1. My day was ridic. I had my first client at 7am and my last at 8pm. So even though I had to bow out of KB early I felt like I was on my feet and fairly active all day.
In other news – KB burns about as many calories per minute as running!
2. Tip: If you ever want to play a dirty trick on someone roast broccoli in their house when they’re not there. They will spend 5 hours looking for the source of the stink. And you’ll be licking your ketchup covered broccoli fingers in happiness. True.
The age old question – why is bread and butter the best thing?!
3 1/2. The OC Fitbloggin local meet up is this weekend!!! We’ll be meeting at Yogurtland around 2pm on Saturday at the Irvine. Let me know if you want in!
PLEASE GIVE ME MOTIVATION TO RUNNNNNNN I have 7 miles and I haven’t run that long in quite a while. Dear lord it’s already 80 degrees here in FL!!!
that was a bit dramatic…i did it, and it wasn’t so bad 🙂 I even made good time.
Good for you!!! Running in FL is ridic this time of year. You’re better than me 🙂
Umm…. I love your run through Redlands shirt!! I’m totally from there and run it every year!
I love that you are meeting at Yougrtland for Fitbloggin’. 🙂
I have roasted broccoli before, but never experienced bad smells. Maybe I’m immune?
Are you sure your nose works?
lol, I think so! maybe it’s because broccoli has been my favorite vegetable in every form since before I could talk? I don’t know, because I’m usually quite sensitive to smells.
I totally ate broccoli last night and brought in the leftovers to work for lunch. Sorry coworkers for the stench but the broccoli was really tasty.
Seeeeeeeee you Sunday!
DANG. I’m out of town this weekend :l
🙁
Last night I baked some fish in the oven and steamed some broccoli in those microwavable steam bags. When I opened the bag of broccoli, my four year old daughter walked in the kitchen and asked “What is that smell?” I told her it was broccoli (which by the way she loves to eat, cooked or raw). “Well,” she said, “It smells like a dirty diaper!” and walked away.
She has a 2 yr old baby brother, so she knows what a dirty diaper smells like. After that, I could not eat the broccoli. I did bring broccoli and fish for lunch today so maybe I can eat it now without the lingering smell in the kitchen.
broccoli = stank. doesn’t mean it doesn’t taste good sometimes. but i haven’t cooked it in my tiny studio apartment yet for that exact reason…
Who knew KB burned as many calories as running per minute! interesting!
I need to get me a BodyBug. Like… now.
add brussel sprouts to the broccoli and the stench increases…plus it make your pee really stink..sorry TMI!
Have you tried the sugar cinnamon butter??? It is spreadable crack..I swear:/
I do it old school style just sprinkling sugar and cinnamon on buttered bread. Just like mom used to 🙂
Roasted broccoli + ketchup = Love!
Mmmmmmm… 🙂
Kickboxing is incredible with calorie burn, I burn between 600 and 850 calories in a 60-75minute class.
Once in college I left some broccoli in a pot from dinner. My roommate and I slept, went to class, went to work, etc. I came home around 6pm the next day and our apartment smelled like something had keeled over and died!! (I turned around and walked out.)
HAHA the broccoli thing is cracking me up. Last year, when we were tying to sell out house, I roasted a bunch of broccoli and sprouts for dinner. Well, we got a call about 10 min later that someone wanted to do a showing. Yeah, needless to say, they didn’t want a house that smelt like flatulence. 🙂
Ha! They probably referred to it as “the fart house” in their notes.
You burn that many? I ran seven miles today and there’s STILL no way I burned that many. Me = JEALOUS.
As always, you’re my fave! 🙂
Why do you think there’s no way you burn that many? My body is obviously not a calorie burning machine, so you must burn the same or more. Seriously.
roasted broccoli smells almost as bad as boiled cabbage.
that’s all i have to say about that.
