It as my birthday on Monday, and I didn't do too much, just hung out with a few friends and went out to dinner :) It was quite a nice night :) I got a few great gifts also, some gift cards to Whole Foods, which is good because I spent all mine from Christmas :)
I also got a beautiful new pink duvet for my bed..looks something like this
I LOVE pink! Anything pink! Might I add, I found this pic quite awhile ago, and it is so totally my dream kitchen...
Click for bigger beauty!
Ya, girlie I know, but I LOVE pink.
Dinner yesterday was super duper delicious! Baked sweet potato wedges and chicken breast. YUM.
Tonight was equally delicious, being a baked sweet potato, grilled salmon and some sauteed spinach.
Then off to Whole Foods I went to get a few necessities. Mainly Oatmeal!! Almond Butter and I got a ton of Lara bars and Luna Bars. Grabbed some yogurt also while I was there...I really really wish Canada carried Greek Yogurt! We don't have Fage, Oikos or Chobani :( Sigh..maybe one day! Also got some Allegro coffee beans..so good! and some Almond Breeze. The gift cards came in handy for this haul :)
So last week I started the P90x workout..and all I can say is..WOW! These workouts are so AMAZING! I LOVE them (well the ones I've done). They are tough, but I feel so good after I do them! so energetic. I absolutely LOVE the Plyometrics workout, It's easily my fave. Then the Shoulders, biceps and triceps workout. Amazing! I did the yoga workout last night, wow, that was a brutal one. Very advanced yoga moves, therefor very tough..but I did it, I finished it :) Felt great after wards.
I highly recommend this workout system if you enjoy working out at home (as I do). It's great so far. Tomorrow I am going to try the Ab ripper. Ugh, should be interesting. I'll let you know how it goes ;)
So I am off for a nice, hot bubble bath, and to check out some more of your blogs :)
I leave you with a few pics from B day night..nuthin too exciting :) Enjoy.
It was a new dress, but I didn't really like it too much :( What do you all think?

Happy Belated Birthday sweetie! Sounds like a great day, especially with the Whole Foods cards and new Duvet! So pretty!
Hmm... I'm going to agree with you on the dress. I actually think you did a perfect job matching the style of your hair with the outfit for a semi-retro look, but I think the dress could be a bit more form-fitting. Either way, you look absolutely GORGEOUS!!!
Love you!

omg you look so beautiful! sometimes it's best just to celebrate with a few friends and have a tame evening :). nice new duvet! and WF gift cards are the best gift ever. you know you can make your own greek yogurt right? in case you don't know how, i blogged about it a while ago, it's super easy and cheaper than buying it already strained: http://moretolifethanlettuce.wordpress.com/2010/01/05/iphoto-iam-going-to-kill-you/
Hey,
Love your blog! I adore that duvet - it's so cute!
I agree with the first comment; if the dress was more form-fitting, I think it would look better.
I'm totally jealous of your hair - you look beautiful!
I'll definitely keep reading your blog. :)

Happy birthday! :)

Congrats on your start with P90X! I'm on day 26 of my P90X workout journey (check it out at my blog, TREK2BEFIT.COM) ! Today is Core Synergistics for me. Good luck and keep pushing play!
happy belated birthday, hunii! i'm so happy to see that you're back to blogging; we've all missed you but sometimes life gets busy, i understand.
my mom did power 90x for a while and absolutely loved it. she did the ab ripper along with some kind of strength training and let me tell you, her abs are insane! (my mom is a very fit one, if you can't tell. :P) i'm a yogini personally, but i think power 90x is a great system since i've seen what it did for my mom. i hope you enjoy the ab ripper as much as she did :).
i think you look beautiful in whatever you wear. great pics and i'm happy you had a wonderful birthday!
have a lovely day!

first of all, you are so beautiful!! you look fabulous in that dress. hope you had a great birthday! i love all things pink too LOL. and those sweet potato wedges sound awesome
Girl you have to try Liberte 0% Greek Yogurt from Whole Foods - it is newly available and amazing!! (I've been eating it with everrrything, evidenced on my blog, haha)
You look great! My BF does P90X and I always meant to do it with him but I hate working out at home. I did put the Ab Ripper on my iPod and did it at the gym for a while though but I got bored of it after a while and customized+incorporated with my own ab routine. Now, I mostly just do planks.
i love your dressss :) then again, i love all black dresses i think.
i went to whole foods today! amazing how much one person can spend in there.

Yikes I missed your BD! So happy Birthday delated, lol.
You ROCK this dress. Don't tell me otherwise >___<!! <3 <3
And you're just WAY too pretty to not be ''blogcatured''...;) I'll be damned if I don't/forget!
xoxo
I think you look great in your dress! I LOVE your hair. Wish mine did something like that. I personally hate P90X :( I think because I pretty much despise working out in general and that stuff is HARD. Glad you like it though :)
love the hair love the hair!!!!!!!! how did you get it to have so much body? i usually curl mine on "day old" washed hair it holds better! looks like a hottie-with-a-body dress and fun time!
YOu look GREAT! What a special day!! I always run out of my whole foods gift cards super fast. I can't believe CANADA doesn't carry Greek Yogurt. We'll have to ship you some.
Cheers,
LC
