  • A Little About Me…

    My name is Caitlin, and I'm 26 years old. I love running, delicious food, writing, friends, traveling, cold beer, and the great outdoors.

    This blog documents my food and fitness habits as I strive to find balance in my busy life. In September 2009, I resigned from my corporate job to freelance and write a book based on my other blog. I live in Charlotte, North Carolina with my wonderful Husband (who is a Doctor of Oriental Medicine) and two dogs, Maggie and James.

Friday Productiveness

You know you are getting old when you stay in on a Friday night to work.  :)   But it’s fun working (writing), so I don’t really mind.

 

My tummy is terribly off.  I think I have a stomach virus, actually — I REALLY hope it goes away before my race on Sunday!

 

After my run, I made an Amazing Grass smoothie:

The smoothie contained:

 

  • 1 scoop of Chocolate Amazing Grass
  • 1 banana
  • 1 cup unsweet almond breeze
  • Ice

 

And around 6, I made a platter of treats:

With included two crackers with hummus and celery:

I wrote for five hours.  Maggie chilled next to me the entire time (she did this on her own — I looked over and cracked up!)…

And I just ate polenta, kidney beans, and cauliflower with broc.  Very delicious!

I’m going to drive the Husband and my brother in law downtown so they can go clubbing (!!) and then I’m going to bed!  LOL

 

Good night!

    Sometimes it's so nice to have a productive and non-crazy Friday night…I'm having one too!

    I actually kind of love getting an awesome work out in on Fridays, doing some cleaning and chores and just relaxing and having me time. I save my crazy time (if there is any!) for saturdays!

    Have a great weekend!

    That polenta looks a-mazing. I just cooked my first batch the other night — but yours looks waaay more appetizing. How'd you prep it?
