Seeing the big picture this month – daily food AND fitness thanks to Jenn! <3
Breakfast: Coffee & super thick peanut butter cookie dough oats (extra yogurt, less milk)
Snacks & Lunch: Almonds in the morning, leftover veggie pasta from The Italian Oven for lunch, mini pretzels & hummus as I made dinner
Dinner: I had to make this Oh She Glows meal as soon as Angela posted it on Monday – brown rice cooked in coconut milk (I added toasted almonds instead of coconut flakes since Adam’s not a big fan) and tofu for me, chicken for the carivore, and glazed carrots inspired by Gina’s post (but with honey instead of brown sugar since I love our Polish honey).
And I totally cheated and used jarred salsa – TJ’s was out of pineapple, so I bought the peach instead. The flavors were great!
These frozen chicken strips looked absolutely awful, but Adam said they were okay. Quick and easy as a last resort!
Workout: 75 minutes of hot yoga – and I didn’t get dizzy this time, yay! I wore a workout skirt (it has pink shorts underneath), and a few people gave me a funny look when I walked in. Mind your own business people, there are shorts under there! 
You can’t tell in the photo, but I was soaked in sweat – such a tough workout. The instructor made us hold frog pose for at least 5 minutes. Ugh, hello tight hips.
Surprise! When I came home from yoga, we had a new family member on the dining room table!
Meet Rosey! Adam and I are hoping to get a dog eventually (when I get to work from home), but a fish will do for now. Nevermind the $200 vase (bridal shower gift) that he turned in to a fish bowl… sigh.
Speaking of dogs, my perfect pup turns 5 today – I hope I have time later to see Bella!
I used to buy her a new Coach collar every year on her birthday, but they stopped making them. Maybe we’ll need to upgrade to Gucci or Louis instead.
Workout skirts, yay or nay? Fish or dogs?
Why are people so nosey?! You shoulda flashed them the pink shorts – or maybe that would have given them the power lol.
How did I miss Angela’s brown rice recipe. I clearly have been slacking with my reading. It sounds so good!!
Love the new fish. We don’t have any pets, but I think a child will be enough for now haha

The fish is a test to see if we can handle a puppy, babies are way down the line!
Hi, Rosey! Looks like you’ve found a wonderful home! I used to do Bikram yoga everyday for about 7 months, and I amazingly never got dizzy!
I am team dogs all the way! Life wo Kona is unimaginable!
I’ve never worn a workout skirt, but I say YAY! I want one
Thanks for the link to the glazed carrots recipe. I LOVE glazed carrots.
Enjoy your Wednesday!
Butter and honey (or brown sugar) would be good on almost anything!
um, can I live in that vase? it’s gorgeous!
Leftovers are the best lunches sometimes! Glad to hear that you didn’t get dizzy from yoga!

Love the skirt on you, and like you said mind your own business people who question you on it!
I LOVE workout skirts….on other people. I think they’re so cute, but just not me
Super cute on you though!

I think workout skirts are fine as long as you can move in them, who cares what others think

I have always wanted to try a workout skirt, but just never purchased one. I think they are great, and as long as your comfortable and can move around easily in them… why not rock them?

HAHA! How cute that he put the little fish in such a quality vase! Expensive glass, Coach collars– Good thing Popcorn isn’t reading this post or else my budget would need to expand
Brittany @ Itty Bits of Balance recently posted..WIAW: Forgetful
I am actually thinking about getting a dog! I think I would kill a fish because I’d forget about it. LOL.
the veggie pasta looks so good. you are so healthy Claire. Today I was good for the most part, and then I had a Marbrouma for dessert.

Peanut butter cookie dough oatmeal?! I’m in! Also…dogs all the way. I love making mine homemade treats for his birthday (and lots of other days!)
I snack on almonds too. Rosey is lovely and she has a very nice bridal shower home. Happy 5th birthday to your dog xx

I love coconut rice, and have been meaning to try it with brown rice! I always add ginger and chilli to mine, though, I’m intrigued by the addition of sugar in this recipe. And yay for fancy honeys!

I was going to write a post on running skirts because I just purchased one! Yes, late on the skirt band wagon, but I really do love it! Definitely dogs, only because I have one! Fish are much less work though, haha go figure.

I’m used to “working out” in skirts from playing tennis when I was younger, but everyone else looked at me like I was nuts! Hope you like yours!
Love your coffee cup! Do you happen to remember where you got it?

Hi Theresa! It was a gift from my brother, but I’m pretty sure it’s from Kohl’s – they sell Food Network stuff!
