Happy Monday, Doll!
How was the weekend??
Ahhhh mine was fabulous and kinda stressful! The most relaxing time I had was watching Khloe and Lamar while sipping my Australian Red in a bath robe as my self tan was drying…..I love Lam Lam, I love my red and I love a good tan!
First off, I had a glorious time at Whole Foods yesterday sipping coffee a eating from the salad bar. I figured if I’ll be eating my weight in Mexican, Quick Foods and whatever I can find in the Kansas City Airport in a couple days, I better be good with my eats until then. After all, I have to remain bloat free when I meet all my friends and business partners when I land 
Until the time the plane lands I will be eating all these glorious veggies and proteins:
So the weekend I had multiple mini meltdowns.
I needed a green dress.
I dragged Ryan around Downtown Vancouver on St. Paddy’s day on the search for the BEST green CHEAP dress {I never rock green!} for this upcoming Green Party in Kansas City on Saturday.
There were either ooodles of ladies looking to show some leg in green or female leprechauns purchased every speck of green when I was hunting.
Ryan was pissed after hours of shopping {but I did get a BOMB pair of Rag and Bone Skinnies which I have been eying for some time now!} we headed home. sans green dress.
I think I texted Michelle something like “HELP! I need your stylist help, forever 21 this evening?” and she kindly, lovingly said “YES” to her seester.
Saturday evening we were at Forever 21 at 8pm.
At the bitter end of our shopping trip I found this dress!! This dress has saved my life, has been hanging googling its eyes at me on my closet door….
Yes, I am that tall…..in 5 inch heels at 5’10, I’m a giant next to that fire place and WILL be a giant next to my man in Kansas….oh goodness.
This dress cost me like $30 smackers and I love it!
Ahhhh I felt like a shiny million when I found a dress I can wear to the party!
The rest of the weekend was spent eating, I swear.
Last night while lazing on the couch I made some KILLER Mocha Java Mousse {the filling from the Mocha Java Mini Cheesecakes on Treat Friday}.
Pardon the gnarly pic….it was late and with my Blackberry.
Mocha Java Mousse:
1/2 cup Greek Yogurt
1/4 tsp Ground Coffee
2 tbsp Cocoa Powder
1 tbsp Vanilla Protein Powder
4 drops Liquid Stevia
Whip it with a spoon and jump in!
Love it.
Today I am getting my Coaching on, doin’ biz and heading to appointments and then getting everything ready for when we leave at 5am on Wednesday.
Comment Below! What is your favorite late night snack?

Cute dress! I ran around looking for something new for St. Pat’s, but ended up settling on something I already had.
Ah well- still had a great day!

Late night snack is a hand full of raisins or a spoon full of peanut butter!
I went to Kansas City once about 5 years ago…I wasn’t much of a meat eater back then (the occasional burger) and went out to dinner and ordered salmon…the restaurant had to check if they even had any fish that night…most people order BBQ. It’s like the cooked meat everywhere you turn.

My favorite late night snack is cereal topped with fruit! I used to live in Kansas City (11 years there)… Now I’m in Vancouver as well. Which Whole Foods do you go to? I like the one on 4th in Kits. Yes, it’s small, but I find it to be quite cozy!

Gorgeous dress! Have an awesome time
My late night snack is definitely peanut butter sandwiches.

So glad you found your dress! did you end up nabbing it from forever 21? That store is always good for last minute shopping…lots of diversity.
For the first time I was actually instructed to go shopping…that has NEVER happened. But I really needed new undies. The faithfuls were starting to wear a little thin. What can I say…I’m super picky about knickers. I only ended up finding one pair that I liked #epicfail. Oh well try again next week.
Oh yeah and my late night snack attack is usually something like PB & J on crackers or raw trail mix with a bit of dried fruit thrown in.

I love your honesty…I have been shopping before and had a few mini meltdowns before too! Eek!
You look like a HOT mama in your dress…so excited for your trip! Mocha java..simple + healthy treat…yes, I’ll have one!
Have a great week!

This snack sounds like the perfect pre-gym snack…some protien, some coffee, some cocoa, and sweetness=everyone is happy!

LOVE that dress!!! It looks great on you!

You look SUPER fabulous! And I’m so happy because you found a dress at Forever 21 that is long enough haha! I’m 2 inches shorter than you and really struggle finding dresses that aren’t indecently short on me at F21 so you’ve given me new hope! You look amazing!
