Why Hello!

Well hello everyone! I have been missing for sometime now..AHH sorry sorry!

What have I been up to?
O you know normal run around like a crazy mom, wedding stuff for the best friend, job searching and cookin up some more tasty treats!

Wedding is over Check out the love birds!
 and also my beautiful lil flower girl!  who daddy forgot to bring her glasses...Whoops!

Speaking of glasses, lil love was told if she doesn't wear her glasses more she will need surgery to fix her lazy eye. Fast forward a month later, she wore them everyday and improved by over half to where we need to be! Yay for her, and we continue wearing and now patching to speed things up and hoping to be glasses free soon!
 
Super nice weather were staying busy for sure! Zoo trip kite flying making the laziest dog ever run!


BBQ's, crazy pinterest workouts and Oh so yummy food and treats to make! Here's a few for ya!

lil loves first Mile & Spaghetti squash

This whole Boston thing just hit right home and although I wasn't there or knew anyone personally there, Running at a race is a place I felt safe, and never thought I'd have to worry at.  Its like we cant even do anything we enjoy now a days and always have to be fearful of our lives :( Absolutely sad.

 ,...On a happy note My lil love and I went out to the trails a couple days ago when we finally got a break in this crazy Michigan weather, and ran a mile! That would be her first EVER mile she did without a stroller and on her own two feet the whole time lol!

GO AUSTYN! She was giggling the whole time from knowing she's beating me hehehehe! So to any crazy people thinking I make my three year old run, She wants to run, and LOVED IT! :)
But she really wanted to win a medal like her mommy, I can't wait until she runs her first race!


I also had my first experience with a spaghetti squash this week! spaghetti squash can be used in place of noodles and is a bit more crispy,   Make sure you season well with pepper or whatever else you may like!




 





Today I added shrimp, pepper and Cayenne to some left over squash noodles and a little bit of this, pretty good!


Also if you have MyFitnessPal.com I got a new one to keep with my RunningMILF theme, so that would be it, find/add me! runningMILF!


~Have you ever tried spaghetti squash?
~ If your a runnermilf, Do your kids like to run?

latest food addictions

 
 
 
 
 
well well... I've been craving veggie sushi rolls for  I couldn't tell you how long lol so I had to remake it somewhat with what I had, basically I think I like rice and avocado together? Odd yes! So a bit of rice with avocado, carrots, and cucumber on top...yummmmm.
 
Than that went to being addicted to Shrimp.  I've been making all kinds of shrimp over everything and anything I have.

Yup addicted! These are all so very easy to make, and can add anything you like and try different kinds, YUM!

Which also lead to a juicing addiction,

My mom gave me a juicer from seriously 1970, but hey gave it a shot and OH MY, yummy yummy fresh juice. It uses a lot of  veggies to make a little juice but oh its worth it.

My favorite is Cucumber, Celery, strawberry, carrot juice together, YUM!

I even tried Kale in it, but I don't think it juices any out of it and just clogs the machine lol!
