My run this morning confirmed just how grimy low-maintenance I can be: I love being soaked in sweat (with the exception of when my hair has been professionally done 🙂 ). I get immense pleasure out of finishing a workout with a damp t-shirt! Even though many females find the whole ordeal ‘gross’ or ‘embarrassing’, …
Who am I and what have I done with my former self? I actually look forward to strength training workouts and shockingly sometimes rather do it than cardio. Yes, that’s coming from a self-professed cardio junkie 🙄 . As I mentioned a couple of weeks ago, I made theconscious decision to get my weight training on. I …

My current strength training program is predominantly made …

While there are so many to list, the most notable is undoubetedly oats in a jar: Since coming across this …
As a kid, chicken salad sandwiches used to be my favorite…particularly bought from Marks & Spencer. Had you offered me one of those or a jar of caviar, I would have undoubtedly reached for the former. I still love chicken salad sandwiches but the mayo bit? Yeahhhh not so much! In fact, I hate mayo. …
*Disclaimer: this might be my cheesiest post yet. Hope you’re eggs-ited ;)* Between a tea-smoked trout burger, teriyaki salmon & sticky rice, mushroom & goat cheese risotto, and birthday cake #5, my taste buds have clearly been spoilt this weekend!

A lot of things don’t make sense to me. For example, I just can’t comprehend how or why people forego breakfast. It is undoubtedly my favorite time of the day.
