Bites of My

I’ve started reading White Fragility, I’ve attended a protest, I’ve signed a few petitions, followed black influencers (some favorites include Oh Happy Dani and Anna Mae Groves), but I know it is not enough. How is everyone doing?

-Daily 3:00pm snack of GG pizzas are on a serious rotation around here. I’ve been reading a lot about fiber and how beneficial it can be in our diet. GG crackers are very bland fiber-filled crackers, but once they are topped with marinara, almond milk cheese, and pepperoni, they are basically pizza Lunchables.
-I wish you could see the full glamour that is this WFH outfit, but what you are missing with this midi dress, cardigan situation is my running shoes to top it off. G-L-A-M-O-R-O-U-S.
-Protein pancakes are easily one of my favorite breakfasts!
-An easy and cheap Trader Joe’s cheeseboard using a few of my staples: Spanish cheese tapas sampler, crispbreads, pepperoni, with some berries and then basil from my porch herbs!
-A baby strawberry sheet cake for a little birthday celebration for my bestie girl Jordan!
-Espresso Martinis for Tini Tuesday!! Recipe getting shared Thursday!
-I attended a Black Lives Matter protest last week. The protest was based on prayer and was led by a local church group. We sang hymns and attendees gave their testimony. We then joined in on a march from City Hall through downtown. It was slightly out of my comfort zone but encouraging to see so many people gathered together to fight for a change.
-Sharing the recipe for this salad tomorrow because I cant.stop.making.it.
-This picture doesn’t do it justice, but I’ve been bitten by the @isaacboots bug and I can’t get enough. I found him from doing Obe workouts and now I strictly do only his sculpt classes. however, he also does an IG live that is 50 minutes everyday and I’ve been tuning in when time permits. They are killer but SO fun.

Bites of My Life

The pictures below don’t represent the state of my heart or our country. While last week was a really great week, it was paralleled by a very sad week, weekend, and coming days. I don’t want to be naive, but I’m hopeful of the change stirring in myself and my peers. It’s hard and uncomfortable to put thoughts to words, but I’m reflecting and learning, and wanting to change alongside all of us who need this change of heart.
