my little healthy nook : TMI Tuesday

I have seen this post on pretty much every blog I've scrolled through. I decided I would participate in this fun little "get to know me" since my blog is just a brand new baby of mine :)

List of loves from A-Z

A: APPLES!! I have one almost every day. They are fantastic with any nut butter, including almond butter (a close tie to winning the 'A' spot). i eat them almost every way possible and they make me do a happy dance each time :)

B: Beer. Yeah, I said it. I do follow a pretty clean eating lifestyle and it has benefited me in every way possible. However, I do love an occasional ice cold brewski. Moderation right?

C: Chocolate. Anything. Cookies, cake, candy, you name it i love it. Again, all in moderation?! Thank goodness for unsweetened cocoa. A little bit mixed in my greek yogurt/cottage cheese with some stevia and I get my "healthy" chocolate fix.

D: Dogs. I love those furry little animals. i have one of my own. His name is Baxter, he was born in Las Vegas on Christmas. He has one of the most unique personalities I have ever come across. I know most dog owners say that, but mine truly believes he is a toddler. He sits on my hip when i hold him and he hits when he wants something. Couldn't get any closer to a toddler in the terrible two stage.

E: Etsy. They have the most unique products.

F: Farmers Market. You can get the freshest produce at such a reasonable price. Knowing I am helping out the community by buying local produce makes me feel good as well.

G: Greek yogurt. Consumed every single morning by yours truly. Fage 0% plain is my favorite, but Chobani is also extra delicious. So good with fruit, nut butter, kashi, granola, pretty much anything :)

H: Hummus. Makes my veggies extra yummy!

I: Itch. Because what is worse than an itch you cannot scratch?

J: Jalapeños. A new favorite of mine.

K: Kitchenaid. I want one of those mixers so I can become a baking goddess. Kale is good too.

L: Lululemon because I want to go shop there SO BAD.

M: Mat. He's my best friend and I love him dearly. He also puts up with me and my attention span of a gnat, so thats a plus.

N: Nutmeg. It just smells so wonderful.

O: Olives. Because I do not like them one bit no matter how many times I try to make myself.

P: Peanut Butter. YUM.

Q: Quinoa. Another new favorite.

R: Running. It helps me clear my head, no matter how far, fast, or slow my run is. I never regret a good run.

S: Santa because Christmas is awesome and he's a jolly fellow.

T: Trader Joes. I mean that place is just awesome. Any the prices rock.

U: Under Armor. The workout gear is awesome!

V: Victoria's Secret. Because unfortunately I have a credit card there. And we all know what that means.

W: WMU. Because Western Michigan University was my school of choice at the age of 10 and I graduated this past April. It will always hold a special place in my big heart.
