GALAXY LEGGINGS

So in this picture you can kind see the leggings I am wearing. They are GALAXY LEGGINGS that I made recently. 

And I am selling them!! They are not on etsy yet but they will be soon!

Each pair is made from a pair of American Apparel leggings (all made in the USA). 

And they are all hand painted.

shipping will also be free :)

I will post more pictures and information about them soon!

smile at the chance just to see you again

So it's still snowing here in Maine, sometimes it's beautiful but right now its just wet and gross. However, it has been a little warmer lately so I thought it might be nice to take some pictures outside (for like 10 minutes.)

yoga

So not sure if I've mentioned this before, I have scoliosis. Kinda sucks, but something that helps is yoga — mostly basic poses and stretching, however I love it so I try to learn advanced poses as I get better.

Here are some things: yoga poses, things I love such as tea, Jack Johnson, and sushi (I love sushi — the one exception I make in my paleo diet)

also here is my other tumblr: http://until-my-legs-give-out.tumblr.com/

 scorpion, vrischikasan — still haven't mastered this one, but working on it [what you can't see in the picture is that I'm balancing my feet on the wall, but I practice all the time]

crustless quiche

So I made an extremely delicious quiche. It it crustless since I am paleo, a way of eating that basically eliminates refined carbs (bread, crackers, pasta etc.) You would think it would suck to not eat those things but I don't miss it that much and I feel goood. [Side note: I am not doing this to lose weight, but to help my progress with athletic training]

This quiche is honestly sooo good. So here you go :)

ingredients:
8 large eggs                               
6 oz asparagus, cut into 1 inch lengths
1/2 cup milk
1 tsp salt
3 slices rye bread, cubed
4 oz Gruyere cheese, grated
1 tbs olive oil
1 cup napa cabbage, shredded
1 leek, chopped

 

directions:
(1) preheat the oven to 375˚ F — 
(2) whisk the eggs in a bowl with milk until smooth
 (3) cut three slices of bread into 1/2 inch cubes — add to egg mixture


(4) chop leek and asparagus, add to a pan with olive oil and salt
 (5) saute leeks until softened — add leeks and saute for one minute

(6) add egg mixture to the pan and reduce heat

  (7) shred/chop cabbage and add to the pan

 (8) grate more cheese on top if you want — put pan into the oven and cook for 25 minutes

(9) let set for 5 minutes, eat and enjoy! :)
