I went out with some friends last night and we had a great time. We just went to a local restaurant / pub and they had a live one-(wo)man band and the game playing as well. Not typically my scene, but with the right company, any place can be fun! I found this picture on my phone this morning from last night and have no idea what it is. See? Told you, good times!

Have you ever had a red pear before? I hadn't until my sister gave me hers and it was delicious. I'm not sure how I'll go back to green/yellow. Unlike other pears, this kind is less grainy and smoother with a sweet taste. Yum.

Last night I had one of my closest friend's over to celebrate her birthday. I told her that I would bake whatever she wanted for her birthday dessert and she chose a chocolate mousse cake. Something I've never made. Turns out, chocolate mousse cake can be pretty darn overwhelming, however, I did it! It feels like such an accomplishment because while I enjoy being experimental with cooking, baking is more my sister's hat and something altogether different. I will be posting the pictures and the recipe in the next few days as it turned out really good (at least everyone said it was really good...).
Today is her official birthday and we are celebrating today by going for a morning break at the cafeteria at work. Happy Birthday J!

While leaving the gym a couple weeks ago, a trainer had set up a table by the front doors and was handing out dixie cups filled with a green 'energy' smoothie she made. I, of course, grabbed one because (a) I just finished a workout and was famished, and (b) I'm always up for trying something new.
Turns out although it looked nasty, it tasted delicious.
She had kindly printed out the recipe and had a stack of 'em for people to take home (with, of course, her personal training coordinates). A few days later I made my own but it didn't turn out green like hers, and I had to improvise a bit because who really keeps almond milk and two kinds of yoghurt in their fridge at the same time? Not this girl.
Healthy Smoothie:
* Frozen banana
* 1 Cup of Milk
* 1/2 Cup of Yoghurt
* 1 Cup of Frozen Berries (I used strawberries)
* Handful of Spinach*
Blend
Drink
Enjoy.
* I know what you're thinking, 'Spinach?! In a smoothie? Really Amanda? Yuck!'
but seriously, you don't even taste it. And it's good for you. So do it. Do it good.
