HI HI HI.  LOOK AT THAT SPREAD ^^^ LET'S TACO BOUT IT! ???

some days i just can't deal.  like days when i make really cheesy food puns.  or days when i make the most delicious taco bar that can be easily adapted to make whole30 tacos!

can we talk flllllllavvvvor?? because i swear to you, even though i already posted about my homemade taco seasoning a while back, i'm NOT a taco snob.  i'll pretty much eat any taco.  especially out of a truck at 3 am in a fremont parking lot (well… i guess only if it's taco flair – aka the only mexican i crave that comes from a food truck).

  1. I BOUGHT THE ROSE GOLD COMPUTER.  damn.  i literally couldn't stop myself.  oy.  now i have to wait TWO weeks.  kill me now ?
  2. HEY. do you see that cute little click-able graphic in my side bar (diagonal from this number, under the instagram feed) the one that says “click here,” you should totally click there and check out the work i did today in organizing all my whole30 posts/information into one place for all you may whole30-ers (good luck!).  i'd LOVE to know your thoughts
  3. i SMACKED my head against a sharp corner of a coffee table last night because i was laughing so hard at frankie's brother.  i have an egg on my head and everything.
  4. frankie won't get off my case about making him pina coladas right now.  oh oh oh – side note – we stopped in a liquor store yesterday after the NYCFC game and there was a dude giving free samples of coconut rum.  it was heaven
  5. it's day 7 of the bikini series and my body is NOT amused… can't wait for day 8.
  6. this is life – diagonal cuts are necessary on sandwiches.
  7. TV. I FINISHED FRIENDS.  i was up until 2:30am last night watching.  i even stayed up later than frankie.  yeah.  now i have like nothing to watch… quantico i'm love love loving it! but that episode really made me hate caleb's dad even more.  oh and i KNEW shelby was not evil… or at least i'm hoping still.  scandal i hate hollis doyle. i think that might be all i have to say on that one.  also, abby needs to check herself.  i'm over her.
  8. this literal box of pizza.  i can't.
  9. i'm also obsessed with all things royal right now.
  10. this is how i feel every day i go to workout.

  1. it was so beautiful this weekend!  today i was outside almost ALL day.  frankie and i ran another race this morning and then we had his soccer game at 2pm on randall's island and it was so nice.  i totally got a ton of sun.
  2. did any of you go to the boston marathon?  i wish i could have gone.  i died at most of these signs though!
  3. is anyone else doing the bikini series with tone it up?  i'm so excited to start!
  4. i have a new addiction to HGTV.  have we talked about it? i'm obsessed with Chip and Joanna.  also THE PROPERTY BROTHERS.  a friend got to meet them the other night and got me a signed copy of their new book.  i'm dead.
  5. i'm thinking about getting business cards for the blog to hand out when people ask for my recipes.  what do you think?? is that too pretentious?
  6. sometimes i have to look up things on the internet that make me feel like a complete idiot.  point A: crosswise vs. length-wise (p.s. thanks buzzfeed)
  7. TV. oy let me tell you! we caught up on everything.  SCANDAL – it sort of feels like its one of the old seasons.  also, Liv's “DONT EVER CROSS ME AGAIN” line killed me.  i felt like abby really needed to be put in her place.  QUANTICO – i still can't get over how much i love this show, but like why is the season so much longer than How to Get Away with Murder?  GOT STARTS TODAY.  i can't even. so excited.
  8. THE FLOWERS RIGHT NOW ARE KILLING ME. they're all so pretty.  so pretty everywhere.  THE TULIPS.  tulips are my favorite and they're everywhere.  i can't get over it.
  9. also, in case you were on the fence about these basil mayo turkey sandwiches, you should know that when frankie read the post he immediately texted me and asked for them for dinner on Tuesday night.  they were just as good as he remembered.
