From eating to working out to cleaning up {five faves}

1. Spicy shrimp stir fry
Jenna Beaugh does not disappoint. She is one of my favorite food bloggers. This recipe of spicy shrimp is amazing. Two thumbs up from hubby.








Just look at the colors of this stir-fry. The greens, red bell peppers and the shrimp..... hmmmmm... It tastes as good as it looks! I like the spicy kick from the marinade. And it's a mild kick, ok.. So don't be afraid to try it out. If you want it less spicy, then use less marinade... or like me: I added >1 broccoli head, 1.5 red bell peppers just because there was half left over from my salad this week and a big bokchoy instead of a baby bokchoy. If I put something more, might as well be the veggies, eh?

2. Sweet smelling vanilla
I had a coupon for 20% off online order and free shipping at BBW. I love vanilla. I love macarons and I love pink. This foaming handwash has it all.






3. 3 stage seat
This one is a lifesaver. Thanks to my mom for getting it for Sebastian's Christmas present. I place him here for 20-30 minutes or so and I pop a video and workout.

You've seen Bastian here...

And also here.





4. Fitness Blender
Y'all, I just cannot work out with Jillian. I just can't. I do not like being yelled at. I use her vids every now and then. But for these past couple of weeks, I have found these free full length workout videos on YouTube. I like it that they do the workouts themselves and not just telling us what to do. They huff and puff during the workout. I also use my own music blasting from the iphone. Then workout video on my ipad. Voila!



and I love hearing: workout complete.

5. Facial scrub
After raising my heart rate for 30-45 minutes, the next best thing after cool down and stretch is a nice, warm shower. I use this facial scrub 3-4x a week. It's pretty inexpensive. It does not dry out my face.






How about you? Any spicy recipes you like? Any facial cleansers or scrubs you use? How about your go-to cardio or strength training workout videos? Do you have any recommendations? How do you keep the baby occupied while you workout for 30 minutes or so? Do you do it during naps?

Linking up with Hallie and friends!

  1. I just added that baby play seat to our registry :) And I tried St. Ives way back in high school and it made my face breakout, but maybe it's time to give it another try! That soap is so pretty (fellow pink lover).
