HELLO! 

My body is feeling wonderful today…most of my cells are smiling again, after a not so smiley last week for them :) lol. (sorry I didn't write this past week...at all....I wasn't feeling very inspired mentally or physically)

Possible Reason #1: I FINELY found my way back to one of my favourite yoga studios, I don’t know if it is the heat, or the atmosphere, or both, but I always feel right at home and immediately comfortable. Or maybe it is the fact that you start out in savasana! Definitely one of my favourite yoga postures. Today we were supposed to focus on breathing in and out of our belly, filling it with each inhale and using it to exhale fully. I have also been told in other classes to not belly breath but work on expanding your lungs….so if anyone has any comments on either of these techniques, I would love to hear it. 

Possible Reason #2: I just made a delicious mac and cheese!!! We have missed each other greatly for a long long time. Here is the link:

I am planning to bake it in the oven with gluten free bread crumbs and Daiya Cheese (my gluten, vegan, soy free cheese!) on top, just because I can haha, but I had to sneak a taste test because it looks so good right now…

Oh, I also made chickpea-free (allergy!) hummus using navy beans, so I am super excited to have ‘hummus’ again after 2+ years. Of course I made pizza ‘dough’ to bake later, and I am off to attempt my allergy free version of Peanut Butter (now almond butter) Chocolate Crunch Blizzard….ahh! I am sure it will be amazing.
