Pittsburgh

Race time

I desire to do your will, my God; 
   your law is within my heart. Psalm 40:8

Hey there! I’m typing up this post on Friday morning but as you are reading it on Saturday I will be running (or finished with) a 10 mile race! Exciting and nerve wracking all at the same time.

I decided to share some of my recent eats.

Chocolate Chunk Luna Bar

I’m a big fan of Luna Bars and I liked Chocolate Chunk but for now I think my favorite is Smores or Chocolate Dipped Coconut.

Chili + corn bread. Also unpictured: broccoli and grape juice.

Salad with: red peppers, mixed greens, cukes, tomatoes, roasted muchrooms, carrots, peas, and roasted onions with Newman’s Own dressing and shrimp.

Fresh shrimp (my mom had fun peeling & de-veining them.. thanks mom!) steamed in water + cider vinegar + OLD BAY SPICE<3

Iced pumpkin spice coffee.

One more picture to share:

Three animals on my bed at once. I feel loved 😉

Have a great weekend!

Yoga and eats

Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will. Romans 12:2

On Tuesday I sent a text to my best friend asking if she wanted to go to hot yoga with me but she was working… sad times. So I went all by myself- yay i’m a big kid!

It felt good to stretch everything out and relax for once in my life. I have a hard time doing/buying things for myself. I’m always thinking that I shouldn’t be spending my money and I should be doing other more productive things. Then I realize if i’m always saving money and always doing “more productive” things that I get stressed and run down-no good.

I don’t know about other areas in the U.S., but Pittsburgh is experiencing fall full on lately. I tried to take a picture of the foliage but my camera focused on the rain on my windshield.

Much better! That is the view on my way to campus in the morning. God is good.

What else is good?

Chicken pot pie with a biscuit crust!

Sweet potato fries

Chocolate dipped coconut Luna bar 😀

Campus is looking gorgeous.

Funny story.. i’m nerdy. When I take notes I love to have a pencil, a .5mm colored pen, a .7mm black pen, and various highlighters. Ummm… yeah. 😉
