Thank GOD It’s Fall !
Facing east for the moon risebackyard garden … Just another West Texas Friday night!
As much as ☼summer☼ is my favorite season (after all, that’s when my birthday takes place), I’m making the most out of autumn ~ especially going outside for crisp, fresh air !
I’m also all about Starbucks seasonal flavors☼summer’s fruitiness to these comfy delights :
My venti cold cup always comes in handy … for a discount & a drink to last me all ☼day!
Apparently, I was my local barista’s 1st customer to order a Toasted Graham Frappuccino ! #StarbucksLovers ♥ #trendsetter
Furthermore, football has kicked off into full swing!
Here are a few of my favorite things for fall …

More knock 2 muscles with 1 stone as we tone …
Our triceps and thighs !
Enjoy these moves that target both at the same time:
Seesaw (20 reps each side)
On your side, bend the bottom leg and extend the top leg while placing the palms of your hands on the mat/floor with your arms facing each other 45*
Then press your arms to engage your tris while you raise your top leg to engage your thighs ; switch sides per set
Clam Dips (20 reps)
While seated, ring the soles of your feet together in butterfly/clamshell position and the palms of your hands on the mat/floor with your arms straight back
Then bend (dip ) your elbows to lower your back to contract your tris while you bring (press ) your thighs together
Butterfly (20 sec)
Keep your soles together and stretch out your thighs by lowering them to the ground
Stretch your tris by alternating your arms behind your head, holding the palm of the outstretched arm
Flashback Friday : The mild weather of early ☼spring☼ (now) and pre-♣fall♣ (then) plus being in *beast beauty mode* takes me back to my 10-year h.s. reunion when I worked those *tris* and *thighs* (with my military brat bestie Nora

Remember my student’s science fair project about ♫music♪ effect on plants ?
Science Project Poster : an elementary eye candy version of the presentations that I teach and the research experiment that I’m conducting!
I still have his yellow hibiscus that went without ♪music♫ in the experiment.
Now that we’ve entered ♣spring♣, this hibiscus can soak in the ☼sunshine☼, bloom and blossom!
Today, we had a hail storm hit , but I didn’t have much notice to remove it …
Before … Will my hibiscus withhold this hail storm??
At least this fortunate flower’s still in tact in the aftermath of this April shower !
After … YES, indeed, she did survive without withering!!!
Friendly reminder: Earth Day is on April 22nd!

TGIF! April Showers with a Chance of … Scrambled Eggs ✌
From ☼sunny☼ to stormy, I’m honestly relieved to sleep in on this rainy day because we all need downtime (something that I took for granted and recently realized is a necessity in order to thrive and survive).
Before I made myself this brunch:
Grilled Cheese Garlic French / Texas Toast : French Toast with egg wash (Almond Breeze Coconut Milk blend with cage free egg scrambled) * grilled cheese (Kraft Colby Jack marbled Big Slice) * garlic garnish (McCormick Perfect Pinch Garlic & Herb ) for Texas Toast
I also fixed my family theirs:
Chill cats waiting patiently with anticipation of good grub …
Breakfast of Champions : Meow Mix Soufflés “with REAL Chicken, Egg and Garden Vegetables”
Sharing is a skill !
Simple and Savory is the Flavor of this Friday!
Final note : good thing that we chowed down our hearty meals before the heavy hail hit! I saw our neighbor cat sprint across the front yard to safe shelter!

Happy Friday the 13th !
Homemade Chicken Noodle Soup is where it’s at!
We’re never too old to need our mothers ~ so if they’re still with us, then let’s be grateful!
Add freshly-squeezed OJ to the mix for Vitamin C to combat the cold , and I’ve got it made in the shade !
My own ♥Mommy Aya♥ cold that took its toil and my voice this ♣Spring Break♣.
As a retired Registered Nurse after over 4½ decades, my Nanay attended to me for the first time since I was a child!
Chocolate = the perfect cure to cheer me up, in the form of my mom’s Nutella brownies
I think that my need to be put on bed rest (while my ♥A&A♥ †GOD† ‘s way of tellingslow my roll …
Despite my week ☼off☼ from teaching and tutoring , I had still been on-the-go in the recent wintry weather with my traveling , researching , reporting and photographing !
This juicer doubles as a pitcher !
So much for tracking miles on a fun run or hitting the driving range … for now!

Happy First Ash Wednesday of Lent 2015 !
Starting out the day with fiber and flavor from this fruit-&-berry-packed steel-cut oatmeal !
We can’t go wrong with our meatless options …
Then my greens & dairy in this veggie soup + P.I. cheese on toast !
Thanks to Maggie , I got my fave flavor of Girl Scout cookies!
Both in our meals and our snacks!

This DISPO still can’t seem to let CHRISTmas go
Since Friday wraps up my weekend (before I return to work on Saturday ), I prefer to cozy up at home with A&A
Aah … So much better when RTC : Ready to Consume !
With my fave HOLYday flavor !
As I watch HGTV ‘s Love It or List It Too about houses with pools, I watch this Milano swim in my Mocha ~ Peppermint -style!
