Good evening my pals! Did you have a good day? I certainly hope so. I know its only been a couple days, but would love to hear your thoughts on my new ways of posting – more often, more personal in the 30 DSLR posts, random glimpses into my life on other posts, occasional tips, etc. I will always be true to myself, but value you all as my readers and friends. Therefore, I care about your take on things as well.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

My energy the past few days has certainly compensated for the lackluster drive I had for anything last week. Last week, I had no desire for a formal workout whatsoever. This week I felt the complete opposite. Monday I completed a TurboKick workout at home. Tuesday I took a spin class. Wednesday I went for a walk. And today I made sure to get in a weights session with an at home circuit.

I typically use a Cathe DVD for weights workouts at home, but I didn’t feel like having to set up a bunch of equipment in my basement. So, I opted for resistance bands. They are such a handy workout tool for versatile, effective, and portable workouts. For today’s workout, I mixed up a lot of squats, lunges, and pushups with moves like rows, overhead presses, bicep curls, and triceps extensions with the band. I basically continued alternating upper and lower body moves to keep my heart rate up for a solid 30 minutes. Coupled with another walk, it made for a great impromptu and couldn’t-make-it-to-the-gym workout.

Oh I can’t wait for post baby when I start designing my own workouts to share with you guys!! 😀 Some ladies out there know what I can come up with. 😉

I worked up a decent appetite and figured tonight was a perfect night to healthify one of my favorites right now – Mexican! After seeing veggie enchiladas on Caitlin’s, Jessica’s, and Brittany’s blogs I have craved them. I kind of did a hodge podge of all their creations.

I cooked up some baby bella mushrooms, sweet corn, onion, and green bell pepper until soft.

I combined about 1/4 c of sour cream and 1 small can green chilies to mix with the veggies. Then, I placed a couple spoonfuls of refried black beans and the veggie mixture into each tortilla.

Rolled up, topped with more sauce and cheese, then baked in a 350 oven for about 25 minutes.

More of a mixing together of things than a recipe (and not very photogenic), but they sure turned out good!

You should try them! Then, stay away from me for about the next 24 hours. Toot toot! 😀 See ya in the morning!
