January Wrap-Up and Looking Ahead

I was reading Caroline’s blog this morning and cracking up over her “it will be christmas again soon” sentiment. January is coming to a close and well, here comes February.

So far this year I find myself every week checking in with my goals. The goals I set at the beginning of the year, and the [...]

Zenergy Winner + Exercise Thoughts

It’s 10pm, but I picked a name for the Zenergy Powerballs! I just scrolled through the comments with my eyes closed and pointed my finger to Jessica from http://shortystylee.wordpress.com/. Just send me an email at tokenfatgirl(at)gmail.com and I’ll have those send out to you! Thanks for your oatmeal topping comments, I forgot about adding cinnamon!

TFG: Cook Along: Bosnian Pita with Spinach Filling

A Clean Kitchen and Dining Space

I’ve been spending a lot of time doing some pre-spring cleaning and things are feeling really good in our home. Cleaning + daily exercise makes me feel like I’m on the right track. I started with the kitchen and dining room which needed a good scrub down and reorganization. Things got really out of control [...]

Back to The Grind

Hello Monday! I have to say this: I (with my husband) worked out six days last week and it was awesome. Most days we worked out in the morning and a couple of the days we worked out in the evening, but we did it! We were sore pretty much every single day. Insanity was [...]

Token Fat Girl Cook Along

I’ve been wanting to do some sort of a cook along for a very long time, and just never knew how to go about doing it. Basically, I think cooking is fun and hope you do too (at least a little!) and I would love to get in the kitchen with you guys a couple [...]
