I always get so excited when a new Bestowed box arrives in the mail. I know I’m going to open it to find so many delicious and healthy treats!

Bestowed was kind enough to send me a free box for November, and this one was especially great – full of some old and new favorites.

If you want to try Bestowed for yourself, use discount code HELLOTEN105 to get your first box for $10 (normally $19)! This code expires on 11/30.

fun.

I love when my friends send me funny random things throughout the day.

…like this weird animation of me that Jessi made. I still have no idea how or why she made this but, I’ll take it. Haha.

And then there’s the Male Models And Cute Kittens Doing The Same Pose “article” that Erica posted on my Facebook wall. She really knows me too well…

Also on the fun front – on Wednesday night we had a clothing swap at my place for our last Community Group. We all walked away with a ton of great new clothes, and we donated what was left (about 3 trash bags full!) to Covenant House.

food.

To add to the girliness of the evening, I made an old favorite - a batch of Nutella Cake Batter Blondies. They were a whole lot of ooey gooey chocolately success, to say the least.

As for a new favorite – I’m loving these Little Green Handcrafted ‘Shroom Burgers. I always find store-bought veggie burgers to be way too small, and these are actually the size of a real burger. My go-to lunch lately.

(yes, we initial our food. haha)

fitness.

Every time I stop working out first thing in the morning…I pretty much stop working out all together. Why do I always forget how amazing it feels to exercise before work?! Back on the bandwagon with some strength training + treadmill intervals.
