Fitness Beees

This is a safe space, right? 'Cause I have something to tell you.

My boyfriend and I... started a fitness/health joint-Instagram account. Try to reserve your judgement here, okay? I know how it sounds when couples do certain things that make their friends roll their eyes, I really do. I roll my eyes at a lot! Well, I don't actually, but I understand the eye-rolling. We really just wanted to start it 'cause we've been talking about doing it since we started making juices two years ago and it seemed like it might be helpful in even a small way to try and maintain. 

So far we've only posted recipes of what we've been eating that's healthy, but soon I want to start posting short videos of what we do at the gym or maybe other kinds of things that would fall into the category of trying to be a balanced, functional adult. I'm in no way saying that we're even remotely qualified to be telling anyone what's healthy and what's not. If anything, having this account has only encouraged us to do more juices and different kinds of smoothies since it's fun to take photos and share the stuff that you're proud of. And maybe "proud" is a stupid word for it, but personally it makes me feel good. (I don't know why I think I need to justify this so much, to be honest.)

If you've got any interest in following us at all, you can check it out over here. 

Bob's Burgers Valentines

I try not to promote Buzzfeed listicles often (since, well, they're contributing to the decline of this age), but this one I wholeheartedly endorse.

Why the hell don't adults exchange Valentines at their offices? Seems like they're trying to be a little too-cool-for-school, if you ask me.

“Keep frozen, peeled bananas in your freezer (in tupperware). They make ridiculously good additions to late night smoothie recipes.”

Longest Argument

God, I love this.

Bob's Burgers Cookbook

Remember that guy I told you about who makes the burger recipes from Bob's Burgers into real recipes? HE'S GETTING A BOOK OF HIS RECIPES PUBLISHED. Why is this a big deal? 'Cause I feel like it's kind of rare these days to have someone actually good get a book deal when so many untalented nothings seem to dominate the book world. It's irritating and and a whole other topic, really. But this guy? Cole Bowden? Good for him! Such a great idea and even greater that the show's creator, Loren Bouchard, is so on board with it, too - he's even supplying the cookbook's illustrations, which seems cool as hell. 

Can't wait for this to come out. It comes out March 22nd!

Mom Says

Great

me: just a second don’t come i—

If I'd have seen this GIF when I was 16, I would've never stopped laughing.

Spare Guest Slippers

If I ever get to meet Martha Stewart, the first thing that I'm going to ask her is if she really has a basket full of clean, unused slippers for guests to use upon arrival into her probably-beautifully warm home BECAUSE THIS IS THE KINDEST THING I'VE EVER HEARD OF.

Sidenote: I'm always annoyed when I see people wearing outdoor shoes in their own home. I used to think it was just a thing that actors did on television shows, but apparently it's RAMPANT behaviour if you live in the States. Why the hell would anyone be comfortable doing this? You're in a home that you own (or rent) and you want to walk around like you're an unwelcome stranger? How does that make any sense? Relax! Take your damn shoes off! Bask in home comfort! 

Anyway, this is the nicest idea in the world. I have a pair of (dollar store) slippers in my closet that I just bought for the next person who stays at our house, but I literally DREAM of the day when I can buy numerous pairs (in varying sizes!) of some kind of money-brand like Bed, Bath & Beyond slippers or something and display them in a beautiful basket by the front door. And chances are - you make a lot more money than me, so you should probably get on this NOW. So f-ing nice. 

(Are Bed, Bath & Beyond slippers even high quality? Probably not. How the hell would I know that, though? I'm not in the income bracket that allows you to know where to purchase lofty slips! I will be one day, though. And that's gonna be sweet as hell.)
