How’s your Wednesday?
Mid-morning I enjoyed some of my mom’s super ripe organic apricots. We like to note that they’re local and organic since that usually costs more in the store – but when you grow it yourself if feels free!
I started to dig into these Lentil Chips around lunch time. They’re not good. 
So, I just made lunch.
I don’t mess around with my bucket ‘o salad.
or my love for cheese lately…

Ask a Monican #38
I posted this yesterday, but am sharing it today. If you want updates on my YouTube channel subscribe over there 
Monica talks about:
1. I run all the time and am not losing weight. Help?!
2. Who is hotter – Joe Gorga or Mauricio?
3. Do you get nervous before blog events?
Regarding question #2:
This is Joe Gorga from The Real Housewives of New Jersey
This is Mauricio from The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills

Who would you pick?
Got a question for this Monican? Email me or leave it in the comments below!
No contest. Mauricio hands down. Joe makes me throw up in my mouth a little.
I love the Ask A Monican editions!!!!
Mauricio – no question. Joe is cute but, like you said, he’s a bit short. He he he!
Eeee! I JUST saw this! Thank you so so much 😀
I like Joe Gorga, he makes me laugh, but Mauricio definitely wins the hottie househusband award. I have a question for you – how do you keep from getting nervous/sick before a race? I get so sick to my stomach (nerves) with anticipation, excitement, etc. Any ‘calming’ tips?
Mauricio for the win!
Mauricio. Not only because he is WAY hotter, but because he is more my type in general. They both seem like great husbands and dads, though. Gotta love free food. I’m now at the point where I go to see my parents twice a week, rather than my normal once, just to stock up on produce from my dad’s garden.
Joe is a cutie but I’ve always had a crush on Mauricio! He’s just such a hottie and seems really nice….plus his accent sounds way better than Joe’s!
Aww, Monica you are so damn cute! 🙂
I have to admit to liking Joe and Melissa. I think they are cute. But Mauricio wins the hotness contest.
The Kidless Kronicles
I have a question for you, Monica. How can I avoid getting sick right before the race? Or when I begin training more? This happens to me all the time. For instance: right now, when I was planning to be doing the RW Summer Running Streak, I have caught a cold. (Usually it is a common cold or stomach flu.) I have enrolled to my first half marathon in July, with a goal of just finishing the race.
I struggled with the scale plateau for so long… I had to really shake up my routine and amp up the intensity to see the changes I was looking for. The plus side- my running splits got a lot faster!
Oh, and Mauricio 🙂
Joe Gorga for sure. …..KIDDING!!! Mauricio is my favorite househusband ever 🙂
Thank you for answering my REAL HOT HOUSEHUSBANDS question!!! I would say Joe Gorga for a one night ??? and Mauricio for marriage or both.
Mauricio!
Aw man, I got so excited about those lentil chips when I saw them, and was so sad to hear that you didn’t like them!
for some reason your cheesy bread looks AWESOME. uhh i wish i had pizza right now haha boo.
ummm mauricio!
Mauricio! I also really like Paul on RHBH, he cracks me up.
Mauricio hands down!!
Ugh! The infamous “stuck scale” debate. I have fought with this same issue: working out all the time, but no dent in the scale. I guess counting what you eat really is harder than I ever thought it’d be. It’s just that after running X amount of miles I feel like I can treat myself! And therein lies the problem huh? I guess I should put these Cookies N Cream chex mix down huh? (P.S. they are awesome!).
I can take the chex mix off your hands if you want 😉
“I have a big personality and I want a big guy… we’ll leave it at that.” HA! I literally lol’d. And you are not unpleasant in person. I can’t wait to see youuuuu!!
HA!!!!!! Busted when Ben sees this.
What chandra said.. ha!
I tried those chips too. Nasty. They leave a weird burning on my tongue…? haha
Mauricio!
Mauricio, hands down!
Mauricio!!
Mauricio is smokin’ hot!
Mauricio! He seems like a really nice guy.
Mauricio!
Mauricio fo sho 😉
There is no debate whatsoever….Mauricio wins hands down!
