Healthy Chicks

1. The fact that you can still wear your absolute favorite summer dress just one more time (even if this past weekend was the last)

2. That running outside is pleasurable yet again, especially with the scenic fall leaves & wind blowing in your hair

3. Pumpkin everything. Have you tried adding it to your oatmeal yet? If not, I highly suggest you do.

4. The fact that candy corn was on sale for .89 cents the other day at CVS, reminding you that it’s OK enjoy a handful here and there (and to act like a kid again)

5. Hayrides, hot cocoa, cornstalks and apple cider everywhere

6. The discovery that adding a few chocolate chips to your coffee & then stirring = pure bliss.

7. Fall vegetables. Hello acorn, butternut and spaghetti squash. Try one of my favorite ways with butternut squash here.

What’s got you grinning from ear to ear?

Every day should be a celebration in my opinion.

Scratch just birthdays, anniversaries and graduations.

Celebrate the life you are living.

Celebrate the gorgeous food on your plate that fuels & energizes your soul.

Celebrate crossing the line of your first 5k, your first half marathon, or your first triathlon.

Celebrate that first magical kiss.

Celebrate finally being able to reach flying crow pose in yoga.

Celebrate the first leaves changing colors, the first snowfall, the first flower blooming, and the first beach day.

Celebrate…life.

One of the discussions on spirituality and faith really stood out to  me, and I’d like to share one of the quotes with you that really struck a chord.
