Hi everyone!

HAPPY FRIDAY!

I do love Fridays. Hope your Thursday night went well. I wanted to recap for everyone my week in exercise land. I am posting what I did in terms of calorie busting sessions just in case you’d like some variety in your exercise regimen.

Giant salad with tahini dressing

And for dessert, Chocolate Almond Butter Hearts (raw and vegan)!

A mixture of recipes by wonderful Averie with her Raw Vegan Peanut Butter Cups (her’s looked much better than mine…) and Ani Phyo’s Liquid Chocolate from one of her books.
