Perfect weekend

Good morning! 

Today I woke up early because last night my mother came home and threw 2 chocolate bars at me (I can't resist chocolate) so I'm drinking my green monster (which by the way is the best one I've ever had due to my almond milk) and going for a 5 mile walk early and working out for an hour when I get back. 

As I mentioned I'm going to stat sharing my routines with you guys! Today I'm going to work on my chest and back which obviously involves arms as well. My upper body strength is embarrassing so that's something I want to work on. I found this video this morning and I'm hoping I can complete it but it's going to be VERY difficult. Remember to only push yourself as far as you can go. If you go beyond that point, you're going to be over exerting yourself and extremely sore the next day. Another thing I'd like to mention is epsom salts for your bath! They're really good for relieving muscle pain after a hard day of working out.

Saturday night I decided to head into town to pick up a few grocery items and while I was in town I had the urge to buy a bottle of wine. Needless to say a couple glasses turned into...
The whole damn bottle... and a shot of sambuca. Oak Ranch Estate white zinfandel is my favourite wine ever!! I haven't drank in a really long time and I really didn't feel like going to the bars or to a house party. I just wanted to stay at home, read my book, have a nice bath and hang out with my dog. My parents went away for the night so I had their king size bed to myself and enjoyed the luxury of their 50" flat screen too!

I also experimented with a stir fry for the first time. I didn't follow a recipe so it was all instinct and I have to admit that it wasn't that good but I ate it anyways. I think it was because the noodles sucked! I thought they were similar to the Asian cuisine noodles, but they're SO not. They were basically Mr.Noodles. I can't even tell you what I used for the sauce because I don't remember lol but here's the picture.

This is my FAVOURITE salad! I eat this EVERY DAY! It's SO SCRUMPTIOUS! I can't go on enough about how yummy this salad is! 
Recipe:
Spring mix
Strawberries
Walnuts
Creamy poppy seed dressing
Cherry tomatoes (I don't put them in) 

Today I'm making a green tea toner for my skin because it has so many benefits! I'll share them with you tomorrow alone with my hummus recipe!

Have a great day everyone!

Love, Happiness and Inspiration always,
