So it's Valentine's Eve. And I know I did a post a few days ago about how the bf and I don't celebrate the 14th of February. So just in case you think I am going to renege on that and post a Valentine's meal or crafty DIY for your sweetie or bestie, worry not. This is the anti-valentine's day food post. The "I-am-trying-t0-stay-healthly-and-not-drown-myself-in-chocholate-this-week-reciepe". Because let's face it, you will feel much Much better if you don't and take care of your body instead. In fact, it isn't entirely anti-valentines, because you are loving your self in doing so.

The Kinfolk publication is no longer a secret gem. But what maybe be still it's best kept secret is how gorgeous all the videos they do for it as well. Talk about food porn! Now, you may know I have been on a bit of a detox diet of late (and have successfully already lost about 3 pounds! Yey!). And as such have been staying away from white starches and such. But this viedo by the people at Kinfolk on the Art of Pesto is just to good to not share. It might jsut be the first thing I try when I start eating normal again!
Enjoy and happy weekend!
the 13th of Friday
It's the first Friday the 13th of 2012. Is it's supposed to be a lucky day or frightening? I admit, it started a bit scary for me this morning stepping on the scale for the first time this year... and I did that even BEFORE I even remembered it was Friday the 13th. So, it all makes sense now. Ha!
Anyhow, I am not going to beat myself up about the numbers that I saw. I am just going to make a change. Eating consciously and tracking my calorie intake and exercising at least 6 days a week (thought I really love sweating, it's the eating part that I have the hardest part with).

My New Years Eve celebration dinner at Picca. Best restaurant I have been to since Red Medicine! You just Must go!
29 going on 30
So today I turn 29.
My good friends from work helped me kick off the celebration with a little Susie Cake at lunch! Yum!
29, in and of it self, isn't that significant of a number.
Unless you start to think about it a little more...
Then you realize this is the last year you will ever be in your 20's! Yikes! So I have one year to get it together.
Just kidding! But, in fact, I was thinking of putting together some sort of challenge for the year. A set of goals to work on this next year for when I do turn 30. I know a few people that have put together a list of "30" things/goals. I am thinking maybe something for each month for the next year? Not sure I will think about it this week and do a post on what I figure out later this week or next.
Any ideas on how to begin to celebrate my last year in my 20's? Did you do anything for your 30th? Would you if you could do it over?
