We spent the first hour of our day doing dishes and laundry and picking up around the apartment.
After snacking on a quesadilla (Colby jack string cheese warmed on a whole wheat quesadilla), Ryan and I headed to the gym for a fast and sweaty workout.
I did a random cardio hodgepodge that included:
Once Ryan and I were done at the gym, we headed home and leashed up Sadie for a 2.5 mile walk.
Sometimes I get the feeling that Sadie doesn’t particularly enjoy lots of loving cuddles on our walks…
I mean that face doesn’t exactly say “I love you, Mom! More cuddles, please!” 😉
Ryan and I couldn’t stop laughing when we saw her stressed out bug-eyed face in that picture.
In the words of Chandler Bing, she’s a hoot!
Once our walk was over, we ran a couple of errands and Ryan got a haircut. By the time we got back home it was after 11 a.m. and I was more than hungry!
Breakfast
I wanted a F-A-S-T breakfast and thought a cold, creamy smoothie sounded perfect.
I busted out the blender and got to work.
I made a pomegranate smoothie by combining the following:
- 1 c. POM Wonderful pomegranate cranberry juice
- 1 scoop vanilla protein powder
- 1 HUGE frozen banana
- 1/2 c. cottage cheese
The result was a thick, creamy smoothie with a little bit of tang from the pomegranate juice. It was tasty!
I served it in an adorable wine glass that I received from blog reader Alyssa who noticed that I am a huge lover of Etsy, an online marketplace where artists can sell handmade goods.
Alyssa has a super-crafty shop of her own through Etsy and sells hand painted wine glasses that she creates herself.
How cute is this Wine-O glass?
It’s definitely meant for a true wine-o, because it is huge!
It held my entire smoothie without a problem.
Plus, the glass matched my smoothie, and you guys know how much I love matchy matchy things. 😉
I gotta get runnin’ because I have a mani/pedi appointment today and then Ryan’s mom and her boyfriend are heading over to hang out for the rest of the day.
See ya in a bit!

Hahaha, I couldn’t stop laughing either at Sadie’s face!! Maybe there was a squirrel in the background? The wine glass is super cute! I love crafty things like that!
aww! that is sooo funny and cute! our dog Addie does that sometimes! and other times she is all about hugs and kisses!
I love that wine glass! 🙂 Also, I know it sounds weird, but I wish my gym at a stair master. It’s in my apartment complex, so it just has treadmills, elliptical, bike, weights and weight machines, which isn’t bad, but I miss the stair master, and taking classes!
Ha! Lovin’ Sadie.
that wine glass is so fun! i’ll have to check out her shop. i love etsy too! i got some great earrings there. 🙂
Oh my gosh, Sadie’s face is priceless in that photo! Frame it! haha. I couldn’t stop laughing- she is definitely asking for more love, if you ask me 🙂
HAHA! Sadie! Wow! What a face! I’m sure she loves y’all to pieces, but she definitely has something else on her mind in those photos. 🙂
That smoothie looks sooo good!
Love that wine glass! It’s so pretty. I like crafty things like that. Plus, pretty dishes make food taste better. 😀

Ha, Sadie’s face is priceless!! She seems like one of those dogs who really just wants to run and play 🙂

That smoothie sounds delicious – the wine glass makes it look even better! 🙂 Sadie’s face looks hilarious! Poor doggie! <3
Sadie face seriously made me “laugh out loud!” Reminds me of my dogs who get so excited to be free in the outdoors.
Haha Sadie looks so happy! I love when animals get freaked out like that
What a cute pink drink in an adorable glass! Have fun at the mani/pedi! What color are you getting?
I feel SO much more sophisticated when I drink out of a fancy glass!
I saw the same breed dog you have at the vet this morning. I was trying to tell my hubby the name of the breed and I forgot. Can you mention it again?
Sadie is too stinking cute! Enjoy your day. 🙂
What kind of vanilla protein powder do you use? In you Q&A, you said you liked All the Whey, but I was looking for it online, but it looks like it was discontinued. Where do you buy yours, or do you have any good suggestions for protein powders?
I can’t stop laughing at Sadie! She looks so funny in that picture. You should totally do a day in the life of Sadie.
ahaha dogs make the funniest faces 🙂 That smoothie looks gooooodd…..
My dogs are the same way! I just think they gotta look cool for the other dogs that might be around, so no affection for mom! Sadie looks hilarious!
aww you and ryan are so cute!
i must say, you two make a lovely couple. you’re such a beautiful girl and he’s so hunky! haha
Oh my gosh, I can’t stop laughing at that picture! There was another picture you posted a long time ago of Sadie being crazy and they both make me laugh every time!
