Week of First's

We got our first snow of the year on Monday. I'm wondering if it'll be our only snow too! The roads weren't too bad so I went to work but only saw 3 clients. 3 is better than none though = )

Andrew got Thurs-Sat off of this week so I wanted to take full advantage of it. It's very rare we both have weekends off together. Friday night we decided to go see Safe House. I thought it was really good and recommend it. 

Saturday morning I went to CrossfitNWA for an all woman workout. People also brought shoes/clothes to sale. I got a pair of Reebok Crossfit tennis shoes and some lifting shoes. I WAS PUMPED!! They didn't fit the girl that bought them so I got a great deal on them = ) I told Andrew it's sad because now when I think about shopping it's to get workout clothes. I have crossed over to the Crossfit Cult (so my mom calls it ha)! 

                        Getting ready to start our run

                                   Med-ball sit-ups

Before our workout I decided to try rope climbs. It's a rope hanging from a 15ft. ceiling. Well I FINALLY got it for the first time and got so excited when I got to the top I kind of freaked out. I'm not a big fan of heights as it is, plus just being excited because I finally did it. So I just slid back down the rope with my hands instead of using my feet to get back down. The outcome was this

                  Yeah it feels about how it looks! OUCH, at least I learned my lesson

There's a couple of new restaurants I've been wanting to try in Fayetteville. I showed Andrew the list and we decided on Vetro 1925 (look it up on facebook). It's a nice little italian place on Center St. off the Fayetteville Square. OMG people, make a reservation and GO!! We got there right at 6 but they didn't have any tables open so we got a table in the bar area. Good thing because the place got packed. I got gnocchi and Andrew got some pasta with pine nuts, peas and gorgonzola cheese. Andrew was a little upset at first because none of the pastas have meat unless you want bologna in it. He didn't think $16 for bologna pasta was a good deal ha! 

Well we got our meals and he changed his mine, because yes it's that good! Forgive the green tint of the pictures- the area in the bar has changing lights (sounds weird but it's cool).

After dinner we met up with a friend from HS and my friend Drew from grad school. I'm mad because I only took 2 pictures!

I tried a new recipe tonight. Zone Mexican Quiche- it's really good. Mine is still kind of runny but the top was burning- just proves I'm not a good cook ugh! But it still tastes great

Mexican Style Quiche- Zone Block Count: 1/4 of Pie (3 blocks Protein - 1 block Carb - 3 blocks Fat)

Ingredients:

- Frozen Bell Pepper mix (depends on person how much pepper to use)
- 1 Large onion
- 1 tsp Crushed Garlic
- 1 can Chopped Green Chiles
- 1 can Diced Tomatos, drained
- 1 Jalepeno chopped (optional)
- 10 servings Egg substitute (2.5 cups)
- 2 servings 2% Mexican Cheese
- Guacamole
- Sour Cream

Directions:
1.) Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In skillet, cook frozen bell peppers (fresh works as well, however, the frozen ones are cheaper and you don't have to chop them!), onion and garlic until cooked. Drain off any liquid.
2.) In 9x9 square pan, mix bell pepper/onion mixture, green chiles, drained tomatoes.
3.) Pour eggs over vegetable mixture. Sprinkle cheese over egg mixture.
4.) Bake for 40-45 minutes at 350 degrees, or until egg mixture doesn't jiggle when you wiggle it. I let it get extra brown when I don't use a crust.
5.) Serve with guacamole and/or sour cream to round out fat blocks.
