Exercise

So I just got a new exercise video, Ballet Conditioning by Element. I can't do most Yoga/Pilates videos/classes because my knees are messed up, but ballet I can do. I only got through the first 20 minutes of this video before my legs started to shake but I liked the relatively easy pace of it, making it easy to follow along, but you could still feel the burn. I'm trying to lose a few inches (inches not pounds, I don't really care about my weight, but my stomach is a little pudgy of late and I would like to lose about 2-3 inches off of it) so I'm going to try to motivate myself by including what I do in this blog. Because nothing helps clothing look better than a fit body.

really good potoatoes

Potatoes
Olive Oil
Garlic
Herbes De Provence
Salt (Optional)

wash and cut up potatoes and place in an oven safe dish. Drizzle olive oil over top. Sprinkle with Herbes de Provence and Garlic. Toss potatoes to make sure they're coated. Bake at 400 degrees until soft when punctured with a fork (about an hour to an hour in a half)

These potatoes are a great side dish, reheat well and once they're in the oven you can just forget about them! Great for brunch as well.
