Berry Crisp

August 4th, 2017Tina0 Comments

Which is better, a berry pie or a berry crisp? My parents came over for dinner on Saturday and I wanted to make a lovely summer dessert. I could have made blueberry or triple berry pie , because pies are yummy, but I wanted something easier and quicker. That’s where this berry crisp came in. This crisp is all that you would expect in great crisp. It has a crispy, sugary, buttery coating on top of a boat load of yummy fruit. I used an assortment of berries today because they’re in season (i.e. cheap and delicious). You can use …

Guys, I’ve been totally slacking on posts lately (if you hadn’t noticed). I’ve mentioned a few times recently that I’ve been focused on my workouts. I think I have a good routine going with those at this point. Now I figure it’s time that I buckle down and focus on eating healthier on a more regular basis (i.e. not just on Mondays). So many of my blog posts are about food, and in my attempts to be healthy mean that the recipes are a bit boring. Some aren’t even “real” recipes at all, but rather a bit of a write up …

What better way to celebrate Christmas in July but with cookies. The Hallmark channel is in full swing with showing their Christmas movies this week and you better believe that I’m watching as many of them as I can. It’s not like I’ve seen them all at least 7 times each or anything. 😉 It’s definitely getting me in the mood for the holidays. In fact, I almost bought marshmallows and hot cocoa. I ended up not buying them because I figured one cup would satisfy the nostalgic craving and then I’d mindlessly consume the rest of the bag of …

6 Ways to Stay Motivated to Workout

July 12th, 2017Tina0 Comments

I kind of, sort of, like to work out. That doesn’t sound convincing, as I write this. Let’s just say that I may not love every minute of actually working out, but I really love the way that I feel afterwards (mentally and physically). I’m usually good about working out, however, sometimes I lack interest. It happens to the best of us, right? 😉 I’m sure that I’m not alone so I thought that I’d share some of the ways that I stay motivated to workout. 6 Ways to Stay Motivated to Workout: Follow people on social media who inspire you.
