The Weekly Blush

Shenanigans from April 18 - 24 , 2011.

Food: I've been discovering that bloggers are such a creative bunch, and my Weekly Healthy Meal Plan has been a hit in my household because of this! The latest menu plan is up, with a focus on eating more BEAND and PEAS and this week, the recipe I am mostly looking forward to trying is the Ethiopian-Style Chickpeas Stew (by The Daily Dish) - chickpeas never looked so good!

Last week on i{ate}A{pie}.net, all the product reviews were of BEVERAGES! Metroelectro Micronutrient Water was the star of the show, but Almond Dream Unsweetened Almond Drink wasn't too bad either. Izze Sparkling Grapefruit Juice Beverage was just so-so and Steaz Zero Calorie Iced Teaz (Half & Half) Review was pretty meh (see how I'm dropping all these technical terms on you)?! This week in reviews: BREAKFAST FOODS!

Workout Music: Last week, we had a guest post: Fit Things We Love {EatDrinkRun Edition}. Thanks to the amazing Shelby of Eat Drink Run! She shared her top-secret products for taking care of herself before, during & after her workouts.

The playlists were super hot last week too (I know - I say that every week)!

I Only Speak in Funky Beats had some funky dance & electronic tunes to make you dance on the elliptical & the Clear Out Workout Playlist is just insane with hip-hop music to listen to on a run.

Working on mah Fitness: No races for me last weekend, so the good old legs got a break from the intensity. With May fast approaching, I'm thinking of doing 2 half-marathons & my 1st triathlon. Here's what my schedule looks like:
Apr 30 5K (hosted by my running club)
May 01 Spring Sprint 5k Trail Run
May 07 Jog for Jugs Half Marathon
May 15 Superhero Half Marathon
May 21 Jerseyman Sprint Tri (600m swim, 16.4mi bike, 5K run) OR
May 29 Cooperstown Sprint Tri (800m swim, 11.6mi bike, 3mi run)

Fit Links: I shared my favorite fitness related links over at IntheGym.net on the weekend, but here they are again in case you missed 'em:
