Rough start today. Son woke up kind of early and I was so tired from all the craziness from yesterday that I truly wanted to just stay in bed. Of course this is never an option for the mom on the go. So I get up against my own good judgement and soldier on. It helps that on the ride… Read more →
I’ll make this one quick. I plan on tomorrow’s post to be the final of the daily series. I will still continue the challenge for an entire month and will post once a week until the month is up. I would have continued daily but I’ll be honest it is a bit much for me plus I don’t think there… Read more →
“One of the most predictable thing about life is just how unpredictable it really is.” I am sure this quote originated somewhere more amazing then where I first heard it which was in the Disney movie Ratatouille. I said last week that this week was going to be business as usual and it has proven to be far from that.… Read more →
Wow! What a day. Yesterday I had a scheduling conflict and didn’t make it to the gym. Don’t worry I still had my can of Unsweetened Matcha Love from Ito En, did some planks, squats, and walked around my neighborhood. I am not going to make any judgements about I felt yesterday only because the challenge was for me to… Read more →
Day 2: Unexpected * I’ll make this quick and will start by saying I’m not a doctor and my results are my own. I exercise 5 days a week and follow a strict diet high in protein, low in calories, low in sugar, and moderate on carbs. I normally drank the Ito En Sencha Shot before my workout I am now trying… Read more →

Monday, Wednesday, and Friday I do weights and cardio. Tuesday and Thursday is cardio only. Weekends I stay active by doing outdoor activities with… Read more →
If you don’t know already I am a huge fan of tea and tech. If you can somehow combine the two successfully I am in love. At the World Tea Expo 2015 in chilly, yes chilly Long Beach, California I was introduced to the new love of my life. Let me introduce you to the Tea-Ceré by Sharp Home USA.… Read more →
This morning I woke up with a bang. My FitBit Charge HR says I slept alright though I wish I had less “restless” time. Better than most nights though since I got in almost 8 hours which is something I try to do. Sleep is so important and can be over looked for its value. I will not make that… Read more →
Stop now if you are looking for facts, scientific mumbo-jumbo, or anything that may suggest without a shadow of a doubt that tea is a super power. The information I will be providing is purely based on my experiences and my interpretation of the results I have achieved. I have hydrated with water just as most do. However, I currently… Read more →
I am keeping this short and sweet as this wasn’t my cup of tea. Not because the tea itself was flawed in anyway at all but rather it isn’t for my palette. The tea I am referring to is a Turkish inspired green tea blend called Thé Du Hammam which was graciously provided by the lovely Jo Johnson @jopj… Read more →
Keeping Up With iHeartTeas As most of you already know I have a lot going on right now. You would think being pregnant was enough for someone’s to-do list but as it turns out I just can’t stop myself from doing more. I will highlight a few things that have been going on. A brief explanation of what I have… Read more →
No, I’m not talking about money. Although I wouldn’t mind an extra few bucks. What I am talking about is…Green Tea. Like many of you, I go through moods where I drink a particular tea constantly and then when the wind blows just right I switch to something new a few weeks or months down the line. These days I… Read more →
