be no excuses!).
For breakfast I finished off my box of Barbara’s Shredded Oats with some flax, sliced bananas, and almond milk.

What? No pumpkin you say? I thought I’d give my poor Dad a break. I haven’t finished my can yet so my pumpkin week is not over yet!
