Hello! Let’s play a game! It’s called “Home Yelp”…
How to play: You cook something delicious. I eat it. Then, I text you a certain number of fun emojis to say how much I liked it.
Yeah? Want to?
Okay. Maybe you’re too busy to drop everything and cook for me right now (we can set a time for next week) so I have another game idea – “Would you rather… “
Let’s do a round of Would You Rather for Runners based on my little day:
Would You Rather for Runners
Would you rather…
a.) wear ONLY running clothes for 1 year
b.) have ONLY 1 running outfit (top/bottoms/socks/sportsbra) to year for 1 year
(I’ve gotta update ya on my resolution to get dressed everyday!)
Would you rather…
Eat ONLY bread as your carbs for 1 year
OR
NOT eat any bread for 1 year (but you can have grains and pasta – no pizza or anything on bread either)
I finally bought Dave’s Killer Bread after seeing it on food blogs since 1986. I’ve tried it at events but never actually bought a loaf because it’s pricey… but it’s delicious!
Would you rather…
Eat dinner with someone who
a.) Didn’t eat any animal products
b.) Didn’t eat any carbs
These are chicken stuffed peppers from Home Chef. My friend is 100% on board with all those meal delivery services.
Would you rather have…
a.) chocolate cake
b.) chocolate ice cream
This is that awesome HUGE chocolate cake from Costco. I cut out a big piece to sing my mom happy birthday on Sunday and added sprinkles. It’s amazing cake. 5 stars!
Would you rather eat…
a.) strawberries
b.) mixed fruit with chili and limon
b.)
Monican… I don’t like tajin or chile on my fruit! I think that’s surprising since I love spicy food… but nope!
Would you rather have
a.) savory breakfast
b.) sweet breakfast
Me: Usually savory in the winter like eggs and toast or tortillas. And I go for sweet smoothies in the summer. But I made the above bowl of oats today. I love toppings!
Would you rather use your shoes…
a.) as a pillow
b.) as a cup holder
Life hack: Using your shoe as a cup holder somewhere it could get knocked down = smelly genius!
Would you rather have a $100 gift card to…
a.) Costco
b.) Trader Joes
Monican… Here’s my latest Costco grocery haul. Confession – I ate the whole package of aidell’s meatballs. I think there were about 428 in there! I’m not sure if I should be ashamed or proud.
Speaking of Costco…
They have a green house for sale!! A whole green house. What? I kinda want it.
Would you rather watch…
a.) The Food Network while working out
b.) Paint dry while working out
I was watching the Pioneer Woman while doing some strength training yesterday but I usually watch Bravo.
Would you be a…
a.) unicorn
b.) mermaid
Lucky Charms just added a new marshmallow to their cereal! Unicorns!

Question: What’s your favorite choice from this ‘would you rather’ game?
Run SMART Goals
Fill out this form to get the SMART Running Goals worksheet to your inbox!
There is only one choice for #1 for those of us living where there are 4 seasons. You can’t be stuck with winter running clothes in the summer or vice versa, so…. it has to be only running clothes. One year without going out to dinner or to the opera or to any fancy parties… oh well – a runner’s gotta have priorities!!
1. Do I get to wear different running clothes for a year? If so, I will wear them for a year. Let’s be real, I do not do laundry enough for just one outfit.
2. Whatever choice allows me to still eat pizza.
3. Probably choose to eat with someone who does not eat animal products. Wait would cheese be something they could not eat? Do their eating rules even apply to me in this scenario? If they do not apply, as long as I get cheese…
4. Cake. I gave up ice cream for Lent.
5. Strawberries
6. Savory
7. Cup holder, I have done that before.
8. I think I would go with Costco but would need Sam’s Club because there is not a Costco around me but I think they are similar.
9. Food Network
10. Mermaid, definitely.
11. Discount for sure but I am in Oklahoma and probably will not be in California anytime soon. Boo.
That was fun!
Great questions!
1. Wear only running clothes for a year
2. Eat only bread for carbs
3. Didn’t eat any carbs
4. Chocolate ice cream
5. Strawberries (although the latter sounds amazing!)
6. Sweet breakfast
7. Cup holder
8. Trader Joe’s
9. Food Network
10. Unicorn
11. Not run at all? (Don’t kill me)
I think I’d rather only have 1 running outfit.
eat other carbs
eat with someone who doesn’t eat animal products. I feel like that’s much easier to work with than having to avoid carbs…I could be wrong about that.
Chocolate ice cream, though that cake looks amazing
Strawberries
savory
costco
Food network
unicorn
rather be a mermaid! Or maybe a fairy.
I’d rather…
– Only wear one running outfit for the rest of the year
– Not eat bread for a year (rice is my jam!)
– Eat dinner with someone who didn’t eat any animal products
– Have chocolate cake
– Eat strawberries
– Have a savoury breakfast
– Have a $100 gift card to Trader Joe’s – you have to bulk buy everything at Costco!
– Watch Food Network while working out (hey… motivation)
– Be a unicorn. I’d hate to be half fish LOL.
This was fun! 😛
