With life busy adjusting to two kids, we haven’t managed to get out much. The husband & I still make sure to have some time special for ourselves. We may not get to have a date night out for a little while, but we don’t mind spending some nights curled up on the couch with a movie.
Last night we popped in Food, Inc. We are a bit late to the game in viewing this one.

It didn’t provide any extraordinarily new information or insight to me, but seeing certain things definitely made the message more effective. Let’s just say I’m glad we only purchase certain types of chicken and bought a share of a cow from a local small-time farmer. I don’t foresee a huge overhaul in my eating preferences happening, but I definitely hope to continue mindfully choosing things I eat.
I say that knowing we are having some pizza and using our monthly BOGO Dairy Queen coupon tonight. 😉 We’ll be watching Social Network tonight…not too behind the rage of that one.
Question of the Evening – What popular movie did you see recently? Did it live up to what you expected? I’m anxious to see Black Swan because of all the talk I have heard of it, but then worry I may end up hating it because its so hyped up.

For awhile I have wanted to start a weekly post featuring some of my favorites from the week. Featured workout move (with a short vlog to show each week), favorite moment of the week, top posts I recently read, favorite meal, and whatever else pops in my head. And what better time than now? I hope you all like it!!!
Featured Move: The Plank
I haven’t started fully working out again yet, but I did want to go ahead and begin strengthening my core again. Enter the plank – my all-time favorite core move. You even get a peek at cutie pie Makenzie doing her own version.

Featured Moment: FFF’s Blog Birthday/Anniversary
I had a lot of memorable moments this week – my “Real Deal” post and fitting into my jeans again – but reaching the 1 year milestone stands out to me personally.

Featured Meal: Care Meals
I can’t pick one meal this week. I appreciate the numerous meals our friends have provided for us recently.
Featured Post: Katy from The Singing Runner - “The Tides Have Changed”
I’m a sucker for when people pour out their emotions and things they currently struggle with. There was something special about Katy’s post that reflected her uncertainty on different paths she faces in the upcoming future.
Featured Fun: Despicable Me
Peter & I watched this movie one night and it was surprisingly very funny and cute. I love kid movies with a hidden adult sense of humor.

Featured Cuteness: Play time together
Featured Question: What things would you like to see in the FFF Features?
