I love and respect waffles. More than pancakes. #factoftheday
I did it. I took my first spin class. Well, not my first one ever, but the first one in my new attempt for more cardio and more exercise. I love my CrossFit, I like to lie and act like I love my running, and now I’m trying to love spinning. I’ve lost some inches by lifting less during my workouts and running more, and feel much more comfortable in my skin, so I’m keeping it going with a little more movement in my day. Spinning makes you real sweaty.
It was funny to walk into a globo gym for the first time in probably over 3 years. I haven’t been in one since I worked at the Rec Center in college. And if you went to a big college, you know what those gyms look like. Lots of cut off t’s, lots of short shorts, and lots of make up. And girls that haven’t eaten in weeks because they are trying to lose 20 pounds in 2 weeks before spring break. Obviously, college students are extremely intelligent about their eating and drinking habits. Maybe if they cut the beer out, they wouldn’t have to starve themselves. And pass out while ellipticalling. That’s not a word. Whatever. Anywho, after being in a CrossFit gym for over 3 years and knowing every person in the gym, it was weird to walk into a gym where no one talks much. Everyone looks so serious. And it was weird to have mirrors everywhere. Not really into that. I like not knowing my pain face.
Anywho, do I need to watch Game of Thrones? I feel like I’m the only person in the world of Facebook that isn’t watching it then Facebooking about it. I don’t even know what it’s about. But now I’m interested. And curious. I want to be part of the in crowd.
Do you ever wonder how many fake people exist on Facebook? No? I do. I totally do. Facebook is kind of really creepy.
OMG. A new season of The Kardashians is on. I don’t care what you think of me, I LOVE that show. L.O.V.E. It’s so addicting. I don’t really know why. Probably because their makeup is so awesome, or because they have lots of money. People with lots of money are interesting to watch. Not really, but kind of.
I’m really boring myself today. I can’t imagine how you’re feeling.

Does it have to be shredded coconut or can it be coconut flakes? I want to make these tomorrow morning of I survive the 7am class.
grind the coconut flakes in a food processor first and they will work just fine
how many waffles did this end up making?
5. it’s in the instructions
Nah, you don’t need to watch Game of Thrones…but you should read the books! 🙂
Great recipe!
If facebook was a country it would be the third largest in the world after China and India another #factoftheday
I don’t get the whole game of thrones obsession. I watched an episode last year and wasn’t impressed. that blonde girl’s eyebrows are black and I just can’t look at her at all without laughing haha
I don’t watch Game of Thrones either (we don’t pay extra for that channel) and I feel like I’m missing out. Hopefully it will be on Netflix one day and then I can be like three years behind the cool kids…
And I watch the Kardashians too, ugh. I just can’t seem to quit them. I want the show to get cancelled so I can finally be over it, but they just won’t do it, damn it!
Love Game of Thrones! The books were recommended to me a while ago, and I was so excited to see HBO bring the characters to life (also not a book snob who freaks out about small deviations). I’m super obsessed with waffles right now, and have the cutest one-square waffle maker that it probably the oldest thing in my house (aside from me)
Don’t feel bad. Everyone I know is like you need to start watching it.
Oh and the waffle recipe looks great. I hope to try it later this week. 🙂
do you think this recipe would work as a pancake? I don’t own a waffle iron but the ingredients sound so yummy!!! Have you considered adding crossfit endurance to your programming? I was just in Houston for my CFE cert and it was AWESOME!!!
Your waffles rock. I’m all over it…and added blueberries to the mix. And I admit…I like looking at Bravo/E! TV, too, and all the good clothes and make up. I’m a “more is less” kinda gal, but I got the long brown locks like the K sisters.
Ellipicalling… Ha! You had me laughing! Now I have to go workout.
