Happy Valentine a Day Late :)

Happy President’s Day too while I’m at it. Are you having a day off? Doing anything fun?

And how was your Valentine’s? I used it to make excuses why I should eat sugar all day ugh! Here are some pics of mine & Angel’s shoot where we tried our best to be, or at least pretended to be romantic 🙂 Too much fun when you get to play with your bestie!

I also had a Zoom call with a fan/friend and he knows I like mushrooms. He shows up wearing a mushroom hat, so I had to bring out mine too. I guess I can say I had a date on Valentines after all 🙂

And a video where I explain that she only had one job before the shoot – ‘don’t f*ck up’ the cookie!

Also hauled Angel, Jennifer and Ashley to IKEA with me. Pretended to cook up some meatballs in one of their display kitchens 😉

Was looking for the ‘friends’ section at IKEA. Luckily I found the 2 last ones at a discount LOL…

Also hit Mothership coffee and got smash burgers at Love Always 🙂

Did some pickleballing too. I was pretty good. Or the other people were not that good. Either way, a lot of fun! Got another clinic today, but will try to lift some weights before too!

Resting and recovery is always important. Hunter is on the same page with that. Doubt he needs recovery from anything, just resting from his street surveillance duties. He also has to make sure the neighbors cat Ocean, stays on his side of the street.

Have my friends Amanda & George in town. We tried a new Korean BBQ place called Grill Nine. I like when you have the option for All-You-Can-Eat and they also had sushi on their menu. Tasty place, but not my favorite…

Best part was to find a Korean market after. So much fun and cute stuff. And candy! I lost it to sugar the past 2 weeks and hoarded up on more sugar! I passed on the boiled pork toes!

Cameras rolled, fresh fantasies created… Just another day at the office!

In between my sugar intake I did make some heathy choices too! I made this carnivore pizza crust. The whole pizza can be made fully carnivore, but I did add tomato paste and mushrooms on mine. This is delicious and so easy and fast to make. The woman’s IG account is @itscourtneyluna if you want some healthy recipes 🙂

Today I’m cutting refined sugars again. Fot the 36th time it feels like hahahaaa… I can have stuff sweetened with honey, maple syrup or vanilla drops. I feel better when I eat real foods. When I have sugary options, I can skip a whole meal and just eat a pastry or enough chocolate and call it a meal.

Yesterday we had 14 people that went on a hike doing the Kraft Mountain Loop trail. So much fun! I put some ribs in the smoker before and made a chili for after too. Hunter loves Amanda!

Also finished the 2nd season of ‘Andor’ which I think was a bit up and down. Never been into Star Wars, but the 1st season was pretty good.

Also finished watching the series ‘The Lowdown’ with Ethan Hawk. So good and I loved it!

And lastly I finished reading the ‘The Nightingale’ by Kristin Hannah. My 3rd book in a row by her. A little slower in the beginning, but plenty of excitement as you get further in the book.

Got a hair appointment for this week and will see what else shows up my way 🙂

What a Week :)

First off I tried a new trail in Calico Basin last Sunday. It was so awesome and beautiful. It’s called Kraft Mountain Loop and takes about 2,5h. In one part of it you walk on a riverbed and you are surrounded by beautiful striped rocks and mountains. Already gathering people to go back there another time!

Decided on the hike that I might as well start my 72h fast too. It was pretty freaking hard this time! I think my mistake was going to the gym on Monday and working out for an hour and then playing pickleball for 2h after. I think it drained me and I felt pretty hungry the whole duration of the fast. BUT, I did it! The result, no bloat and like last time, I wasn’t tired, but have to remember to take it a bit easy in the gym while fasting!

I found this place close by where you paint pottery. I asked my neighbors to come with me and we all loved it! They had a bunch of different things to choose from to paint. I need more coffee mugs so I picked one. There are a lot of different techniques and in between creating you have to dry the paint up before adding more. Now our pieces are drying and cant wait to see how it turns out. Can you guess which one of the mugs is mine LOL…

I bought a membership to the place and plan to make more stuff! I can really recommend trying this with your friends!

This week was an overload of shooting! First on my own… Thanks for my fabulous chef’s outfit Danny 🙂

Then more stuff with Angel. We also had a suite to utilize and Greg, the great photographer, showed up too. I’m just showing some of it here but I have so much more. Just haven’t had time to go through it all yet.

I also bought us these cute cookies. I thought we could shoot some cute Valentine’s stuff. One got ruined before I even left the cafe. I then told Angle to carry the other one in the box so it would not get smashed. She had ONE job, to carry the box! Next thing I know she has it tucked under her arm and you can’t even read the text hahhaaaa… I still think we made it look cute 🙂

Not sure what I said, but Angel looked like she was ready to stab me , so I drew a knife in her hand LMAO…

Since it was the Superbowl yesterday, we went with the theme!

Did you watch the Superbowl? Angel knows someone, who knows someone, so we had tickets to go watch it at Aria with Greg. There was so much food and desserts that I could use another 72h fast now hahhaaaa… It was great though!

Got these cool metallic nails done too, nap time, late night selfie, me and Hunter doing neighborhood watch, and me stuffing my face with a strudel 🙂

I think that covers it. My current plan is to get some organizing done. Things and clothes are all over the place. Got a pickleball clinic later today and plan to try some new recipes I found on Instagram 🙂 Are you celebrating or doing something on Valentine’s on Saturday? I might dress Hunter up and we can feast on some tuna & chocolate 🙂

Have a great week!
