this past week has been one of my busiest of the semester and it was exhausting. wednesday was the worst day and i may have hated the world that day (so i'm sorry if i came into contact with you) but the week improved greatly after test two of two was over yesterday. a good workout, healthy food and long phone calls with my mama did the trick and i am feeling much less stressed (coffee and a major to-do list helped out too). i am going to be quite busy from now until wednesday with school, alpha chi, and baseball games but if i can make through the week, i get to see my parents on friday! where oh where will we dine this time they are in town?!
today has been spent doing things i enjoy. i woke up and had a delicious, simple breakfast of granola, kefir, banana and sliced berries. i then went to Barre3 and it was quite the workout! i was quaking and shaking! after barre3, i went to target, where spring was in the air! i picked up a few easter goodies (i know its early but i just couldn't resist) and some spring decorations. after a trip to the grocery i dived into this recipe: King Cake Cupcakes in honor of Mardi Gras being next week. i had no idea how much of a process making king cake was! i am hoping they turn out good (i wouldn't know yet - still waiting on them to rise).
for dinner tonight is a simple but favorite recipe. i go by Eating Well's recipe for southwestern sauté with salsa grits but i always end up modifying it to whatever i feel like! its really good and i do always top mine off with a fried egg for some extra protein! tonight, i am adding some sliced avocado on top for some healthy fats and fiber!
one thing that was on my radar for today was Sarah Jessica Parker's collection for Nordstrom. the shoes are absolutely beautiful, but a little bit out of my college-girl budget. still, who wouldn't want a shoe inspired and named for carrie bradshaw?! look at the collection online and check out my favorites below! there are so many gorgeous shoes that it was hard to pick favorites, but there is definitely a shoe for every occasion!

well, this post has gotten lengthy but thanks for sticking with me until the end! though it is one of UT's biggest social weekends, Boxing Weekend, i am staying in tonight! tomorrow i am working the baseball game at 2 (so if you are in knoxville, come out and see our vols who are undefeated as of right now!). i also have a big project due next week that i need to get a better understanding on so that is on my list as well as starting to study for my two exams next week. i think my teachers banded together to see how miserable they could make my life but in 15 days i will be on a boat in the bahamas! happy friday y'all and enjoy your weekend!
xoxo,
