Hello! I’m in a great mood because I had a few minutes to squeeze in 3 Zumba dances between clients today They were all new-to-me songs, so I wasn’t rocking it very much, but I did my best!
Before I left for work I had a handful of cashews (3x what is here). I bought the biggest container of them a few days ago and although they’re not the best nut, they’re my favorite. Despite extra health benefits, I’m NOT eating walnuts. No Gracias.
I came home to satisfy my craving for peanut dressing with a side of salad
Ben joined me since we’re going to be separated this weekend (when I’m at HLS!) and like to suffocate each other as much as possible before we’re parted. He busted out the chips and hummus…
While I did some damage on the watermelon (read: ate it all and slapped his hand away).
I have a few errands to run before my next 2 clients! See you in a bit!

I heart the cashews. Ummm, dill pickle cashews are so strangely good
runeatrepeat says
Oooh! I haven’t tried those yet!
Amber K says
I have to say that cashews are actually one of my least favorite nuts. Peanuts, walnuts, pecans, pistachios, and even almonds (even though I can’t have them) are yummy 🙂
AshinMT says
I have never commented- but i just have to say that i really like to think of my cashew addiction as another place i get my healthy fats. Theyre like butter, yum. Also, my co-op (so maybe a whole foods or something?) has thai- curry cashews and they are the most amazing thing on the planet.
Ps love your blog!

I FREAKIN LOVE cashews, they are my favourite nut! I buy this trailmix from Costco and it is chocked full of dried cranberries, yogurt chips and cashews; it is the best!
runeatrepeat says
Oooh! That sounds like my kind of trail mix!
Carrie says
Yay Watermelon!! So this might be an insane TMI kind of question, but do you get digestive issues with all the watermelon you eat? I eat about a quarter to a half a melon a day (I also have a slight obsession with the wonder fruit) and I’ve been feeling all kinds of icky some days. Like bloated and grumbly. I even Googled “side effects of watermelon” to see if I was the only one…and it turns out all sorts of people experience watermelon issues. Any insight on that?!
Sorry this is soooo TMI 🙂
Cheers!!
runeatrepeat says
I get bloated not grumbly from it sometimes, but only if I eat way too much of it. I think it’s a volume thing not a watermelon thing though because it only happens when I get crazy with it. And that takes a lot.
Michelle says
Walnuts are definitely gross!
You guys are too cute:)
I will be at the HLS this weekend as well, so I hope to meet you!
runeatrepeat says
Yeah! Hope we meet 🙂
Heather @ Get Healthy with Heather says

Mmmm cashews are the best! Especially when covered in chocolate!
runeatrepeat says
Amen!
Sara says
Love cashews and lunch dates with my husband! Do you know when you’re going to do your Zumba certification? (You were planning to become an instructor, right?)
runreatrepeat says
Yep, I’m doing it the end of this month!
Sara says
Cool! Looking forward to hearing all about it.
Trainer Kjirsten @ Balanced Healthy Life says
haha, your walnut comment cracked me up! I love walnuts especially on salads paired wtih feta or gorgonzola cheese! So delish! Have a great reat of your day!
Alexa @ Simple Eats says
I would never want to be around you with a watermelon. That’s all.
Julie @ Shining From Within says
Cashews have TONS of antioxidants & help prevent colon cancer, so eat up!!
janae @hungryrunnergirl.com says
I don’t share my watermelon either! Wish I was going with you to HLS!!!!
Rosa - Fitness, Food, Fulfilled says
I don’t care for the walnut either. But my favorites are pecan, then almonds, then the peanut. I go nuts for nuts!
You guys are cute with your togetherness. My husband and I are the same way and our friends tease us all the time because of it. Whatever!
Jack Sh*t says
Had slivered almonds on a pasta dish at Italian restaurant last night and it was surprisingly good.
Walnuts aren’t bad with gorgonzola and fresh figs.
runeatrepeat says
I would eat anything with gorgonzola and figs! Anything.
Brittany says
I love your love for watermelon! haha its sooo good
Lisa says
Two thumbs up for cashews. They are right behind peanuts as the best nut ever.
Hannah says
