CEimB: NY Breakfast

This week's recipe was tettering on the edge of being the first CEimB I opted out of since joining our group. I don't like smoked salmon. The texture just doesn't agree with my tongue receptors. However, in the spirit of trying anything, I went for it, purchasing the smallest quantity of smoked salmon available, 4 oz. Ted was all in for trying it so on Monday morning, it was New York Breakfast, picked by Sara of Imafoodblog. Sara is at the helm of our CEimB group so make sure you take a trip over to her blog. I made two changes [...]

Is it Friday Yet?

Today’s workout, even though it was Friday, was simply weights. I used to designate Friday as my official day off working out no matter what. But since I’m doing the new program, things had to change. Besides, I was looking forward to a HUGE but healthy breakfast.. But first, it was the 4th day of Get Your Bod Back (from Muscleandperformancemag)and this is what it looked like: Chest and Biceps Incline Barbell Press: 4 sets 15, 12, 10, 8 Flat Bench Dumbbell Flies: 4 sets 12, 10 , 10, 10 Incline Dumbbell Flies: 3 sets 12, [...]

Components of a Healthy Breakfast and Using An SLR

What does stress feel like in your body? I start getting hot. Then my head feels like it’s being squeezed right at the top like cone head syndrome. I’ve still been pulling hair out trying to get things going on this new site. It can be so frustrating. To top that off, work has been super busy this week. The market is up and we certainly reaped the rewards this week. A super stress reliever or way to escape the stress source is a great workout and breakfast. I did the last day of weeks 1 and 2 on [...]

A Spartan Graduation

This is a half and half cake. One side is yellow cake with strawberries and vanilla pudding filling and the other side is chocolate cake with raspberries and vanilla pudding filling. The frosting is a sturdy buttercream because graduation parties are typically held outside and the cake may be exposed to a little summer heat. Congratulations Michael. You made the grade! This morning's activities included a 4 mile walk/jog with Shane. We saw a few people truckin' along, but not as many people out there as usual. Surprising because it's a nice mild morning. The excitement happened at home [...]
