WooHoo!

Good Morning ladies and gents! 


I hope everyone is having a good hump day so far!


I FINALLLLLLLLLLY got those pesky 4lbs off from my trip home! YAYA! So now it's back to getting the next 30lbs off.


I'm sticking to it. NO. MATTER. WHAT. 


So. Last week was pumpkin mania in my house. Bascially I just added pumpkin to things that sounded delicious.


Pumpkin Chili with cheese and avocado! :)

Pumpkin Pancakes with honey

I have a teeny tiny bit of pumpkin left, and just found a recipe to use it in oatmeal. Sounds like a good breakfast for tomorrow! yummm! :) 

So this is slightly off topic, but one of the things I love most about living in Costa Rica is that it is perfectly normal to go "steal" things from someone elses farm. Probably when you're walking through it as a shortcut. (I know I said no more shortcuts, but I meant alone.)

You can seriously get anything, for example: tomatos (like the yummy cherry ones), bananas, plantains, mangos, avocado, lemons, limes, and other delicious fruits that I don't know the name of in English. 

It saves some serious money. I will definitely miss this. 

So I need to throw out a disclaimer from my last post. These things happen a lot. Whenever I walk somewhere, people offer me rides. I only take them if I have seen them at least around my town. That guy was just creepy in the comment of dating an American. The other thing is the dogs. Dogs here are c.r.a.z.y. They run after motorcycles and cars. Bark at you even if you walk by the house every single day and give them treats. The dog part was the scary part. The old man wasn't. Next time I'll explain better. Sorry if I gave you a fright!

Exercise update:

30 Day Shred has stopped. I got bored and was not wanting to do it. I'm going to try to mix it up with other exercise.

 I'm going to start C25K ( http://www.coolrunning.com/engine/2/2_3/181.shtml ) this week and see how that goes. 

So that's whats happening for right now. Next week I'm going to the Close of Service conference in San Jose! We're staying at a fancy smancy hotel that has an awesome gym and a pool to swim laps. I will be taking advantage. Plus they have amazing breakfast and lunch. So I will HAVE to go to the gym.

Happy Hump Day!
