What kind of weather is this for a bake sale!? :(
Luckily, we have an indoors option today! We will sure need it- it is pouring out there! I hope that doesn’t deter too many people from coming to the market…I have a feeling I might have A LOT of leftovers!
Breakfast was a Green Monster as usual!
Ingredients:
- 1.25 cups Almond Breeze
- 1 T Natural PB
- 2 wilted organic kale leaves
- 1/3 cup blueberries
- ice
- Kyolic liquid garlic
- Hemp-Maca-E3Live Protein Powder
- Amazing Grass Berry Superfood
It tasted a bit off today, I think it was the wilted kale. When kale becomes wilted it gets bitter!
Bad news- Eric’s computer is not working! Geeze, what is our bad luck with computers this week!? He said his C drive is fried basically. :( Which is not good news because I still need to print my new flyers this morning and some info sheets before the bake sale.
Cupcakes complete and boxed up!
I am going to squeeze in a quick workout, shower, and finish of the promo materials. Rush rush rush!!!
I’ll never forget what Eric said to me a few years ago:
“Ange, you are the most beautiful when you are HAPPY.”
I think of those words to this day.
Let’s face it, when I was constantly obsessing about my weight, I was not a happy camper. I had zero GLOW. No vibrance. NO inner MOJO!
Obsessing about calories, food, and the scale depletes your inner goddess and takes away all of your amazing potential, don’t ya think?
When I finally let go of that misery…things started to fall into place in my life.
Positivity breeds positivity!
One GOOD and happy day breeds another.
One strong week leads to two and three, and a month.
Soon Happiness and an obsession-free lifestyle becomes a HABIT and replaces the nasty ones!
Of course there will be rocks and bumps and potholes. We all have bad days, bad weeks, and bad months. But if we keep at it, we will be on a steady path UPWARD making progress. That is what it is all about, right?
Baby steps!
Rome wasn’t built in a day and you can be sure that you won’t be able to free yourself of your nasty habits in a day either.
It took me a few years before I finally felt secure in my road to health. But every single day was worth it.
Nothing worth while in life is a QUICK FIX.
Progress takes time. Patience is a virtue. Now go find your inner MOJO!
Smile at a stranger today. Hold your head up high, and shake that fine bootay of yours!

Don’t forget to check out Mara’s awesome gveaway!!!

Today’s question: When are you your happiest?
Honestly, when I am 40+lbs lighter. I try not to obsess over my weight but when you’re 80-100lbs over weight it’s hard.
your thoughts on chia versus salba?
Thanks!!
Thanks Angela! Sounds good..can;t wait to hear what you have to say :)
Thats such a beautiful photo! My Eric has said the same to me.
I am my happiest when we are in Ireland. There is something about being there that just lifts my spirits to a whole new level.
The cupcakes looked amazing!
I am my happiest when I am spending time with my husband and our little doggie. It’s the little things in life that make me happy. I don’t think that you need to spend money to be happy. The best nights are the ones that we spend at home cooking a meal together.
what a sweet comment from eric… i want a guy to tell me that too! ;) you are seriously glowing and it shows – so many people love reading your blog for that reason! those baked goods look incredible!!!!!
this post put a huge smile on my face.
thanks for the wise words, they’ll definitely help to keep my thoughts positive when i feel like being a big lazy negative girlie.
hope the bake sale goes well!
Eric really sounds like a great guy, that’s really sweet! :] I love your little photo!
Best of luck on the bake sale! I look forward to the recap on how it went later! ;)
I’m happiest when my boyfriend can send me e-mails or call me. Even though we’re so far away from eachother, he brings me an immense amount of joy, and he’s the greatest support system and best friend (not to mention, freaking hilarious and fun to talk to!) a gal like me could ask for!
Eww. That’s so lovey-dovey. I hope nobody puked in their mouth after reading that, haha. But it’s true. :)
I am happiest when I am laying my head on my mom. I can feel her love.
have you seen the cupcake holder transporters? Jenna from the office has a friend who makes them…just an idea.
writing from dariwn australia headed todili timor. I am fulfilling a life long dream to vol.overseas. Iam happy :)
each night I writedown 2-3 things of the day and tom that are positive. this has helped so much, especiallywith binging.
Michelle- Yes I actually have TWO of the holders and I totally forgot to use them! lol. Ah well… next time!
this post reminds me of a photo/quote i just posted the other day..

:) it’s so true!
Just catching up on my weekend blog reading.
I am my happiest when I am away from the distractions of life. Mainly I am the happiest when I am away from the TV, the computer and the phone. I love going running on a trail where I am all by myself with no outside distrations. It is the same feeling I have when I am on vacation…especially out of the country where my phone doesn’t work. Where there really is nothing else to do but to enjoy the people you are with and the natural surroundings you are in. I love just making myself truly live in the moment and eliminate any outside distraction.
It gets a bit difficult to do this often or for a long time in our technology world.
Happiness Awaits
You are beautiful, no doubt….and I think your strength is the most gorgeous thing about you as well as your determination to make your bakery a huge success! Keep up the good work- you inspire me everyday and I thank you for that!
