Irony

Recently Steven and I have started 2 new things: New Recipe Day and we have started the C25K running program. Ironic. First with the new recipes: we always seem to get into a rut when it comes to cooking, and a while back, I downloaded the Epicurious and Betty Crocker apps to my phone. These are the best free apps a cook can get! I have been browsing through tons of recipes and adding to my favorites. Then we choose one together and go shopping and make it! It's always something a bit familiar with a twist. I haven't taken a picture of everything we have made, which I kinda regret but here are a few pictures of what we have recently made!



Thai-Style Marinated Pork Ribs with Jasmine Rice










"Red Lobster" Crab Alfredo Linguini
Our 3 year "dating" meal :)





Homemade boneless buffalo wings
(Sauce from BWW)










Here is the irony, in addition to new recipe days, we have started the C25K running program! C25K takes a basic "non-runner" and trains them to be able to run about 30 minutes continuously or roughly, a 5k in 9 weeks. We are halfway done with week 2, and we are really enjoying the exercise, spending the time together and getting in shape all at once! Aside from some really painful shin splints on my end, we are doing great and keeping each other motivated to keep going :) Looking forward to running long distance again!

New food and running for the summer? Ironic to say the least, but are we killing our hard work with food? haha I hope not!

More recipes, longer distances and additional summer adventures to come!
