Good morning y’all!! Lots of soccer yesterday – good for the USA and bad for my team. We had our first loss of the summer season, which was so diappointing, especially because we felt we played a really good game. Just unlucky I guess! The women’s team, however, had more than luck on their side!
I started the day with yogurt, raspberries and raw oats on top. A nice simple and cool breakfast for summer. Hot tea on the side! Coffee is just not doing it for me these days.
Despite my soccer game, I went to strength class in the morning. Wanted to get my upper body in! I took it easy on the lower so as not to tired out my legs.
M and I went home for lunch and I put together this salad made up of leftover lamb, rice and raita. Orange La Croix is my new favorite! I like the ones that have more over less flavor, and mango was a little underwhelming. So far my favorites are Coconut, Orange and Raspberry.
Pre-soccer snack was toast with peanut butter in a rush!
At 5:45 it was game time, and we almost didn’t get to play because a huge storm was skirting around us! After a short delay, we eventually got to start. But as I said above, it was a hard loss for our team. We had SO many shots that almost went in. But almost doesn’t get the job done!
After the game some of my teammates and I went to South Street Brewery to watch the women’s world cup game.
I had a quick shower turnaround and knew I was too tired to walk, so I pumped up my bike tires and biked! Biking was SO FUN! I have barely biked since getting pregnant in 2012 and I sure hope it makes a comeback. It’s extra nice in the summer when the breeze of speed helps keep one cool.
At South Street I had a Satan’s Pony and ordered fish and chips! I was st-arving. Haven’t had a good serving of fries to myself in a while, however, I could barely finish the fish much less the fries! Filled me up fast.
I have an intern working with me this summer on some creative updates to old posts. She made this super cute infographic for this post, and I just had to share.
Have a nice Tuesday all!

Sorry to hear about your team’s loss. But yay for bike rides. It has been so long since I’ve done that!
Linda @ TheFitty says
Super great infographic at the end and i love that it mentioned the slow cooker.
Susan says
Love your blog! Your intern is lucky to work with you – how fun! I like the “10 Ways To Eat More Real Food” – very cute! Happy Summer!

I’ve been getting into the La Croix recently as I am trying to quit the Diet Coke! Grapefruit is my favorite so far. I think I’ll be buying the orange next- thanks!
Katie @ Live Half Full says
I’ve never tried Orange La Croix but I’ve been drinking it like crazy thoughout my pregnancy. My favorite is lime right now and next I’m checking out the orange!
Jill says
You look so cute in that helmet! You need to tighten it so it actually stays on your noggin in the event of a crash, but seriously, cute!
Sagan says
That infographic is ADORABLE (and useful!).
Sounds like you had a great game! Winning isn’t everything, anyways 😉
Traci says
Cute infographic! Just wanted to give you a heads up that there’s an unnecessary “you” in the prep step!

Oh dear – thanks!

Robin says
I LOVE La Croix! It’s funny, I thought mango had more flavor than orange.I think my favorite right now is the cherry lime- it tastes just like a Cherry Limeade! Sooooo summery 🙂
Christine says
I love the cherry lime la croix! And those fish and chips look amazing!
Adi says
Weird q for you Kath – and unrelated to this post!
Having done thousands of posts over the years (feel like I’ve read most of them!), can you re-read any old post and remember that day in detail given the “prompt” of the photo/writing? Or do you remember the day only as far as how you captured it visually and through the writing?
Just curious!
KathEats says
I don’t remember most days!! In fact, sometimes readers I meet in person will remind me of something I did or said and I don’t remember at all! : )

Oh cool that you have an intern!!! I love to get my sight updated, so many older posts I’d rather didn’t exist 🙂
Amanda says
Love infographics… that’s awesome!
Kate says
My vote for the most flavorful La Croix is their Passionfruit. It is so juicy tasting!
Cassie says
Meal prep is another great way to eat more natural foods!
