Fall Favorites - Recipes

Fall is officially here! Well it has been for almost a week but to get in the spirit I am sharing a few of my favorite fall recipes from Pinterest.

Healthy Pumpkin Muffins

Seriously, who doesn't love anything pumpkin during these chilly fall months? Invite a friend over and enjoy these while sipping coffee! (P.S. these only take TWO ingredients!)

Pumpkin Pie Spiced Popcorn Mix

Sweet, salty, and pumpkin-y! What better snack to enjoy while watching a movie this fall?!

Low-Fat Pumpkin Waffles

I don't know about you but personally I would love to wake up to these waffles on a brisk fall morning.

Two Months Later

I'm still alive, don't worry!

A little over two months ago I blogged saying that I was going to blog more when I could and honestly I just haven't had the time but today after my run I felt this sudden urge to hurry to the computer and let you all know that I'm still here and I plan to pop in more often!

So here's whats new: School has started back up, I'm still working, I have a speech therapy client now, and I just began training for my second half marathon in November. I have a lot on my plate so can you really blame me for hiding from the blogging world?

Here's the latest news with my running.. this afternoon I went on a 3 mile run. First off, I had to drag myself out there because I had no motivation whatsoever to go and run. Second, I set a new personal record! I ran negative splits for all 3 miles! I am so excited because that is the first time I have ever done that!

That's enough for now because I have to go write lesson plans and do homework, so now you tell me, what's new with you?

While I Was Away

Hey strangers. Or am I the stranger here? I haven't blogged in... awhile.

While I was gone I seriously debated on whether or not to keep this blog alive and active and then it hit me - I love blogging when I can. So that's what I'm going to do, blog when I can.

It was stressing me out being away from the blog and not posting anything but I've realized that life comes first. I need to focus on my classes, work, and training (I'm going to start training for another half very soon!) and will definitely update you on that!

Anyways, the only fun and exciting thing that happened when I was gone was my 21st birthday! My mom took me to Chicago for my birthday and some of her best friends tagged along! We went out to eat at a fun Italian restaurant, went to several bars (some were very interesting!), and did a little shopping on Navy Pier. It was definitely a great trip.

Speaking of trips, I'm leaving for Cali on Monday to visit family and I couldn't be more excited! I love it out there. I will share pictures when I return!

For now, enjoy some pictures from Chicago!
