Next Stop – Belize

Well I already told you why you should plan that second vacation (a.k.a justified planning my second trip of the season).  Now it’s time to tell you where that second vacation is going to be…

BELIZE!

After doing some research and scouring the travel blog-osphere we decided on this beautiful Central American destination.  If it’s anything like Costa Rica then how can we really go wrong?

How We Decided on Belize

We first came across a Groupon for a Belize Getaway to Ambergris Caye.  Ambergris Caye is an island off of Belize that sits in the Carribbean.  I had never heard of it before, but quickly learned it was recently voted #1 in the Top 10 Islands of the World by Trip Advisor!

Crunchy Maple Almond Butter

Crunchy Maple Almond Butter?!  I hope that title made you click on this post.  It would definitely make me click.

Today was a great Monday.  Mainly because we gained an extra hour of sunlight tonight.  It was pretty crazy how much it affected my mood.  I rushed home after work, threw on my running shoes, and headed out for a run.  It was so, so nice to catch the sunset and breathe in 45 degree air! Literally, an instant mood booster.

Now on to that Crunchy Maple Almond Butter that made you click in the first place.  I can’t believe I didn’t buy a food processor earlier.  I’ve been dishing a lot of money for fancy almond butters over the past few years.  Little did I know all I needed was a few ingredients and this amazing machine we call a food processor.

Friday Link Love

2012-03-13 16.03.46

Happy Friday!  I hope everyone is looking forward to the weekend.

That was a silly statement.  Who doesn’t look forward to the weekend?  
My Friday started with a trip to the dermatologist to get a mole removed.  It wasn’t bad at all besides the fact that I now keep remembering that I have stitches on my chest and they’re getting really itchy.  Oh and also that I can’t do any heart openers or backbends for a week in yoga. Boo.

Anyways, I wanted to do a Friday Link Love post today because I came across some pretty awesome posts and articles this week that I just had to share.  (My blog doesn’t show links very distinctly…just click on the title of the post to get there!)

Hope you enjoy!
A Letter To My Sisters: Our Value is Not Based on Clicks: Such a heartwarming post that really reminds us to live life through our eyes instead of our smart phones.  If you have any pre-teens / teenagers in your life, definitely a great one to share.

8 Things Remarkably Effective People Do Every Day : #1 is my favorite “Visualize Your Success.”  I learned this in my Yoga Teacher Training – Weekend Two.  We called it “Feel it real.”  I’ve been practicing by actually visualizing myself teaching yoga classes.  It definitely helps with my confidence and motivation on my path to getting there.

 
19 Things You’ll Appreciate Only If You Studied Abroad: I swear this article could have been written by me or my friends who I studied abroad with.  It is dead on! #4, #7, and #16 are my favorites.
