What I'm Loving Lately - {eats, reads, randoms}

Eats: still eating my favorite pumpkin pancakes just about every day (and no they don't taste like pumpkin pie - also amazing as waffles!

recipe found here: www.facebook.com/fitwithheart

um...also - did anyone say S'MORES COFFEE?? how can you go wrong combining two awesome things..and i'm thinking an iced version would be FABULOUS.

SPA water - was feeling all fancy the other day and decided to mix it up a bit..cukes in the water - anyone else do any fruit/veggies in water? great for skin

Reads: JUST finished Abundance Now by Lisa Nichols. loved it. All about recognizing the abundance you CURRENTLY have in your life and changing your mindset so that more will come. Changes the way you think about money, income and your goals. So often we let fear stand in the way of knowing that we deserve more. Wanting what we want sometimes is viewed as selfish. Her story is amazing and I highly recommend this read.

Fashion: because i'm so fashionable you know...ha! But seriously what i'm loving is BICbands! Standing for Because I Can (empowering right?) This company was started when a fine lady named Sandy started making these bands for herself for her running - well turns out friends and family wanted to buy them too! So she started fundraising for her first half marathon and her business has grown from there! The profits have gone to the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society and she has raised over $1,000 for them! I recently became a BICchick - an awesome community of women that are SO positive and their journeys and story continue to amaze me as I get to know them better! ANYWHO about these bands! These headbands actually STAY IN PLACE for runs, workouts, lifting and just while working my crazy nurse life. They have a velvety texture that helps them hold their place. They even come in different head sizes and a ton of band widths too. oh - and they are adorable! It's super hard to pick because of all the variety of patterns...colors...glitter...themes - good luck choosing! Head to www.bicbands.com to check them out and the code MartiBIC will save you 10% at check out! Tag me at @mhoekstr so that I can see what you get!

Who I'm always loving... - this guy right here! He turned the big 2-8 on Valentine's Day! We went out to a hockey game with friends and of course grabbed a few drinks beforehand too. He really is the best and don't know what I would do without him!

fish balloons...because duh!

This stuff right here: Shakeology Boosts Digestion: been adding this to my pancake recipe lately because well sometimes you just need a bit of "digestion help" and it helps keep things regular! I've also added it to my smoothies or to tea! Can't taste it, it contains all readable ingredients and um..well it works! (not in a bad way) - seriously - if you need help in this area this is so worth it!

your turn! what are you loving lately?
