things that are my jam

Confession: I am rocking some post vaca blues this week. Being back at work is hard. I have said it before and I will say it again - why can't I be a stay at home girlfriend?! I don't think that is too much to ask. With that being said I have a lot of great things cooking right now even if it leaves me with no free time. So to keep it simple, stupid I am stealing out of Ami's playbook and sharing things that are my jam this week.

//First, is this birthday present I got from Bradley. Now it is not the only thing I got, but it might be favorite....I am also not sure what this says about me because he also got me a Kate Spade purse....And yet the cast iron just makes me a happy, happy lady.


Since I was gifted it we have made every meal with this bad boy.

//Also my jam - My new team at VillaSport. Even though I feel like I am a tad bit over my head right now, I am so, so excited for this opportunity to put my personal training to use. Better yet, I am working along side  some fabulous people! You hear so many horror stories when it comes to the fitness industry and working as a personal trainer, but so far I have felt none of that. It's a pretty good feeling to have - especially when I am such a newbie compared to all my teammates. It's a little frightening, but mostly exciting....but definitely frightening....

//This video of tips on how to perform the kettlebell swing!



//Lastly, this jam is my jam.

Ok, that is all I have for today... I have to finished up everything here at the big girl job and leave early for more new hire training! Pretty much what my schedule looks like from here on out :) 
Cheers!

I'd have to say I'd be more excited about the Kate Spade bag, but I ALSO would have some excitement for a cast iron skillet. No judgment here! :)

Ohhh I have been wanting a cast iron skillet! How fun! The Kate Spade purse is fun too, of course!

I am glad that your training experience is going well!

Cast iron is way better than KS!!! I'm a huge purse girl, but you will adore your cast iron. It's my favorite tool in the kitchen.

I have the didn't get to take a vacation blues, it's weird when you start getting excited about adult stuff. I love the silverware my grandmother got me for Christmas a couple years ago and it still feels weird.

MakeMeUpMia said...

That pan is totally worth getting excited over!

Chelsea @ Delipsch said...

Cast Iron is the way to go, period. end of story. cheers.

Joey Hodges said...

Oh gosh! We got like 5 cast iron skillets for our wedding (try carting all of them back to the store at once to exchange--those suckers are HEAVY)! I've never actually used the one we have, though. It intimidates me!

Kate @ Another Clean Slate said...

Kate Spade and an awesome pan sounds like the best of both worlds to me as far as gifting goes!
