>Thanks for your crock pot suggestions on yesterday’s post. If you still recipes to share, please do! I’m a slow-cooker virgin…hehe
Last night I Tweeted that I had a very [emotionally] draining night at work. Without sharing too much information, a situation brought me back to last spring when I lost a good friend to suicide. Since his passing, there is rarely a day that goes by when he doesn’t cross my mind. Brian was an avid runner and I often find myself thinking of him when I see a beautiful sky, have a crazy endorphin high, or just find peace while hitting the pavement. Suicide is never the answer and with time things will always get better. I just wish he knew that.
In more uplifting news, I’ve managed to make some good (and clean) eats over the last few days, despite the chaos and long hours at work.
I’m not going to lie. Lately I’ve been eating oatmeal every.single. day for breakfast. I can’t get enough!
(Polenta)
1. Preheat oven to 425F
2. Mash polenta until crumbled
3. Bring to boil l in 1.5 cups H20
4. Add spices and cook reduce to medium heat for 5 mins
(Pie)

2. Drain excess liquid (picture below is before draining liquid)
Alright, I’m off to break in my new Garmin watch (wooo!) then take a BodyPump class before heading to work.
