There is something really great about ending the week with a round up of the things we love. It gets us positively minded, and hope it does the same for you. Or you can also look at this as your weekly update on all things gluttonous that you would love if you knew about.  Your choice, no judgment 🙂

This week, we sistas, are all about experiences that we love and that make life full.

Experiences

Accomplishment: (G) This week I had, thankfully, the opportunity to experience how great it feels to finish a training run that you aren’t so sure you can complete. I didn’t break any speed records or wow anyone with my skill. But the feeling of contentment and peace that you get when you reach a goal is fantastic. The feeling in my hamstrings, however, was less contented and peaceful.

(L) I have to echo this sentiment, sort of.  I knew I could complete the task of running two long runs back to back, but WOULD I? Yes, I did and my family thanks me! I have also made this photo my fav for the week! I should add here that my family has been so supportive of the amount of time I am running that perhaps they had been fearing for their lives previously??

Music

(G): Downtown Sydney Brown: I tend to get a little obsessed with an artist and then it’s all I listen to for a while. Honest to goodness, and I am not just saying this, I am a little whackadoo for my niece Sydney’s music. Yes the musical progeny of Lowi! I think she’s fun, fabulous, and über-talented not to mention has a serious work-ethic when it comes to following her dreams. Give it a listen, like her YouTube Channel, give her a shout-out!

(L) How can I argue with that?  I mean I do find myself singing her songs and that’s a little weird to say the least!  What’s weirder, and this could double as my experience for the week, is this:  So, we met with some music people about “artist development.”  They followed up our meeting with a very long email regarding the first things we should do as we move forward.  Change her name!!  What?  I guess finding her is difficult and there is a nude model with the same name.  Hard to compete with that!  Stay tuned for a name change.  Feel free to submit if you have a good one, but please make sure the name doesn’t identify a porn star while you are at it!

Food

(G) Tofu scramble is my latest breakfast awesomeness. While I am a non-meat, non-egg, non-dairy eater does not mean I am a no-flavor or no-enjoyment eater. It’s simple and there isn’t an actual recipe so that’s always a score in my book. Aside from throwing some pressed tofu into the skillet, wok, whatever, it’s chocked full of onion, garlic, tamari, fresh ginger, veggies like broccoli, carrots, tomatoes and for those in need of some extra b12, add a little nutritional yeast flakes. Add some avocado for garnish and eat up.

(L) I am really into Grilled Hamburgers with sautéed onions, garlic, mushrooms and spinach.  Hold the bun, add a salad and I am a happy girl. YUM! I have to make these at least twice a month!  Dinner anyone?

Random funnies with fur balls

(G) The other day I was looking for one of my fur balls and I found said feline hanging out in the bathroom. It was odd because Parsley doesn’t usually roll out of bed until around 2 pm and then it’s only for food. However, it seems this little feline has made the heating vent in our bathroom the Studio 54 of heat-seeking felines.

(L) This is Samson, aka Marley, when he is at his happiest.  Need I say more?

Peace & Gratitude,

Lowi & G
