I’ve made the conscious decision that I cannot and will not carry a purse any longer. Pretty much because I take my lifting shoes with me wherever I go. And two water bottles. And tape. And a lacrosse ball. And 2-3 containers of Tupperware. And another change of shoes. Yeah…a purse just ain’t cuttin’ it. So I’ve moved to a back pack. I’ve wanted to get a super stylish Lululemon tote/bag/thing to carry around with me so I don’t look like a school child, but those things cost like a million dollars. More like $130, but come on, I don’t just have $130 sitting around. I have a change jar people. That I utilize. Often.

OMG. I forgot to tell you guys, my first cooking video for Again Faster came out! I made my Sweet Potato and Apple Breakfast Patties for the video! An old recipe but a goodie. I kind of burned the patties on film, but whatevs. Thank goodness I had Patrick Cummings to do an amazing job with the photography so it still looked edible. I still ate most of it.  I’ll seriously eat anything though.

This was the first video I shot so you can tell I’m a bit nervous. And awkward. And I have real people clothes on so I’m even MORE awkward. I shot 7 cooking videos out in Boston. That means 7 different outfits. Do you know how difficult it was to come up with SEVEN different outfits? Way difficult. I think I was pittin’ out in every video. Cute.

    Think this would still be bomb without the honey?

    Could you make it with boneless ribs?

    You’re amazing. The End.

      Noooo!!! Pinterest is the work of the devil and will steal your soul.

      “Get behind me, Satan!”

      *ahem*

      Sorry about that…

    1) this looks incredible. I just ate breakfast, and now I’m hungry again. Thanks a lot. 🙂

    2) good luck this weekend!! Will be following on the twitter machine. Can’t wait to watch you kick ass. I’m jealous – North Central doesn’t go until week 4 and I’m ready to go NOW!! In “hell week” now for training, which is probably also contributing to my hunger. In which case, this recipe should come in handy. Thanks a lot, for real this time. Bonus: hubby doesn’t like coffee, so I might not have to share.

    Wow, those bags are nice!! Now I want one. I use a Budweiser gym bag that I won in a singing competition, lolol Both of those recipes look so good! I’m so behind on making your recipes. It’s freaking depressing…I need to use up all the meat I have in the freezer before I buy anything else. I’ve been too lazy (well, more like busy) to cook the past week. Thank God tomorrow is my day off!

  4. Laura says:

    Good luck this weekend! I heart you and your random rants! And your food rocks my face off too!

  5. Stephanie says:

    Can’t wait to watch the video – LOVE having cooking videos to watch during lunch.

  6. Rob says:

    OMG…cannot wait to try this one, short ribs are one of my most favorite of things.

  7. Rachel says:

    Freaking LOVE your blog. What kind of food processor do you use?? Please say one that isn’t going to cost me my first born…

    1. juli says:

      I use a cusinart 9 cup food processor. it’s kind of expensive but so so worth it

  8. Lori Welsh says:

    I have been coveting a LuLu Lemon bag myself! I just can’t spend the dough on one though!

    Question: What brand weight lifting shoes do you recommend? I have been looking at the Risto’s and the adidas.. Any thoughts would be appreciated!

    so the recipe in the again faster video looks awesome! and let me take a wild guess that you like the word “incorporate”? Haha And you should look on ebay for a lululemon bag (or just about anything) I’m sure you could find a great deal on there. you’re fantastic, love your blog on here and again faster (“Embrace Them Thighs” made me really appreciate my thunder thighs and made me want to push myself to gain muscle)… so basically you’re awesome. TheEnd. 🙂
