Go With What You Know

April 20, 2010 by Julie 10 Comments

As usual, Ryan and I spent the first few hours after work entertaining Little Miss Sadie. We always do something active with her, whether it is a long walk or a trip to the dog park, so she can expend some of her never-ending energy.

Today we opted for a trip to the bark park, as Ryan calls it.

Loving Dog Park Time

Sadie had a ball and ran around like the mad dog she is!

Dinner

After watching Sadie burn all those calories, Ryan and I felt the need for some food! Wouldn’t it be nice if watching someone workout was an actual workout? 😉

On the menu for tonight: Monterey Pasta Company’s spinach ricotta ravioli.

A little less than a month ago Ryan and I attempted to veer from our beloved Monterey Pasta Company in favor of Whole Foods ravioli and experienced an extreme flavor failure. Tonight we stuck with our old stand by and enjoyed every last bite!

Ravioli Bowl

I guess sometimes it’s a good idea to go with what you know! 

I paired my ravioli with steamed broccoli for added veggies and volume. The addition of copious amounts of veggies to my pasta dishes really helps me feel satisfied on less pasta, which helps prevent the feeling of pasta belly bloat.

Of course everything was topped with marinara sauce and Parmesan cheese.

Ravioli + Cheese + Sauce

Veggiefied

Delish.

Wedding Planning

This weekend really thrust me into wedding planning mode. I seriously want to figure everything out now!

Today I made an appointment for Saturday to meet with a potential DJ. Also on my to-do list for this weekend is meeting with possible officiates and hammering down our save the dates. Once those decisions are made, I’ll feel much better!

New Addition

I added a “Wedding Planning” tab to the top of the blog with links to several of my wedding-related posts. Check it out if you’re interested!

Be sure to follow PBFingers on Instagram and Facebook!

I'd love to connect with you! I am always so grateful when you let me know you tried one of my recipes or workouts and tag me in your photos or updates. Thank you so much!!!

    Hey Julie: just wondering, is there an easy way for you to explain how to add a “tab” to the top of your page?? I have been trying to figure it out, and have had no luck so far.

      yes! just select “pages” in wordpress (located on the left-hand side of your dashboard). click “add new” at the top of the page (next to the “edit pages” link). i hope this helps!
