Hey hey! I hope all of you are soaking up the rest of your weekend! Today has been nice and relaxing for me. But before I get into the details, I wanted to let you know I’m revamping my blog! 
You might have noticed I changed my background today. I hope ya’ll like it. Next up, I’m getting a new header! Shane and I cruised through the city today taking pictures of possible candidates for a header graphic. If I have a hard time picking one, I might be asking you for your opinions.
Personal Record Run!
I did it! I ended up running 5.5 miles this morning. At first I didn’t think it was gonna happen. I just didn’t feel that into it. I was even stalling by taking out the garbage (something I never do!) and asking Shane random questions haha. After eating half of a banana…
…I finally got my butt out the door.
I can’t believe how easy it felt! I did a nice slow pace (for me) and finished in about 53 minutes. Here are my other stats:
It felt amazing!!! I really felt like I could run longer, but I was back at my front door, so I just headed inside lol.
Naturally, I was famished afterward, so I started to whip up some
bluuueberry pancakes. I used the Zesty Recipe again, but made a couple minor tweaks (including the blueberries.)
Wet ingredients:
Dry Ingredients:
Voila!
On top was a choice of pure maple syrup and natural blueberry syrup.
Mighty Maple turned out to be another topping for my cakes.
All together now!
They were so delicious. This recipe makes a butt-load of pancakes (yes, butt-load is a measurement!) so I saved the rest to eat either tonight or tomorrow morning.
After showering and taking pictures all around Normal I made myself a Green Monster. I used the Amazing Grass – Wheat Grass in today’s smoothie. I could taste it, and while it’s an excellent serving of antioxidants and vitamins, I favored the Green Super Food taste more. It did give me a little pick-me-up, though! (Mental or not, I was happy to take it!)
What else went into the pool:
For lunch, I just had to bust out my handy dandy George Foreman Grill. Shane wanted a grilled cheese, so I whipped up one of those babies in no time!
I really wasn’t sure what I wanted, but somehow ended up making an egg fritada with a side of Ezekial toast. The fritada had summer squash, goat cheese, and red pepper sprinkled on top.
And one two of these bad boys for dessert.
I’m trying to decide what I’ll cook for dinner tonight. I wanted to make mango chicken, but I can’t find that recipe anywhere! I swear I got it from Carrots ‘N Cake, but I couldn’t find it on her blog. We’ll see though!
How’s your Sunday going? Hopefully you’re enjoying it

I didn't even make it out the front door today. Lazy Sundays are sooo good, but sometimes make me feel like a blob!
Ooh I want some bluuueberry pancakes tooo! And hahaha, what a fittin background for today's post!
I totally self-stall on workouts too, if my workout class starts at ten i wait until like, 9:55 am and then i'm like crap I really need to go!
Great job on the run, it totally must have been the tagalong blizzard
Yay–that is exciting about getting a header designed for your blog! I like the color of the background–it is calming.
Those pancakes look delish–if you ever have too many butt loads of pancakes–you can send a butt load on over to me. hehe
