I found out some good news today š
Remember how I had to get my blood drawn about 2 weeks ago to check for potential cholesteral and blood pressure issues?Ā Well, I finally called the doctor’s office today to check on the results, and was told that everything they tested for was completely normal! WOOHOO!!! However, I am starting to focus on being preventative with my diet and exercise though and keeping any possible health issues at bay.Ā I am just glad that I’ve been lucky this far!
Lunch was another bowl of Bob’s Red Mill Veggi Soup with a little sprinkle of grated parmesan on top:
This soup mix is seriously awesome.Ā Every day that I’ve had it I’ve looked forward to eating the whole thing and loved every bite!Ā The added parmesan on top is great too…it adds the perfect amount of salty melty goodness without going overboard with it.Ā YUM!
In other news, check out the second “most gawked at photo” on WeddingGawker…my husband took that picture!Ā That’s our friend Daniel when he first saw his bride Abbey walking down the aisle.Ā Super romantic, right? š
Today I want to hear about your CELEBRITY CRUSH(es) – past or present!…cheesy but fun šĀ Nate and I both really admire Gerard Butler (me more in the looks and accent departments, and Nate more in the manliness department), especially since he’s been in a variety of movies, many of which we loved!
I came across your site a few weeks back and I love it! Its truly an inspiration, I once desired to have the itty bitty model body which normally comes from good genes or unhealthy (no food diet) eating. I am now very healthy with diet and exercising, and truly enjoying the food I nourish my body with instead of feeling guilty. I just wanted to thank you!
Also, Joseph Gordon Levitt is my current celebrity crush. I try and stray media crushes but this is almost inevitable. He’s so dreamy plus he is such an intellectual man with a good side of sarcasm and humor. Can’t forget his wonderful acting skills, either.
Have a lovely day, pretty little lady!
Yay, for good test results. I have a celeb crush on Iam Somerhalder…forever since high school. dreamy.
Glad everything went well with your blogwork.
I love David Duchovny from his “X-Files” years. So cute.
Oops. I meant bloodwork – must have blogging on the brain.
Celeb crushes – George Clooney and Johnny Depp (esp as Jack Sparrow, yes please)!! Also, weirdly, Viggo Mortenson in Lord of the Rings. I think I have a daddy complex.
Bob’s Mill Lentil soup looks like an awesome breakfast. I’m such a nonbreakfast type person that something salty and lunch like is more my style. Yum!
oh my goodness. past celeb crush : Johnathan taylor thomas. hello. I used to LOVE him! Present celeb crush : Channing Tatum (sorry handsome boyfriend move over š )
Congrats on the news! Must be such a relief.
My celeb crush is definitely Brad Pitt minus the mustache or gotee.
Glad everything checked out normal!! š
Past celeb crush? EASY. Jonathan Taylor Thomas š
Favorite celeb…probably Matt Damon…he’s just so darn cute and love the Bourne Identity series.
If you have problems with high cholesterol, one good natural way to bring it down is to take Red Yeast Rice. It is in the vitamin section of any store and is in pill form. My parents use it and it brought theirs down. Avoid meds if you can….they really can hurt your liver.
Congrats on your bloodwork! That stuff always makes me nervous. But you are so right in attempting to take preventative measures. High cholesterol is so easy to get but so hard to get rid of once you do. And once you go on meds, you never go off them. Almost no matter what.
My current celebrity crush. Hmmm. Channing Tatum. I think he’s beautiful.
Good news about your tests coming back normal. Waiting for results can be so nerve wracking.
My current celebrity crush is Taylor Kitsch from Friday Night Lights.
i feel the same way about how beautiful you are!
must feel good to get a clean bill of health. My celeb crushes are mostly women….
Sandra Bullock, Jennifer Garner, The female judge on American Idol (not Ellen) and more.
That’s so awesome about your normal test results. I agree with being preventative! I love Bob’s Red Mill Vegi soup mix, it’s delish.
I have a celeb crush on Sean Penn and of course, Robert Pattinson. š

Aww your husband takes some great photos! Celeb crush past: anyone of the Backstreet Boys. Current: the guy who plays Chuck on Chuck. hahaa I am married, but that guy is so adorable and likeable. Plus he’s bad arse now that he’s a spy.
Yay for your good news!!! š
This might make some people wrinkle their noses, but my celebrity crush is Johnny Depp!
Oh wow, your friend Daniel’s face…what a GREAT moment your hubby got! Congrats on the blood news and my celebrity crush is totally Guy Fieri on the Food Network. Such a MAN in the kitchen! š
yay for good news!
growing up, I was convinced that Jonathan Taylor Thomas would love me if only he could meet me. Clearly I was wrong since he loves guys. š
I’m usually crushing on Henry Ian Cusick, Patrick Dempsey, and Christian Bale. š
I know he’s super old, but George Clooney. MMMMM. x10000. Calming down and moving on….I saw on your About Me page that you live in CO- me too! š
congrats on the good news! my sister has been wondering about her cholestorel levels too since she’s been tracking calories. she has seen that her sodium and cholesterol for foods is way high!!
my celebrity crush is chatum tanning.
What a cute photo and I am so glad your blood levels were normal…holler!!
Okay celebrity crushes…I am seriously, dangerously in love with Peyton Manning…the Colts QB. I even think my husband looks like him (and so do most people) haha! Lucky me!! And my girl celebrity crush (yes I think this is totally normal) is Kerri Russel…LOVE HER!
Great news!!! AMAZING capture in that photo!
