Hello Summer…. Meet Laural

by bhealthy on May 9, 2010

Mysterious… romantic… prestine… It could only be the pacific island of Bora Bora…

I wish I was reporting from the mythical island about how wonderful the scuba is, however, I am nowhere near Bora Bora. I did come close though… Check out what I found this week on the last day of FINALS!!

(Yes, I thought this was too pretty to pass up until those Bora Bora images..)

Since I am not headed to the island of Bora Bora anytime soon, I was more than happy to receive an awesome package from the company “Bora Bora”, which makes ultra-tasty nutritious snacks!

Inside this super fun box was more than I even expected to be getting:
A t-shirt, A tiki-man mug, tattoos, and of course, Bora Bora Bars!
I dug into the stash this weekend, taking one to work with me for a morning snack at work!
The Tiki Blueberry Flax was amazing! It contains flax seeds, which are an excellent source of omega-3 fatty acids. These are super important for our bodies cells to work properly, as well as reducing inflammation, and many other functions! It was really tasty too, not hard, not too sweet, salty, crunchy, chewy. Perfect combo I must say.
What else have I been up to ?

Body:

Thursday-
3 Games of Volleyball in 90* !!! I was a hot mess and exhausted but it was tons of fun! I ate sand, scraped my knees diving and made some great saves. Guess who is playing volleyball for Summer League?!?!?!! Yippeee…. starts in June.

Friday-
Rest!  5 hours at Job #1 , 6+ hours at Job #2… after a looong finals week!

Saturday-
Laid by the pool all day…. Could it get any better?!

Mind:

zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz…. Finals are OVER! I’m done I’m done I’m done with finals! All I have left now is my graduate research over the summer at work, comps in the fall and I have a Master’s degree folks!

Soul:

Happy Mother’s Day to All the Mom’s and Mommy-to-be’s!

Just a few photos of food: Pasta with my own special tomato sauce…

and a Freshy Fresh Lunch:

Veggie Salad with cucumbers, broccoli, snap peas, carrots, cabbage, strawberries and some protein-packed tuna!
Is anyone else excited for summer?
Is anyone else excited for The Sex and the City, 2 premiere!??!?!!?

    When I started reading I thought you were actually going to Bora Bora and was going to die of jealousy. I’m still a bit jealous of the bars!
