Speaking of Mother’s Day…any plans?? I’ve been taking my mom out for High Tea for the past 5+ years…and I think we’ve exhausted most teas in Boston.  Hmmm.  Or if you’re a new mom (I feel like I know a lot of those right now), what are you doing different this year??

P.S. I’ve finally found a protein powder I like!!  Seriously it felt like the never ending quest.  Luckily Whole Foods carries some individual packets of a few brands so I could try them.  I never wanted to buy a big tub of something I had no idea if I liked. 

Well after all that I did finally go out on a limb and buy a container of this…

It’s Whole Food’s 365 brand so it was pretty economical.  It has 16 grams of protein and tastes great to me!!   I hate the taste of artificial sweeteners, and usually can’t even stand Stevia either.  This one does have some Stevia, but it for some reason doesn’t bother me.  I’ve found it nearly impossible to find a protein powder sweetened with a regular sweetener/sugar. 

Also love my new blender!

It’s basically the Cuisnart version of the magic bullet.   

Small, compact, easy to clean, and multiple containers to use. 

I’ve been enjoying these after my Crossfit workouts.  I also keep is SIMPLE:  frozen berries, milk or Almond Milk, and protein powder.  Done and Done.

Less than 2 weeks to Reach the Beach!!

I had a lovely 8 mile run Sunday!  There is a paved bike path from Lexington to Bedford…I thought the paved path went all the way into Concord.  It doesn’t.  It changes to an unpaved rail trail. 

So more than half of my run was like this.  Very pretty, scenic, but probably won’t do that again alone…there were a few times I found myself by myself on the trail.

Either way I felt great through the 8 miles!! 

Nice full post jam-packed with randomness…Happy Tuesday!  Possible discussions…  Mother’s Day ideas??  Fav protein powder??  Running trails??
