Happy Friday! I’m SO ready for the weekend, especially since I got my workout done this morning, thanks to coaching the early CrossFit classes! Even though I usually go to CrossFit in the afternoon, it is a great feeling to be done with it early and have the rest of the day to do other things, like make a Lemon Meringue pie later (more details to come!).
Speaking of CrossFit, I did WOD 13.2 last night which was a 10 min AMRAP of: 5 shoulder to overhead (75 lbs), 10 deadlights (75 lbs) and 15 box jumps. I completed 7 rounds and 8 reps for a total of 218 reps, not bad, but not great either. I was really hoping to get a full 8 rounds. I was able to keep a steady pace (with no breaks) throughout the entire time, but the box jumps were what slowed me down. I’m thinking of doing it again on Sunday, so we’ll see…
But, instead of dwelling on my performance yesterday, I’m looking forward to a fun-filled “girls afternoon” with my friends tomorrow. The guys are babysitting, while we shop! It should be lots of fun!
Anyhow, since it is the end of the week, it is time for another round of Friday Favorites and the second link-up! If you are new here, every Friday I reflect back on the week and cherish some of my favorite moments and eats. I hope you will join me and do the same!
Favorite Moments:
Feeding the geese and ducks at the park with our friends.

Mmmm . . . love massaged kale salad! It’s a no brainer what my foodie highlight was from the week: http://eatmovebalance.com/steamed-lobster-tails-and-preparation-how-to/
It is now one of my favorite salads! I liked your kale salad recipe that you posted a week or so ago, too!
I’m so into the massaged kale salads now! Don’t think I’ll ever make it another way again! Loved our park play date! So fun to see the kids playing and feeding the birds! Hope you have a great weekend! Oh and I’m definitely going to have to try those eggs.
I’m with you; I don’t think I’ll make kale another way again! Enjoy your weekend!
The kale salad sounds fantastic!!
