thursday surprises.

January 12, 2012 by Hillary 4 Comments

I totally surprised myself today.

Surprise #1. I actually got out of bed at 5:15am for a 6:00am strength training class at the gym. I’ve been trying to get myself to go all Winter Break, but I think you can understand why that’s been tough. Pumping iron before sunrise? That’s silly talk.

I wish I had been sillier a few weeks ago because swinging kettlebells with crusties in your eyes is how you pick up guys at the gym. #totallykidding

I was eating PB&J protein oatmeal + iced coffeeee by 7:00am, gave it a couple hours to digest, then met up with a friend for a hilly 7.3-mile run.

2 hours of legit exercise. #outofcontrolhunger

Fast forward through my ever-exciting daily life of pinning, eating, pinning, eating, e.mailing… I found myself on the couch with a homemade “mocha” {Via + hot water, 1% milk, unsweetened cocoa, raw sugar} and a book this afternoon. Surprise #2. #i’mnobookworm

Haven’t flipped through all that many pages yet. I think I’ll just skip to Chapter 4… then 7 ;)

Random Note of the Day: I’m obsessed with Essie Mademoiselle nail polish. #boringoldladypink

Recipe post come tomorrow morning…

Good night all,

HP

    That book looks fascinating! You want to write a cookbook? Super cool. I love the Essie. Every Essie pink color. And red if it’s Christmas!

    I’m all about the lighter colored nail polishes – they don’t show the nicks or dings [lazy girl color haha]! P.S. Pretty ring :)

This rare blue sky day in February is having me da This rare blue sky day in February is having me day dreaming about long, light-filled summer days... they’ll be here soon.

Leavenworth, WA • Where To Eat🍴 I was expect Leavenworth, WA • Where To Eat🍴

I was expecting all things beer, brats and pretzels in Leavenworth (not really my jam) 🍺🥨🧀, and while there’s plenty of it, I was delighted to find plenty of delicious eats for my “foodie” taste. 

We went to all of these 3 places more than once during our quick stay - highly recommend! 

☕️ @argonautespressobar: Located at one end of Front Street, this adorable coffee bar has delicious espresso drinks, breakfast items, and the best view! 

🥐 @tumwaterbakery: Incredible pastries, avocado toast on artisanal bread that’s a feast for your eyes... and I’m eager to go back and try their wood-fired pizza! 

🍜 @yodelinbroth: Literally some of the best food I’ve had (ever!), and that’s saying a lot. I had the Yodelin soup with housemade wild PNW halibut bone coconut curry broth, udon noodles, heaps of veggies and wild salmon - it was nourishing to my core as we ate it outside in 30 degree weather. I even bought some of the broth to recreate this meal at home, yum!

winter wonderland getaway ✔️ We had snow much winter wonderland getaway ✔️

We had snow much fun exploring the picturesque Bavarian town of Leavenworth, WA for a much-needed mid-week getaway to the mountains. 🏔

We stayed in a cozy little cabin @logecamps right on the Wenatchee River (one day I’ll be back to stay at the stunning @phleavenworth), played in Enchantment Park, took a drive to Lake Wenatchee, and discovered some of the best food downtown (I’m saving my food recs for another post).

Nestled between the snow-capped Cascade Mountains with the river running through town, it’s quite magical in the middle of winter. ❄️ I’m already dreaming of heading back for some summer adventures!
I’m sure Koba is wondering why we ever lived in I’m sure Koba is wondering why we ever lived in Florida for two years.
