After 30 years of standing at the sidelines of my own life, I am ready to "Pick Me!" first. Follow me on my journey of finding health and happiness in my every day...

Smoothie on the Rocks ;)
Smoothie on the Rocks!
The sun finally came out! Yay! I was able to bring my new camera out of the safety of the house, and my car to take some photos.
View from by my Mom's street
Trying out the zoom 
The first land mass is by where we ate lunch the other day...
I spent most of the day sadly inside waiting for my sister to come over so we could go out and explore… I should have phoned her when she didn’t show up, as she fell asleep!! Err…
Supper was some Thai Halibut, Bruchetta mixture with some of the organic tortillas from Costco, and some greek veggie pizza.
My Uncle makes a mean Thai flavoured Halibut, I am going to have to get the recipe!! (Don’t worry I will share it with you…)
Tonights smorgasborg of food was due to the fact my cousin who is a hairstylist for Aveda was doing hair at my Mom’s… Making everyone Pretty for the wedding on the weekend
Thing 2 getting his hair done...
Funny… he doesn’t sit that still for me, OR that quiet!
Tonight is Sister Night!! I am off to go spend the night at my sister’s.
We got rid of the hubby and kids, and her BF, Whoo Hoo! I’m hoping now that we have some gum-tex we will get the fondant flower mess straightened out, and finally get some progress on this cake. Hopefully the lack of rain finally will help the crazy humidity here! (side note: my dry skin has never looked this healthy!)
Stylists, Smoothies and Starbucks, Oh My!
- So True, yet feels like a disclaimer…
Yay, I survived the Hairdresser! It actually went really well… thankfully! After the last appointment with her replacement, and subsequent appointment to try and fix the mess with another one at the same salon, she still saw the awful cut. At least I know it wasn’t in my head!
So I am sporting some non-spotted highlights, and a reddish base again, whoo hoo! …and significantly less split ends.
Lunch yesterday was a smoothie…
- PB Cup w/Spinach and a Peach on the road
Followed by a Starbucks supper…
- Bistro Box: Chicken, veggies, pita and Hummus
I may or may not have dipped a couple of Hubby’s fries into the hummus 
…and dessert
- Mocha Coconut Light Frapp, with Coconut topping
Please excuse the oh, so wonderful Blackberry photos… and the lack of the hair photo… forgot yesterday, and that will have to wait till I put on my face, and restyle my hair again… curly hair straightened does not sleep well.
What is your worst Hairdressing experience?
What is your favourite eat in the car “fast food” ?
Coffee and Oats…
Aquafit last night was cancelled due to weather 
Which means I better get my butt in gear at home, and bring a DVD with me when we go to the wedding as I am feeling BLAH! After the cancelled aquafit disappointment and procrastinating about packing, I stayed up WAY too late! I needed COFFEE this morning!!
Donut Shop k-cup
Protein Oats were my eats of choice this morning… I honestly didn’t know what to have. I’m not that hungry, and I didn’t want to wake up my family with the hum of the vitamix…
All the mix-ins
In the bowl:
- Quaker 100% Whole Grain Oats packet
- 1 scoop Chocolate Protein powder
- 1 t Chia Seeds
- Boiled Water
I put it all in a bowl, and microwaved it for an additional 30 seconds so it had the wonderful souffle like texture. Topped it with some Coco-Loco, and a tiny bit of almond butter and dove right in…. I guess I was hungrier than I thought?
I’m off to the hairdresser today… hopefully for just a trim, and colour. I had a not so great experience there this spring when my Hairdresser was off work for a couple of months, and I used her replacement. I have been putting off an appointment as long as I can, as leopard print dye job is not what I want to be sporting at my cousin’s wedding next week… will keep you updated
Warm and Yummy!
