That’s right, we’ve already had 20 weeks of this round, since each letter is featured for two weeks. Time flies when you’re having fun in the kitchen!

I hope you found a few to add to your to-make list. My tip is to “pin” the ones you want to remember for the future – which is how I make my grocery list every week! Yes, I really do make things I pin on Pinterest. 🙂

Next week we’re back to normal with the September Meatless Mondays from A-Z ingredients. To join in the fun, just create an original recipe with Kabocha Squash and post the recipe next Monday. If you have an old recipe,  you can link up that too – just make sure you add the logo. Hope to see your new creation next Monday!

BWV-Round2 -September

********************

Questions for you:

  • Do you make things that you pin on Pinterest or is it eye candy only?
  • Have you cooked with Kabocha before? I haven’t!

Welcome

Hi! I’m Heather, a yoga & wellness teacher based in Colorado... Read More…

Which is more YOUR thing - camping near an alpine Which is more YOUR thing - camping near an alpine lake or shredding on a local trail? ⬇️

In both cases, we need to protect the land we enjoy on our adventures. And Leave No Trace is one program that helps with that - especially those that have a high rate of degradation through a program called Hot Spots. 

I'm excited to be partnering with @leavenotrace and @onxbackcountry to celebrate and preserve all these beautiful outdoor places. And for all of June, $10 of every onX Backcountry membership is being donated towards Leave No Trace’s Hot Spot program. A great way to get access to my favorite backcountry app AND support LNT! 

I added a link in my bio if you're interested in learning more, so you can help #ExploreandRestore!

What scares me is probably different than what scares you.

I am admittedly a timid mountain biker - but getting better every day.

I'm afraid to face plant, but still working on crow pose in yoga.

⬇️ What is one thing that scares you & how are you working on it?

Am I the only one still (basically) living in yoga Am I the only one still (basically) living in yoga clothes?

For at least part of the day, it's just easier to put on yoga pants, sports bra, and a "zoom-appropriate" top. Or a button-up layered over my workout tank. It makes it SO much easier to squeeze in a workout when I have time.

Tell me I'm not the only one who's not going back to work clothes?!

Wait, should I look at the camera? 📸 But reall Wait, should I look at the camera? 📸

But really, keep your gaze straight ahead to keep your neck safe in bridge (or Setu Bandha Sarvangasana). It's rare that a version of this pose isn't included during cooldown in my classes.

Do you love bridge as much as I do?
