Do you serve appetizers at your holiday party? Because that’s exactly why I made these! So you could have delicious little snacks while you wait for the main meal! OR for New Year’s Eve when everyone be snackin’! These are my spin on those cream cheese stuffed jalapeños that are so bomb but so not great for a person who can’t do dairy. I ate these for leftovers for days and they just get better with time as all the flavors meld. Stop what you’re doing right now and go make these!

So lately, I’ve been absolutely hating our gyms workouts. Which blows. So I’ve been adding in more of my own workouts and trying movements I’ve never done before. And it’s been really damn fun! So I’ve been sharing some of those workouts with you guys on instagram and since lots of people responded to them, I’m thinking about putting together a little New Year’s packet of workouts you can do while you’re traveling or just at your own gym and send it out to my email subscribers in 2017! If you aren’t a email subscriber yet and want some free workouts, be sure to sign up on the home page at the top of the screen where it says “subscribe my mail” or at the bottom where it says “hungry for more?” then I can send you all these fun workouts soon! I can’t wait! Let’s get excited about our workouts together in 2017!

Speaking of excited, what I’m NOT excited to do is drive to Omaha for Christmas. Not into it. But my mother-in-law just had knee surgery and can’t bend her knee much yet so we are going to visit her for the holidays instead of her coming here. And there was no way I was leaving Jackson dog with a friend for Christmas. Hells to the nah. So we are packing up the car and heading out. Sadly, my family isn’t into murder podcasts and think I’m a psychopath for being into them, so I think I may have to keep my headphones in the whole time and listen on my own. No family murder listening. Alas, I need to find some new podcasts to listen to! Here’s what I’ve finished so far or have listened to most so far:

Up and Vanished
My Favorite Murder
Sword & Scale
Serial
In the Dark
Undisclosed
Accused
Girls Gone Wod

What are you listening to and loving right now?! I need stuff to keep me entertained while driving 7-8 hours and music just doesn’t cut it for me. I need stories. And these murder podcasts are beginning to make me trust absolutely no one and look over my shoulder every 14 seconds, so if you have any other positive or fun podcasts (or murder, I’ll always take murder) then send them my way! My friend recently sent me a couple Ted Talks about dealing with some of the negativity I get on my website, so I was thinking about listening to those too! And if you think I should finally man up and download audible to listen to books on tape, well I’ll do that, too! I can’t believe I haven’t yet anyways! Tell me stuff!!
