Lately










Lately I haven't been posting many outfits or things fashion related, as you have probably noticed. However, you will have an outfit to look forward to tomorrow - you know, when I'm not lounging on the couch watching The Food Network in my lounge clothes, curled up in a quilt & eating a giant salad (pictured above).

Last week I was fortunate enough to spend some time outdoors and soak up the sun. I did this by planting flowers, hiking the Hermit Trail in town with some friends & going for longer runs and taking more time to stop by the water and stretch it out. Another bonus of this warmer weather? BARE LEGS! Yes! Jump for joy, my friends. Soon it will be sunny & warm enough to wear cute shorts, skirts and dresses sans tights. That's always a good thing!

Happy Monday to everyone!

PS. I'll save my news for another time. It's not THAT exciting.. I mean, I'm excited.

Okay, well I might as well tell you know since my fingers are on a roll typin' away!

This summer I am for sure moving to Vancouver. The suite is in the works at my cousin's house, close to being completed, and we have the whole rent (and what it includes) figured out. Oh, and the bed situation. I was afraid of leaving my comfy queen sized bed at home, but it turns out I don't have to. YAY! The only thing left is to register for classes. Oh, and move over there! :)

Mt. Tzouhalem











Good evening, bloggies! Above are only a few pictures out of the 70-some odd I took today during the hike.

My day began with a 4K run, thinking if we didn't go hiking, at least I'd get a work out in. Well, it turns out that today was absolutely GORGEOUS. I took it easy on my run this morning, stopped to stretch before I came home and stretched it out (again) while watching some Eat, Pray, Love from the comfort of my yoga mat. That juicy grapefruit up there complimented a chocolate green monster (smoothie accompanied by spinach for added greens!), and I was ready to rock n' roll with food in mah bellay!

Do you ever have those days where everything just turns out how it's supposed to? Today was one of those days, thankfully. I got a $25.00 gift certificate from my boss at the spa for a garden & flower store in town (I'm going to get some bright coloured flowers to plant in the front & Spring things up around the yard), had an awesome hike & it was SO SUNNY. Seriously. It also helps that I had today off too (and another day off tomorrow, yesss!)

More about the hike: We parked on one side of the mountain, made it up to the cross in one shot (there were so many intertwined trails!), but somehow made it down the other side of the mountain and ended up in a farm's field. Since the car was parked hours away, we ended up having to WALK all the way back to the parking lot - all up hill. We were so fortunate that it was sunny though, and I honestly didn't mind the walk. It made me grateful for my legs and feet - I love you, limbs!

Have a fabulous night everyone!
