It's been another week and so here I am :)
This past week flew by. Seriously. It started Monday when a present arrived all the way from Sandy, UT...
WAHOO THANKS MOM!
Monday was a dreary rainy day. My good friend took me down to the pier to pick up this baby, but the truck was late due to the rain. We needed to kill some time so we did what anyone else would do at 9AM on a rainy Monday....went to Federal Donuts on 2nd and Federal for some hot, fresh delicousness!!! (Lina had never been)

| Indian cinnamon and lavender vanilla! |

| She loved them :) |
Such a good friend to give me a ride then wait it out with me in the rain. Thanks again, Lina! I was feeling under the weather this week so I decided to get on the juicing thing - need those anti-oxidants to stave off cold/flu/allergy bugs! I am obsessed with FUEL restaurant's Hulk juice so I recreated it for my first one...Delish! Then I started getting fancy: beets, carrot, pineapple, ginger, aloe, cucumber, kiwi...so many options! Here are some I made tonight and my first juice, the hulk!

| So so good! Addicted! |
 |
| Carrot and Beet juices! Love using old kombucha bottles! |
The weather cleared out eventually so I did some backyard yoga one day after being too lazy to trek over to Old City for yoga class... At least I did it, right? I went to Easter dinner with my friend Kristen tonight - we got Pho from my favorite place near my house. So yummy! As Kristen dropped me off after dinner, she surprised me with an early going away gift - a pineapple corer/peeler!!!!

| Deck yoga > no yoga |

| Newest kitchen gadget! Thanks Kristen! |
It is the niftiest kitchen gadget - it peels and cores the pineapple in 30 seconds! Plus the juice collects inside on the bottom of the pineapple "shell" so you can use it for juices, smoothies, etc. I immediately opened it and used it to peel the pineapple in my juices pictured above! She is a great friend and is so supportive of me in my studying. She cheers me on and reminds me that, "I got this". Which brings me to this week's quote:
I don't always agree with Lou (crazy old man - but his bowl season picks are solid every year!) but this is great. Attitude has been so important this last week. I wasn't feeling well but found ways to stay on track and be positive about what was happening. This is my last week for studying. I'm scared, excited, nervous, and sick all at once. I am so excited to finish, but more importantly, I want to finish this week strong, confident, and ready for next Monday. We're so close, we've worked so hard, just 7 more days.
Hasta Pronto-
L
