I can never decide what to eat.

Tonight is my night to cook dinner and I am having a terrible time of it deciding what to make. I have gotten so many good ideas off of Pinterest (definitely my favorite site of the moment) that I just can't seem to choose! I kind of want to go for something that's at least semi-healthy but still really yummy. So, I thought I'd post a couple of options for dinner and dessert, then later I'll post some pictures of what I ended up making. :)

Egg Drop Soup

Yummy Lemon Chicken

Veggie Lasagna Cups- Lasagna is my absolute favorite pasta...

And as for dessert...

Apple Crisp (not healthy but super delicious)

Millionaire's Shortbread (looks delicious)

So happy there is not snow on the ground today and the sun is shining!

halloween haunts.

Halloween is usually not one of my favorite holidays (I'm not a big fan of candy), but this weekend turned out to be pretty fun! Friday night was an crazy house party... definitely topped the same party my friends had last year. :) Sam, Heidi, and I went together, and we got to see and meet so many people with super fun costumes! I went as a "dark angel"... (someone thought it would be funny to comment that this wasn't really a costume, haha).  And even though Saturday did not go as originally planned, I still had an fantastic time downtown dressed as a "French maid", ending the night with some free bacon and pancakes. I forgot my camera Saturday , unfortunately, so no pictures from that night. :(

It was so so beautiful outside today that my sisters and I went to Standing Bear Lake to spend some time and take pictures. I can't believe it's already going to snow tomorrow. :( Althought that does mean I can break out my snow boots, which I love!


...and just a little something for laughs. :)

winter wish list.

It's been getting a lot colder lately, so of course I've been doing some winter shopping online. While I've been spending most of this time looking for the perfect New Year's dress (found it but completely unattainable, of course), I also have been looking for some winter staples that I would love to have. Winter clothing is one of the funnest things to shop for- coats, boots, knits, everything!

Also, I tried out my revised 100 workout that I posted yesterday...talk about killer! My body is so sore today I feel like I can barely move (but in a good way). The most I can manage today is just a 30 minute yoga video...maybe.

Time for what will be an epic Halloween weekend! What's your costume?! I need some ideas, the whole "making my own Halloween costume" turned out to be a little bit harder than I thought... :)

work it.

I've been trying to find some more stability in my workout routine lately, which has been working out okay so far with doing some dance sessions. But I recently discovered this little gem on Pinterest that I can't wait to try out! I'm posting both the original workout routine that I found -you've probably heard of it...called the 100 workout- and also my own revisions, which I think make it more fun and also just a better fit for me.

My revised work out would take longer than the original, so once I try it today I can post on how long it takes. The original takes about 30-45 minutes, depending on your pace.

I've got 10 weeks to get my butt in shape before my trip! :)
