Dumbbell Supersets

It’s been a few days since I have posted anything, and it’s been even longer since I have shared ten Tuesday tidbits.

1. Last weekend, I got to meet the talented Caroline in San Francisco. How cool is it that blogging can bring a Cali girl and a New Englander together?

2. After seeing Britt and blends have so much fun at The Dry Bar, I treated myself to some pampering in The City on Saturday. Yay for blowouts!

3. C runchy Chia Energy Bites are my kind of mid-afternoon pick-me-up.

4. Yesterday, I shared 5 Gluten-Free Summer Recipes on Heather’s blog. That watermelon salad though.

5. Tonight, I made one of the aforementioned recipes: Summery Salmon with Apricot Peach Salsa. Easy peasy preparation with gourmet flair. Boyfriend approved.

6. Last Thursday, June 19, was my 25th birthday. Sadly, I was too wrapped up with school and getting ready for a weekend away (see #3) that birthday celebrations sort of got put on the back burner. I’ve declared a “re-celebration” for this Thursday.

7. A couple of months ago, I got lured into purchasing an executive Costco membership. The cashiers look at me funny when I have three items sliding down the conveyor belt: organic raspberries, a pound of hemp hearts, and a jumbo bag of multigrain chips.

8. Almost every other night, P and I go on after dinner walks. I’m either a bit competitive about the 6-week walking challenge at work, or I enjoy the gentle physical activity and orange sunsets after a long day.

9. I finally bought heavier dumbbells… finally! I tested them out with some sunny supersets on Sunday (via this workout) and I am still sooo sore — holy glutes! Silly idea after consecutive rest days.
