Don’t Fight the Feeling

July 13, 2010 by Hillary 27 Comments

1. Don’t fight the feeling of wanting to watch last night’s episode of The Bachelorette at 10:30 a.m. in your sweaty and muddy exercise clothes.

2. Don’t fight the feeling of wanting lunch 2 hours after eating breakfast.

3. Don’t fight the feeling of wanting a PB&J for lunch, despite eating a bowl of carbohydrates for breakfast. Just eat your vegetables.

4. Don’t fight the feeling of wanting to take photos outside in the grass for the 16th time this summer.

5. Don’t fight the feeling of wanting to take a nap after an 84-minute run, including 3 longgg hill repeats.

6. Don’t fight the feeling of wanting to bake zucchini bread an hour before dinner.

7. Don’t fight the feeling of wanting to add chocolate chips.

Summer Bliss Bread

[original recipe from me!]

Dry.

  • 3/4 c. all-purpose flour
  • 3/4 c. whole wheat flour
  • 1/3 c. rolled oats
  • 1 tsp. baking powder
  • 1 tsp. baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp. cinnamon
  • pinch of salt

Wet.

  • 1/2 c. canola oil
  • 1/2 c. organic cane sugar
  • 2 eggs
  • 2 T non-fat plain Greek yogurt
  • 1 tsp. vanilla

  • 2 c. zucchini, shredded
  • 1/2 c. walnuts, toasted & chopped
  • 1/4 c. chocolate chips

In a smallish bowl, mix together dry ingredients. In a medium-large bowl, whisk together oil and sugar. Whisk in eggs, 1 at a time. Add yogurt and vanilla. Add flour mixture alternately with the zucchini [minimal mixing is key]. Fold in nuts and chips. Plop into a greased loaf pan and bake @ 375* for 50-60 minutes.

8. Don’t fight the feeling of wanting to smear a piece with Cacao Bliss – life’s too short.

A relaxing day at the Hillary household: running, napping, baking. I hope you enjoyed a moment of relaxation on this Tuesday, too : )

See you!

Hillary

  • Did you participate in Running Tuesday? I sure as heck did!
  • Are you watching this season of The Bachelorette? Your pick? Roberto!
  • What do you like to do with zucchini? Besides baking… grilling it, or adding it to vegetable stir-fry or pasta.

ANNOUNCEMENT: SEEKING ROOMMATE(S) for HLS

I am looking for 1+ roommates for Sunday night of the Healthy Living Summit. Also, Courtney and I are willing to share our room on Thursday night, if anyone is in need of a room then.

I already have the rooms reserved for Thursday and Sunday night [I’m rooming with others Friday + Saturday]; I am just hoping to reduce the cost of the hotel expense and meet some more amazing health bloggers by sharing a room.

Please let me know [by e.mail] if you, or anyone you know, is interested. Can’t wait for Chicago! : )

❷⓿❷⓿ - moved clear across the country to ❷⓿❷⓿

- moved clear across the country to a new state for the second time
- hopped from one AirBNB to the next for 6 weeks while looking for a house to call home
- made new friends, virtually & IRL
- binge watched more TV shows than I can recall
- leveled up as an entrepreneur: hitting milestones with my virtual assistant and @beautycounter businesses
- voted for a new president 
- ascended new trails and explored alpine lakes of the Pacific Northwest 
- adapted: to Zoom holidays, takeout, and masked faces becoming the (temporary) norm

This challenging year was all about appreciating the little things while living through some really BIG things. 2020 had more than a few lessons to teach us all. Through a pandemic, pivotal change in presidency, and loud cry for human rights, I see very clearly how privileged I am. It was the year to let go of plans and lean in to a new perspective. 

After all, hindsight is ②⓪②⓪.

Best thing about 2020... for me, it’s been relationships - virtual and IRL.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
One of the goals that I set for 2020 was to make one new local friend in Seattle (seriously something I wrote down as I began the new year moving across the country). While I’m happy to say that I did so (during a pandemic), I feel fortunate for the virtual friendships that developed, too.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
I’ve gotta take a second to give a shoutout to my newest soul sista @weeksofwonder. You helped me get after it during my second year of entrepreneurship with a hefty dose of #2020 mayhem. 🙏🏼⁣⁣
⁣⁣
Wendy and I met here on IG, and what started as a business relationship and accountability partner has turned into a special bond that transcends any walkie-talkie or social media app. This creative spirit has not only inspired me to get after it and dream bigger as an entrepreneur, but in the same way has encouraged me to honor rest and play: whether it’s giving each other kudos on Strava for tackling a run, building badass business plans and packages, or simply holding space to share the wins and the many woes, personally and professionally, of a memorable year. Having Wendy in my corner has led to some serious momentum and a sense of consistent community.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
2020 has been a shit show, but it delivered GRL PWR 👊🏻⁣⁣

We want to hear from YOU: Who has been your supportive soul sister through the ups and downs of 2020? ⁣⁣
