Okay… I am pretty sure this was the fastest week yet! How is it possible Friday! Crazy! Well do I have some news for you!…I got my license! I am officially a licensed driver, o how happy I am. I can not even tell you how nervous I was, I had been dreading the test for weeks, I was so scared. But at the start I calmed myself down, took some deep breaths, and just acted like this was a normal practice with my mom in the car. However, I wish they would just test you on actually driving, like on the highway, when there are other people around. Not stupid parallel parking and K-Turning. Really how often will I parallel park….probably never. I will look for a normal spot 😉 Well anyway I am ecstatic! Nothing will wipe the smile off my face today! Happy Friday Friends!

+ How to Make the Switch to a Healthy Lifestyle
Kristy sums up Healthy living perfectly in this post!
This is cute! Great to remember.
I am so sick of trying to explain to people that when products say “Natural Flavor”, that’s not really what it means!

Yummy animal-free proteins!
+ 10 Fast Facts About the FDA Gluten-Free Food Labeling Rule
I was so happy to hear this last Friday. But we still need to do more. Regulated voluntary labeling is great, but we need mandatory labeling like the other top allergens!
I love when Taylor does these posts on variations of a simple move. I love Push-ups and some of these I will have to try!
+ Eating Big: 5 Tips for Adding (Good) Calories to your Day
I know I definitely need to work on bulking up my calorie intake.
Our society focuses way to much on numbers! We are all so much more then that.
Do you tell yourself you aren’t doing enough or you need to do more?

I adore that dress also, and think it would be so fun to make your own cornflakes. Also, I am so in love with your blog theme. I have been on the look out for a new one, do you mind if I steal it? 🙂

I know, I had such a hard time finding a good theme. But I guess you can’t ask for much when you don’t self-host, haha!
