Me + Bok Choy = LoVe

ok so I have to admit, up until yesterday I had no idea what this even was.

Passed this by soooooooooooooo many times at the supermarket, not even giving it a second glance.
Well, low and behold I had a recipe that called for it. I was like.. OMG what can I put in its place, I dont wanna eat that.. GROSS!!

With great hesitation and serious doubts I bought some....I mean GREAT hesitation!! lol

So the stare down began...

ok so I had to start cooking, the tummy was speaking to me.... :)

So I had to go on the internet to see how cut this green monster up....

Well, basically I chopped it like a head cabbage, taking off the bottom.

I dived into the recipe and got to cookin... ok so... everything is smellin mmm mmmm good!!

I added the red wine vinegar and the oyster sauce mixture and poof it was pretty much done.

ok people... let me just say...never judge a book by its cover, never judge a vege by its name etc etc etc blah blah blah... This was one of the most amazing meals I have had in a long time!!! So much flavor and a bit of spice from the red pepper flakes.. oh yeah baby!!

and guess what .. this is from the Eat Clean Recipes.. mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

Having leftovers for lunch tomorrow.

I will posting the recipe under the tab up top that says.. On My Plate!! Enjoy!

Month of January Workout Minutes - 1920

Stanky Bras

yes, lol you read that right!!

ok now i know we all sweat when we work out, but cmon!!

What is wrong with my bras?

Do you ever have that problem, where you wear your new bra or even a sports bra a few times when working out and then all of the sudden it reeks!

These stanky ass bras smell like they have drug across a mens locker room floor.

GAG!!

I wash it .... I wear it .... I gag!

soooo... I wash it... I bleach it... I wear it... I gag!!!

I seriously think the sweat is somehow embedded into the mere fibers of this

over the shoulder booby holder.

The minute I start to even faintly perspire.. BAM smells once again like I have

been laying in a pool of nasty sweat.

So then... dancing my ass off there in Zumba.. makes me wonder.. god if i can smell it, who else can..lol

Soooooooooooooo Miss Stanky Bra.. if you cant just hang out and smell decent... YOU MUST GO!

FORGET BRAS>> I AM USING DUCT TAPE FROM NOW ON!! HA!!

Who else has this problem... I know I am not alone..

you know who you are... lol

Do you too have stanky gym clothes...

I have a DREAM...From Couch To 5k!!

I actually have a gream though!! :)

I want to run a 5k!! Its been a DREAM/GOAL for some time now.

Who woulda thought.. ME RUNNING!!

Well, its time for me to stop doubting myself and GO FOR IT!!

I think its time to start getting ready. I would love to be able to run a 5k by end of summer.

I am beyond excited ...

even more excited that a friend/Rythmix Instructor, Julie has decided to do it with me.

She might be dragging me across the finish line, but Whatever it takes.. I will FINISH!!

Gonna buy me a cool outfit and some new tennies and get busy with this.

Heres where I am getting my help...
