Waldorf Chicken Salad + Workout

Hey all... Have allergies been hurtin anyone else? I do not technically have allergies but this season has been rough! I've been feeling nauseous with some major headaches... But after laying in bed last night I woke up early this morning to hit the treadmill and the weights... Nothing like a morning sweat to getchya goin.


Dinners lately have been even more random and thrown together than usual... But this little dish came together nicely and I thought I'd share the simplicity and tastiness of my Clean Waldorf Chicken Salad.


Combine Ingredients: 
Shredded Grilled Chicken Breast
Chopped Celery
Chopped Walnuts
Chopped Pear (with the other half on the side to snack on)
0% Plain Chobani
Black Pepper to taste

ENJOY!

How do you treat seasonal allergies? Whats your favorite Chicken Salad recipe?

Blue BMW Birthday Cake

Today is my fiance's 30th birthday!

We celebrated Saturday night in Hoboken with family, friends and a surprise Birthday Cake with the help of the amazing Hudson Cakery!!

Thanks to Hoboken Girl, I had become familiar with baker Jennifer's beautiful work, and asked if she could help make my fiance's dream car a 30th birthday cake.

I sent her a few pictures, ideas for the license plates (his original AOL screenname for the front and the "MD" symbol for the back), and flavor combination (chocolate cake and peanut butter flavored filling), ... She created a beautiful and OFF THE CHAIN INSANELY DELICIOUS cake which she hand delivered on the down-low to keep the cake a surprise.

Note the surprised (and extremely handsome) face:


The party was filled with friends, family, laughter, singing, and birthday wishes I'm sure will come true :)




Happy 30th Birthday my love! (Celebrating with leftover cake for sure!)
