Lovin' V

Hey friends! Happy Friday to you! Another long week in the books and a beautiful weekend ahead. My schedule is wide open for the weekend and I couldn't be more excited. Though, on Saturday I am walking/running a 5k, but other than that I am free. I see a lot of relaxing, tanning and cooking in my future :).

What are your plans for the weekend?

This week I wanted to share with you a few more things that I am totally lovin' right now. My brother adopted a little pup last week so I thought it was a good time to introduce all of the Flynn fur babies!!! I am always lovin' on these furry companions!!

One Pan Cheesy Sausage Pasta

The other night I made this fabulous, quick dish from the oh-so-amazing Amanda at kevinandamanda.com. Her food is always so amazing and her pictures just make you want to dive through your computer screen and take a bite!

I made her spicy sausage pasta dish and it was not only super quick and easy as she promised, but so creamy and the perfect amount of heat throughout, thanks to a can of Ro-Tel! How easy is that?!

Here is my recipe for Amanda's dish, but just a tad lightened up!

Lovin' IV

I hope you are enjoying your weekend so far! I know I sure am. Has anyone else felt like the weeks are so long and slow recently and the weekend is just gone in the blink of an eye? Man, it sure has for me. And I know that is usually the case, but it is like extra terrible this week.

Anyways, I have some fun (and yummy) things to share with you this week! So, without further adieu here is another addition of Lovin'!

Check-Up

Summer has officially started which also means that the first half of the year has already flown by. I know, I can't believe it either.

Back in February I made a few goals for the new year and considering it is July, I think it's time for a check in to see how I am doing and what I need to start doing.

A Full Day of Eats

Hi guys! I hope everyone had a fun and safe holiday weekend and you enjoyed some delicious treats! I know I sure did. My brother had us over for a cookout & fireworks at his place and man, was there a ton of  (fairly healthy) food! Then, we headed up to Lake Gaston for a little getaway. After a couple of nice days off it has been a little tough adjusting back into a workout and diet routine, but I think its going well so far!
