Oprah's Favorite Things : My Picks

Thank goodness for the weekend!  I usually don't post on Saturdays, but since I'm doing NaBloPoMo this year, I'm excited to share more fun content that I usually leave off my blog.  Today it's going to be something completely random- we're talking about Oprah's Favorites!

Every year, Oprah releases her list of "favorites" just in time for holiday shopping.  Recently, these favorites have been on Amazon, making it really easy to create a wish list and buy everything all at once.  I went through the list (which you can find here) and picked out my favorites.  I hope you enjoy!


Talbot's Puffer Vest - I love wearing vests this time of year, and this one is simple but comes in lots of fun colors!
Pasta Pot - I make pasta all of the time, and this would make my life so much easier
Mini Bluetooth Speaker - How adorable are these speakers?!  They're pretty afforadable too, so I might pick up a pair for myself!
Powerbeats3 Wireless Headphones - I've been wanting to get a pair of wireless headphones ever since I got the iPhone 7

Orthaheel Relax Slippers - I am a slipper fiend in the winter and these look so comfortable
Harry Barker Furry Friends bucket - Selma needs presents too! Love this little set, complete with toys and treats
Soma Water filter - I use a Brita filter, but this one is so much more chic
Emi Jay Candy hair tie - You can never have enough hair ties right? I love this kind and the colors are adorable!
What did you like the most from Oprah's Favorite Things?
Did anyone watch Oprah growing up?  I've never seen an episode of her show!

    I had no idea her favorites were all on Amazon- so convenient! And is it bad that I was disappointed when i realized the ribbon candy was really just a hair tie? haha

    I remember thinking I was so cool when I was old enough (but not actually) to watch Oprah after school. And then I went through a period where she really annoyed me, but lately I have been back on the Oprah train big time. Her favourite things always seem excessive to me but I always read through her picks out of curiosity!

    I haven't seen Oprah's Favourite Things this year but that water filter really is so chic!

    I love the idea of that pasta pot too as it would eliminate the need for filling my sink with colanders/strainers!

Relationship Rules I Broke (and WEDDING PHOTOS!)

Image
Happy Thursday everyone! Today I have a different type of post to share today.  I don't talk about relationships or my dating life much on the blog, but I'm switching it up today!  I got married last Friday, and I thought it would be fun to share some relationship rules that I broke while Dan and I dated. I'll also be sharing some wedding pictures!  We got married at the Butterfly Falls at the Hidden Valley Inn in Belize (more on the Inn in upcoming posts!), and the pictures turned out absolutely amazing.  Since we had a "just the two of us" ceremony, there's not much to talk about the actual wedding.  In lieu of a full post on that, I'll be sharing some background information on our relationship, along with wedding photos and some #ThrowbackThursday pictures.  I hope you enjoy (and I promise- back to running stuff next week!) Guys are immature, so date someone older I've always read in magazines (which, by the way, have the worst datin

Towpath Half Marathon Recap

Image
Hi everyone and Happy Tuesday!  Today I'll be recapping my race this weekend, the Towpath Half Marathon.  Overall, I had a great experience at the race and would definitely recommend it!  Before I dive into the mile-by-mile recap, I just wanted to give some overall thoughts and reviews of the race as a whole. The Towpath Marathon features three races- a full marathon, half marathon and 10k.  All three races are in the Cuyahoga Valley National Park, but all run different courses.  The half and 10k start at the Brandywine Ski Resort, while the full starts at the Boston Mills Ski Resort (where the expo is held). The course is mostly on a narrow crushed limestone trail that is relatively flat.  There are a few sections that were paved and a few small walking bridges that provided the only real inclines.  It's really hard to pass people (particularly near the turn where it's two-way traffic) since the trail is so narrow. There are a lot of water stations, and each o

Review- Group Power

Image
Happy Weekend everyone!  Today, I'll be doing a review of another group exercise I do at my gym called Group Power !  Let's get right into it. First off, the description in our program guide is "This 60-minute barbell program strengthens all your major muscles in an inspiring, motivating group environment with simple, athletic movements such as squats, lunges, presses and curls." I don't exactly look like this when I'm curling..but you get the idea! Let me tell you, this is one intense workout!  For the entire 60 minutes, we're constantly moving and lifting and by the end I'm a pool of sweat!  We work out all the major muscle groups - Legs, Chest, Triceps, Biceps, Glutes, Shoulders, and Core with light to moderate weights.  We also use a step to do exercises like chest presses and split squats. For each song, we focus on one muscle group, and do a variety of exercises with lots of repetitions, set to the beat of the music.  The tempo of the
