Busy...


Where has the time gone? I can hardly believe that it is May already. But do you know what May brings this year?


May brings these 4 beautiful men that I have waited oh so patiently for for a year.
I.Can't.Wait.
And if you don't know who these men are, we probably can't be friends anymore. Kinda serious about that. :)

But enough about them. ..
Wyatt and I went on our first family camping trip together with our good friends Tiffani and Chad this last weekend. We ventured south to Yuba lake (right as the snow started falling in Salt Lake) and had such a fun time. It was a little chilly at night, but Chad kept the fire super warm and we were the first to break in their new tent trailer (heater inclu
ded). Wyatt loved camping and won't stop talking about it. I actually heard him telling our neighbor that we were going camping tonight. Oh how I wish. I hadn't been camping for so long that I forgot just how much I love it. Thank you Tiff and Chad for having us tag along with you, we are so excited for this summer!
I will post pictures once I grab them from Tiff. Of course I couldn't find my camera ANYWHERE only to come home and find it sitting on top of my junk basket in the kitchen. Oh well right?

I have this new love....


I read about this granola here and have looked for it in every store that I've visited recently. Well the Fresh Market that I ALWAYS go to went out of business. Probably because the Wal-mart by my house turned into a Super Wal-mart (Rambling sorry). So the other day I ventured over to Smith's and what did I happen to find? Some Love Grown goodness! I have only tried the Raisin Almond Crunch so far and it is delicious. Add a little almond milk, let soak for about two minutes and you're golden. I actually just entered to win 3 bags of this on this blog tonight.
*Crossing my fingers*

If you come across some, buy it. It is a must try!

Gluten Free?

To be or not to be gluten free, that is the question. I have become a gym rat, I feel better and if I do say so myself starting to look better. However, I'm not here to brag about that. With this new found love of the gym and fitness I am starting to recognize what foods my body likes and what my body doesn't like. I love bread, my body does not. I love sweets and ice cream, my body does not. Headaches and stomach aches follow pretty quickly after eating these things, and in my mind it isn't really worth it. And I'm not going to fool myself and say that never again will I eat these things, but I will limit them to rare occasions.

I recently came across this blog. She has great recipes, tips and whatnot. And quite frankly it has inspired me. So we'll see how I do!

My favorite breakfast (Thanks Jenn T)

I have found the steel cut oats at Harmons.
I am sure they are available elsewhere, I just haven't looked.

Just a few blueberries are plenty.
Too many can overpower everything else.


Some people know my struggle with bananas, but I love them with my oats!

You boil 3 cups of water and 1 cup of the steel oats. It makes enough for me to have breakfast for 2 or 3 days, and on day 2 and 3 the oats aren't so chewy, but I like them chewy too.
I logged this meal today on my calorie tracker: 237 Calories

Anyone else gluten free? Or have any good recipes to share?
