Happy Friday my loves! I hope everyone had a fabulous New Year’s Eve and hopefully a nice relaxing day off yesterday. I spent all day trying to organize and auction off all of our doubles to my girlfriends. We all clearly know that I am all set in the coffee department so my old drip coffee pot is out with the old. I really wish I got my act together and did a 2014 recap or a predictions type of post this week but with the move it was just madness so I apologize for my absence.
I am so excited to be all settled into my new digs. I honestly feel like I will be getting an hour back of my life everyday where I’m not packing up my stuff and figuring out whose house we are at tonight. I can’t wait for 2015! I have a feeling it is going to be an amazing year starting off with the wedding!!! I also am looking forward to having more time to really growing the blog. I have so many exciting ideas and opportunities that are right there on the horizon. Can’t wait to share all the big plans with y’all!
Favorite Song
When I used to teach spin I pretty much had Ferry Corsten on every playlist. I just love the energy in his music. I heard this on the way home from work the other day it was like sunroof open and windows down kind of moment. Hope you dig it. Ferry Corsten ft Nat Dunn “Hyper Love”.
Favorite Recipe
Now that I have the ninja crockpot this can be made all in one but otherwise you need to do a few steps first on the stove then transfer to the slow cooker. No biggie but it is another pot for cleanup. I threw it over the quick microwavable frozen brown rice from Trader Joe’s super easy way to pull it all together. I highly recommend grabbing some the next time you are there. Slow-cooker Coconut Ginger Chicken & Vegetables full recipe here.
Favorite Workout
Give me all the booty workouts! Make sure the exercises when you are on all fours to really tuck your hips under so you protect your lower back.
Favorite Christmas Present……to myself
If you follow me on Instagram (<—you know you want to) you may have seen these already. I am so in love with these Lululemon sequin leggings. They have a somewhat shiny material and I wore them to a particularly hot barre class and I did not sweat through them at all. They are fabulous. Plus you can slip them into some boots with a sweater and totally rock them out at night.
Favorite Funnies
Every single day of my life….
I mean they must be important right since they are mentioned on every bottle? ;-)
Like every day of my life…..and I always get stuck behind a slow driver or hit every single red light
I’m sorry I died laughing. Does that make me a bad person?
Realizing the holidays are over and I have to go back to work
Pretty much how I would like to spend my time off instead of everything else I’ve had to do
How I feel when people talk about those Ragnar Relay races down to Key West that involves sleeping in a communal van……
Finally….pretty much my thoughts when it comes to the crowded work outs in January after everyone’s New Year’s Resolutions….
Let me leave you with this question
I hope you have a great weekend! What did you do for New Year’s Eve? In 2015 what are your goals? Tell me your favorites! xoxoxo
Kerry @ Till Then Smile Often says

Sarah Emily says

I’m glad you’re feeling settled in already! You’ll definitely gain more time back from not packing–more time to spend on much more enjoyable things–like finding clothing steals and making me want to spend all of my money on that hahah
Your funny pins are always some of my favorites. I especially relate to the Santa cat and going back to work.boo!!
The sequin leggings are amazing!
2015 is definitely gonna be a great year for you! Can’t wait to see what it brings!! :)
Monica Siembieda says
I’m going to have to try out that workout you showed in those sequin leggings. Those leggings are awesome!

Yay for getting settled in and married VERY soon!! :) 2015 is going to be an awesome year for you girl! Umm.. love those sequin leggings. Glad you ended up getting them! I would have totally rocked them for NYE haha! Ugh, I have a feeling I’m going to be skipping the gym for the next few weeks. I HATE how many New Year’s Resolution-ers there are, it makes it impossible to get a workout done in a timely manner! Happy 2015 love!

Congrats on the move! Getting rid of all the doubles is the worst. I recently moved in with my bf and we somehow ended up with FOUR knife blocks! If you find a secret way to find a good home for all your extras, let me know! Aside from a major haul to the Goodwill, I’m not sure how else I’ll do it!
Aimee @ Aimlessly Elegant says
In 2015 I will declutter! It is my mission to live with less crap! Good luck getting all settled in. So not looking forward to the extra crowded gym!
Nichole @ casadecrews.com says
I know a few Rangar bloggers who are obsessed and I want to be like, “Um, do I look like I am into that?” LOLOLOLOL Happy Friday!!
Jaclyn @ Love And Bellinis says
Thanks for the booty workout – I need all the exercises I can get! My new years resolutions is to grow a booty. Seriously. My husband says I don’t even have one – it’s more of an extended back. haha..
Happy New Year! 2015 is going to be a good one.
Sara Elizabeth says
Sequin leggings?! I’m totally in. I need to set a work out goal for myself… and reward myself with sequin leggings. YES.
Paige @ Reasons to Come Home says

Oh my goodness, those leggings are amazing! I bought a pair from a local boutique because I didn’t realize Lulu made any like that, and they aren’t nearly as comfortable as I imagine those are. Happy 2015!!

I love those sequin leggings. I want them, liquid leggings, and a sequin skirt. No joke. I want all the sexy, shiny things even though we don’t do sexy, shiny stuff.

And holy cow that recipe! Adding it to my meal planning list for sure!
Have a great weekend girly!
Paige @ An Uncomplicated Life Blog says
Oh girl, my gym is OUT OF CONTROL! It’s like you have to fight people for a parking spot. I just hope the people who are going to drop off do so soon, and leave more room for the rest of us who are serious about being in shape. Is that mean? Yeah, that’s mean, but it’s also mean of them to take my spot in class!
LOVE those leggings! You already know I’m about the sparkle workout wear and those are killer. Thumbs up!
cheriarmour.com says
Those leggings are fantastic. I may stop by Lulu after I leave this coffee shop to see if they have any more in the store…

Those leggings are AMAZING. I checked at my LuLu yesterday and they’re sold out! :( 2015 will be amazing for you! Can’t wait to hear all about the wedding! xo

happy new year!
Ally Harding says
Those leggings are hot!! The Nutella Makeup funny had me dying laughing. How did her friends let her leave the house like that?!

Em says
SOOOO girl I need those sequin leggings in my life and I’m not finding them on Lululemon’s site!!! *PANIC ATTACK* I’d run around in them all day long. I’m so with you on the whole crowded gym crap. I refuse to go for at least two weeks. I’ll stick to my home gym workouts and running until it starts to thin out…
Katie @ yellowmangolife.blogspot.com says
Those leggings are amazing…and I think presents to yourself are the best kind sometimes! I also pinned that workout…I need some help in the booty department, followed by even more help in the cooking department and might just have to check out that chicken recipe. Happy 2015 girl!
Katie Elizabeth says
Those leggings are fabulous! I may have bought myself a couple (few) Christmas presents, too ;) So glad you’re all settled into your new place! Happy 2015!
amanda @ as the wine cork turns says
THOSE PANTS!!!!
Kay R. says
That slow cooker meal looks yummy and man i LOVE those pants on you! So fab!
Julie @ Just the Joy's says
Don’t mind me catching up overe here a whole 10 days later… :) LOVE those sequin leggings! Give ME all the booty workouts with a side of ambition to do them! Hahaha! No but really… I don’t even want to see my cellulite filled rear over the next 10 weeks of this pregnancy. TMI? Sorry! Lol :) That ginger chicken recipe looks amazing… but I don’t have a ninja crockpot all in one so I’m guessing that’s too much work for my desire. :)
