This weeks Dorm Room Workout Series installment is absolutely my favorite. Basically because I'm obsessed with Netflix and LOVE watching my shows while working out!

Recently I've been watching Baby Daddy and The Ranch, both of which I highly recommend. Along with re-watching, again and again and again, Friends and Gilmore Girls!! You can't go wrong with classics like that!

Speaking of Gilmore Girls, who is excited for the new Gilmore Girls coming to Netflix in November?!? This girl is!!!

Speaking of Gilmore Girls, this past Friday I was lucky enough to live close to one of the Luke's Diner Pop Up Shops! Thankfully my Mom was able to tag along and help with the boys, who were uncharacteristically well behaved!

It's that time of the week again! It's Fitness Friday here on the blog and I have to say today's post has me so excited. I have tried many different protein bars in my time and I have to say I've never been truly satisfied or happy with any of them. I was lucky enough to try one of these bars a few months back and I have to say I was so impressed that I needed to get more.

I was so excited about the opportunity to team up with RX Bar and share with you all the amazingness that these bars contain.

First and foremost they have very few ingredients, all of which you can pronounce and immediately know what they are. Personally, that is a huge plus in my book!

They proudly show that their products contain NO B.S. and again, huge plus! I love to find products that not only taste good but I can feel good about eating them.

They have so many different flavors to choose from, here are a few that was able to sample.

If you are interested in trying out a protein bar that won't leave your mouth feeling dry and chalky, but leave you feeling full and satisfied, go on and grab yourself an entire box now OR you can head to your local Trader Joe's as they just became available in every Trader Joe's across the country!

Let me know if you're trying them out OR if you've had them in the past, I'd love to hear feedback!!

If anyone knows me they know that I have a huge weakness for buying as many pairs of sunglasses as I can get my hands on.
I'm not into paying high end prices for my glasses, however. I cringe at spending more than $10 honestly. With two little ones running around I just can't bring myself to pay any more than that on the off chance that they get their tiny little hands on them.
I've been lucky so far and haven't had any accidents, even with my $10 sunglasses!

I was fortunate enough to receive a free month of Ditto's Endless Eyewear program a little while back and today I wanted to share with you my thoughts on the process and product.


Bottom line, they are a great company with incredible customer service and response time.

I never felt like I was being pushed off or just given an answer to get me to go away. They were caring and wanted to make sure my experience was a great as it could be!

Being that I don't ever spend any real amount of money on my sunglasses I was a bit intimidated to choose a pair that was worth a lot of money, however I figured go big or go home, right?!

I chose a Prada pair which you can see HERE.


With a retail value of $385 I was giddy and nervous when they arrived.
Needless to say I immediately fell in love with these sunglasses. I did, however, make sure to wear them carefully when the kiddos wouldn't be going crazy all around, just to be safe!

I got to try out a few more pairs at the Go Blog Social conference and let's just say, I want them all, all the time!

After I placed my order the sunglasses arrived within a few days, even faster than I could have ever expected. Then when I was ready to send them back I was able to use a prepaid packing label that came with the glasses. All around such a simple process.

For $25 a month you can change out sunglasses whenever you want. Making it simple and convenient to wear designer brands for a fraction of the cost!

I look forward to taking part in this program here in the future for sure, once the kids are a bit older and I won't be as afraid of little hands getting a hold of these gorgeous sunglasses!

So go on and check out the website! You won't regret it!

So if you're anything like me you have a ton of old wine corks stuffed away in a drawer somewhere just collecting dust.

I had been collecting for a few years now and have never really had anything to do with them, however I refused to throw them away.

I finally decided to drag them out and actually do something with them.

I had seen these letters that were made using wine corks all over Pinterest and beyond. I had never really paid much attention to how they were made, but it couldn't be too hard, right?!

Right!

I grabbed my glue gun, my wine corks and a small "L" I had leftover from another project that just didn't pan out.

Now I am going to share it with you in hopes of inspiring you to make one of these yourself or for someone you know!

What You'll Need:

1. Wine corks, quite a few!!

2. Letter of choice. I had an "L" I had purchased from Michaels for a couple of bucks.

3. Hot glue gun.

What You'll Do:

Step 1: Gather supplies.

Step 2: Put the hot glue on the back of your wine corks and start placing them on the letter.

Step 3: Show off and display!

And voila!!

Seriously, this is SUCH a simple and fast craft. I couldn't be happier with the results and it fits the aesthetics of our kitchen just perfectly!

What are your go-to crafts or things to do with your left over wine corks?!

If you give this a try please let me know, tag me on any social media or shoot me an email with your final project! I'd love to see them all!

Cheers!

Acai Smoothie Bowls have been taking the world by storm here lately.

I have seen them all over Instagram these past couple months and decided I wanted to try my hand in making my own at home.

I'm an avid smoothie drinker as it is and this just seemed like it would be a perfect recipe for me to try out.

I was right. I'm obsessed with these Acai Smoothie Bowls!

My boys are obsessed too so I have to make a double batch OR make it when they're napping or in the other room and sneak in a bite here and there.

I mean, what's not to love... It's so pretty!

...Yes I did take this photo! If you want to use it, that's totally cool I just ask that you link back to my blog and this post with it! Thank you :)

What you'll need:

For Smoothie-

1 Cup Almond Milk

2 Packs Simply Balanced Organic Acai Berry Puree

1 Tablespoon Honey

1/2 Banana (reserve the rest for topping)

1/2 Cup Fresh Blueberries & Blackberries

2-3 Frozen Strawberries

5 Frozen Mango Chunks

6-7 Frozen Pineapple Chunks

1/2 Tablespoon Ground Flaxseed

1/2 Tablespoon Whole Chia Seeds

For topping-

Granola (mine is Home Made... Working on recipe post, stay tuned!)

Blueberries

Blackberries

Banana

Dried Coconut Flakes (Unsweetened)

Drizzle of Honey

Kiwi

What you'll do:

Step One : Measure out all ingredients and put in blender

Step Two : Get to blending

Step Three : Pour into bowl once well blended! This makes one bowl, two depending on how hungry you are

Step Four : Top with goodies

Step Five : Eat immediately & enjoy!

**Here's what the packaging for the Acai Smoothie Packs look like**

I got them at a local Target.

Once I ran out I went to a different Target store and they weren't there so I guess it's hit or miss.

Lucky there's so many Target's all over! :)

I hope you enjoy making this smoothie bowl!

Share your thoughts on this recipe in the comments & feel free to send me pictures of your finished product as well!

Cheers!
