My day began bright and early as I headed out to teach a morning boot camp class right after breakfast. (I don’t do the boot camp with class participants when I teach boot camp. I just demo and correct form.) After boot camp, I worked at the gym through the morning until I headed out for a longer-than-usual break. On the agenda for break time?
Pure Barre and Chipotle!
A winning combination in my eyes.
Today’s barre class had me feeling the burn and it felt good to move and stretch a bit. After class, I popped into a boutique to grab a last-minute Christmas gift before walking to Chipotle for lunch.
(No, I didn’t buy that wine bottle gift bag, but it did make me laugh!)
I ordered a burrito bowl on a bed of brown rice with beans, chicken, veggies, lettuce and extra fresh tomato salsa for lunch and dug in!
Once my belly was full, I walked back to my car but couldn’t resist popping into TCBY for a small cup of frozen yogurt with strawberries.
Back in the days before TCBY became one of those popular self-serve froyo places, I used to always order a white chocolate mousse soft serve cone. It’s my favorite TCBY flavor, so I was psyched to see they had it available this afternoon.
It’s the best with fresh berries!
And now I’m heading back into work but I’m hoping to carve out some time later this evening to create a new indoor cycling playlist. If everything goes according to plan, I’ll be sure to share it with you guys in the morning.
Have a great Wednesday!

Christina M says
Ah! The White Chocolate Mouse was the very first flavor I had at my very first visit to TCBY in college! Again.. before it was self-serve… I haven’t been back since though! haha – I frequent my favorite Yogurtology now when I have a craving 🙂
Julie says
love yogurtology! have you tried the oatmeal cookie flavor? <3 <3 <3
Christina M says
OMG yes!! I get that one every time! 🙂
Mia @ MakeMeUpMia says
There’s a Chipotle up the road from my Pure Barre too, may have to pop in next time 😉 Sounds like a winning combo for sure!
Sarah says
Chipotle is the best! I could eat there every night. Oh wait, I do eat there every night. Just reading up about barre classes, would love to start trying them!
Julie says
i sweat i could eat chipotle every single day, too. it’s so darn good!!
Tricia says
I was wondering, have you noticed a difference from doing pure barre? I am looking to tone up for my wedding, but I always feel like when I do barre or yoga I’m losing out on burning calories and should just stick to cardio. Any advice on what I should be doing to tone my arms/back before the big day?!
Jess says
That wine tote is so cute! And so true!
Nicole says
I’ve always wondered if I was the only one who loooooooved the white chocolate mousse. Still a fav! Try it with heath bar topping – yum.
Erin @ Erin's Inside Job says
I definitely agree with Chipotle being a winning combination after a workout. I used to be able to eat the whole thing, but now for some reason I get incredibly full. My husband is usually with me so he ends up polishing off my bowl. I saw someone eating a burrito the other day and I can’t remember the last time I saw that!
Traci says
The boot camp class at my gym is my favorite. I especially like the surprise aspect of it–you never know what you’re going to be doing. I’m curious, to you switch up the content of your class every time?
Colleen says
I really thought this was going to be a giveaway post for chipotle and pure barre and i was about to lose it because those are my two favorite things (along with dresses with pockets). either way, love it! might have to go with the pure barre/chipotle combo after work tonight 🙂
Lauren @ The Bikini Experiment says
White Chocolate Mousse was always my fave flavor too! I haven’t been to a TCBY in years. Look forward to the playlist!
Chelsea says
I have pure barre and francesca’s (assuming that’s the boutique in the picture, it looks similar!) on my list for this afternoon too! that chipotle and TCBY look yummy too 🙂
Ashley @ A Lady Goes West says
I haven’t had Chipotle in a long time, because we tend to stay away from the chains mostly here in San Francisco. But I used to be a huge fan. And I love to switch things up with a lunch-time workout. Happy Wednesday!
Heather @ Housewife Glamour says
Ahhh Chipotle IS the best. And so is barre. You do have a winning combination there, my friend. Also, I probably would have bought that bag. Hilarious <3
katieKatie says
Wait, what happened to TCBY?! We don’t have them here in the city, and I had no idea they changed! Craaaazy…
Bethany says
YUM! Chipotle and froyo!!!
Natalie @ Never Serious Blog says
I didn’t know it was humanly possible for someone to eat Chipotle without guacamole!
Also I NEED that bag!
Amber @ Busy, Bold, Blessed says
Chipotle + anything = the best combo 🙂 I have a mild obsession with Chipotle, especially the guac!
Allie says
The white chocolate mousse flavor is my favorite as well. I had completely forgotten about that yumminess
Run Eat Play says
I love Chipolte burrito bowls with guacamole! We have one way too close to us and I eat there too much!!
Amy@ SouthernMiles says
I don’ t think it can get any better than Chipolte. Sounds like a winning day to me 🙂
fitgirlprettyworld says
Mmm chipolte and fro-yo. Yummy, and much deserved after pure barre! I did a class this morning and treated myself to a Starbucks latte afterwards 🙂
Nona@ RunningHigh says
That wine tote is adorable! And now I’m craving froyo.
Skinny Fitalicious says
Chipotle and froyo in the same day? Way to treat yourself lady!
Courtney @ Alkeks Abroad says
My heart just skipped a beat when I saw the word Chipotle. Oh how I miss it so!
Lake Shore Runner says
white chocolate mousse used to be my favorite too from TCBY! Oh how I used to love me some TCBY. I havent been in forever.
Ashley @ sweet carolina belle says
I love Francesca’s for net gift ideas. They also have the cutest dresses. I haven’t had Chipolte in over a year. Now I am craving it for sure!
Nicole @ Squash on Squash says
Before I tried Chipotle this summer, I didn’t really understand what all the fuss was about, figuring it was just like a Mexican fast food chain restaurant. But once I actually tried their food (particularly the chicken and the beef), I understood what all the fuss was about! You really can taste the quality!
Becky says
Frozen yogurt with fruit is my absolute favorite. Chocolate has its time an place, but it’s not on my froyo.
Courtney Violet Bentley says
Yum! What a fun day! I miss pure barre and try to take it when I go to the states. Happy holidays! Xo C
Jodi@prairiekuchen says
We don’t have a Chipotle near – I wish we did! We have a Qdoba which is pretty comparable. Now I’m going to have to hit one up.
Ashley says
chipotle and froyo? YES PLEASE! 🙂
