Good morning!
I hope your weekend is off to a great start!
My Saturday morning kicked off with scrambled eggs.
I prepared my scrambled eggs with a splash of milk, shredded mozzarella cheese, peppers and onions.
A smear of jelly was also added to my bagel after I snapped the above picture because I need a little something sweet after all that savory flavor.
The plans for the day now include a morning walk with Sadie, a trip to the gym and something very Ocala-ish.

With Ocala dubbed the “horse capital of the world,” Ryan and I decided we should do as the Ocala folks do and go horseback riding today. I purchased a Groupon for a 90-minute ride a few weeks ago and we’re excited to put it to use this afternoon.
The only problem is that temperatures are supposed to hit 90 degrees when we’re on the trails… and pants are “highly recommended.”
I am not about to wear jeans because I’m pretty sure I would have a serious case of swamp ass by the end of the ride, but I worry that more breathable pants will cause me to have one heck of a sore hiney.
If you’re a regular rider, do you have any recommendations? Yesterday on Twitter a few of you recommended dri-fit pants, leggings or black yoga pants with boots, which seems a lot more breathable than jeans, but I don’t want to look like a fool or be in pain because of thin pants.
This is the ensemble that I’m currently considering:

Someone remind me to bring a wreath and some fresh blooms to drape around my steed.
Clearly I’m a a lost little horse on this one, so hopefully I’ll figure something out. It’s not like the ride is going to be very advanced (on the form I said we were “beginners… adventurous beginners”), so I’m sure I’ll be fine one way or another.
Off to walk Sadie!

Happy National Doughnut Day! Who’s celebrating with me? Just in case you want to party in the kitchen this weekend and celebrate Doughnut Day at the same time, I highly recommend making my mom’s homemade doughnut munchkins. They were always a huge hit at sleepovers growing up. They’re unreal and super simple! I made sure [...]

When I was a student at the University of Central Florida, Hurricane Charley hit and caused some pretty intense damage on campus. The UCF gym was affected pretty badly and for months students didn’t have access to the amazing workout facility. UCF worked to move weights into other rooms around campus, but everything felt very [...]

I am so excited to share today’s volunteer story with you guys. My friend Allie emailed me when I first put out a call for volunteer stories and I loved that her story involved volunteering at a place I absolutely adored in Orlando: The Orlando Science Center. I visited the Orlando Science Center a handful [...]

Lunch was super simple, but that doesn’t mean it lacked flavor. I made myself a roast beef wrap with cheese, hummus, spinach and mustard and served it with a sliced apple. Now that the roast beef is out of the way, let’s get to the meat of this post. (Anyone catch that pun? Muhaha!) Changing [...]

This morning I awoke nice and early and headed off to a power yoga class. I was really anxious to try out the new yoga mat that I purchased a couple weeks ago and arrived ready to stretch and sweat. After considering all of your advice on which yoga mat to buy, I ended up [...]
