Endless Adventures

This week has been pretty adventurous and it's only Thursday! You have to love sweet summertime. :)

Starbucks?

Nope.. a bowl full of hearty turkey chili.

Mister Rooster is drinking some delicious Diet Root Beer and nibbling on a Georgia peach.

Salad w/ red bell pepper, raisins,
Parmesan cheese, turkey burger, sauerkraut

My mom and I went for a 22 mile bike ride on Tuesday. We found this pretty ocean view.

When we got back we were craving: Crisper's summer salad + citrus herb dressing. The candied pecans in this salad are my favorite.

(Cottage cheese with cinnamon)

Yesterday I went on a 4 hour canoe ride on the Weeki Wachee River.

My dad, brother, and I switched off every hour for the kayak.

Kayaking is the BEST arm workout.

Lunch on the river: un-pictured Spicy Italian Subways & banana

The whole river is basically a spring-- crystal clear and 72 degrees. Brrr!

This morning's breakfast consisted of a protein powder pancake:
2 scoops soy protein powder, 2 egg whites, cinnamon,
Smucker's syrup, iced coffee, & a granny smith

That's all for today friends! <3 HBB

  1. Hey girl! Oh my goodness I'm so jealous of all the amazing outdoor shenanigans you've been getting into - and that view - how GORGEOUS! I love kayaking, and definitely agree - it is quite the arm workout, but totally worth it. That river looks amazing as well - crystal clear water isn't something you see much of around here.

    I enjoy the rooster also, haha!

    Have a wonderful Thursday!

    Love,
    Meg

  4. I've got to agree with Meg on this one...I am totally jealous of all your fun outdoor activities! Gahhh I would love to be able to do that everyday. Do you mind if I come and live with you? Haha, I'm only half kidding though. ;)

  6. what amazing views you get! I am dying to visit CA one day!

    Your starbucks mug is so cute- I use mine all the time but it's a completely different shape! I've never seen one like yours before!

    have you abandoned cream soda for root beer?.. :( (though that means more cream soda for ME, lol)

    enjoy your weekend x

  9. Sounds like you're definitely enjoying the lovely sun! And omg, you're getting me everytime with that iced coffee. It looks so good! :)

    ps - You might want to try taking your food pictures WITHOUT the flash on the camera. I learned that about a month into blogging and found that my pictures came out so much better!

  10. I love to kayak! But yes your arms are def sore the next day(or five in my case haha!). I think you deserve to be a bit lazy--your one girl on the move =) Enjoy your weekend!

  11. Haha, I'd love to hear the orange juice incident... Sounds like something I would do! ;) And you're more than welcome for the no-flash tip. Try it out and see if it works for you as well. And if you ever get a new camera, I TOTALLY recommend the cannon powershot. Seriously the best camera I've ever had. My mom, my aunt, and my grandma all got one after seeing how great mine is. :)
