Inside out day is going great so far!!
This morning my friend Suzanne came over for a walk. We walked + talked for about an hour covering 3.3 miles around my neighborhood.
I came home and changed the laundry…
I’m working on more cleaning experiments! GOOD NEWS!
And then went back out on our same walking route, running this time! I covered 6.6 glorious outside miles!
Matt is gardening and brewing beer
Lunchtime called!
Mmmmmmmmmm pimento cheese on High Five bread!!!! Plus more spiced pecans
A few strawbs
And a wonderful fresh salad
We were out of sparkling water, but it’s back!
Fun day thus far! Although I showered, I intend to go back outside for more playing – this time on my bike! Unfortunately it’s not all that warm outside and I’m kind of cold in shorts and a t-shirt. Might have to go put on more layers!
BYE!
lynn @ the actor's diet says
we just got our refill carbon canister for our seltzer maker – life is so much more pleasant when we have bubbly water around!
Holly @ The Runny Egg says
Yep the sun is out but it is still kind of windy here too. Enjoy your day outside!
Allie (Live Laugh Eat) says
Wowza! 9.9 miles in total? I totally would have walked 0.1 more miles at the end to make it 10 :). Enjoy the rest of the day!
KathEats says
Just 6.6!
Allie (Live Laugh Eat) says
I mean plus the 3.3 walkin’!
KathEats says
I know – I walked 3.3 and then ran 3.3 – just 6.6 total.
BUT I just walked more and think I hit 10!
Marina says
I can’t wait to get some sun next week on my spring break!
your lunch looks delicious, with that gooey cheese….
Kate says
You got a pretty active day in already!
Have you ever tried to use vodka as room spray? It actually smells so good with some lavender infused in it. It is just a little bit ‘out there’ though 🙂
KathEats says
No!! that sounds cool!
Molly says
This does work…I have made room spray before with equal parts vodka, distilled water and a few drops of an essential oil!
Kate (What Kate is Cooking) says
You are a walking machine! I long for the day I live in a walkable city 🙂
Abby says
Me too Kate!
Emily @ Savory and Savage says
A day outside? Sounds wonderful. Have fun!
That salad looks so vibrant 🙂
Cait @ Beyond Bananas says
High Five Bread looks mouthwatering. Carb me, please! mm mm good!
Stacy @ Every Little Thing says
Yay sparkling water! Love that stuff. It’s nice here too, almost 70 degrees! Awesome after yesterday’s 50-degree day!
Jumanah @ Healthy Living in the Middle East says
Your so lucky to be in such a walkable town! In one day, you cover more than some in an entire week!
Freya (Brit Chick Runs) says
If you had swum instead of walking, you basically did a triathlon today 🙂 hardcore!
Cait's Plate says
Aw yay – what a fun day! 🙂 Have a fabulous time playing outside some more. Even if it’s not warm, we can always pretend right!?
Michelle says
Looks wonderful! I’d love to get into biking, if I had a good place to do it around where I live. Have a fantastic day!
Angel7 says
We just bought some strawberries today at the store. I cannot wait to eat them!
Your salad looks good! I have been eating more salads lately, because you have inspired me through the pictures of your awesome greens!
Cheers… To great health!

Simply Life says
so do you make your own sparkling water? I love drinking it but hate buying all the bottles!
KathEats says
Yes, in a keg with a carbonator for beer
Stacey (Being Stacey) says
I hope the second half of your day is just as fun! 🙂
[email protected] says
the weather looks amazing kath!! your bread creation looks to die for mmmm.
Kristi @ KristiAteIt says
I’ve never had fresh brewed beer before…I’m so curious about it!
Molly says
What’s Matt brewing this time?
KathEats says
Imperial Stout! My fav!
Becky O'Brien says
Mike and I can certainly vouch for Matt’s beer-brewing talent!
Molly says
Does he have distributing rights to Northern Illinois? I’ve just recently come around to stouts!
Angela @ Eat Spin Run Repeat says
Wow, what a fun day so far, and a lovely lunch intermission! Have fun playing this afternoon Kath! 🙂
kaila @ healthy helper! says
Not warm here either…but at least you all have some sun…..it’s cloudy here :(. Sounds like you’re having lots of fun outside……aren’t those the best days?!
J3nn (Jenn's Menu and Lifestyle Blog) says
So much fun playing like a kid but having all the freedom of al adult! 🙂
Meg says
Sunshine and strawberries – signs that SUMMER is on it’s way 😀
What a fun and active day, as usual in the KERF daily read 😉
Baking Books says
Warm enough for shorts?! I can’t believe you ran after the walk and sheets!
Is that pecans and raisins on the salad? Love raisins.
Heather @ Health, Happiness, and Hope says
Sounds like such a productive morning AND fun! That bread looks incredible for lunch. Hope you enjoy your afternoon as well! 🙂

Sounds like a great productive day! Summer is radiating through this post. Lunch looks delicious!
Julie (Food & Other Things) says
Sounds like a fun morning outside! The bread with cheese looks delicious…Enjoy the rest of your day!

We just sat outside for snack time…it was so nice. Now back to work inside…ugh. Enjoy the rest of your day Kath!
Amanda (The Nutritionist Reviews) says
You always have the prettiest salads ever!
Averie (LoveVeggiesAndYoga) says
Glad you got in some great exercise and time with your friend.
Beer making and pimento cheese and spiced nuts…all awesome too.
And getting laundry done and sheets changed is so productive feeling, love it when I am all caught up.
Annette @ EnjoyYourHealthyLife says
mmmm I am going to have pizza tonight–love the inspiration 🙂
Natalia - a side of simple says
Gardening and brewing. What a pair of activities! Hope you’re having a wonderful, sunny Sunday 🙂
Hilary says
Looks like it’s much nicer where you are than where I am. I’m inside on the couch in sweats with a blanket! I had snow….so jealous!
Namaste Gurl says
Wow, you’re quite the active women! I haven’t done 6.6 miles in quite along time- I stick to 4-5 these days 🙂
Sarah (Running To Slow Things Down) says
I never think sandwiches or salads of any kind are boring. At all. And yet I realize how horribly repetitive I am once I see your creations. They’re always so beautiful and delicious looking. 😀
Stacey (The Home-Cooked Vegan) says
Yay for outside time! Glad you are enjoying the sunshine 🙂
The Teenage Taste says
Sounds like a great day so far! I love taking walks and soaking up the sun on beautiful days like today. I followed your lead and spent the morning outside at my brother’s baseball game. I love springtime! 🙂
Alexa @ SimpleEats says
Sounds like a great weekend! I LOVE pimento cheese, it’s way too good.
Julie @ Lettuce Choose Healthy says
what a productive day! I just bought strawberries! They are so juicy! Love them!
Lisa (bakebikeblog) says
what a lovely day in the sun!
staceyhealthylife says
I’ve been busy with fun and work all day today. Outside I go again to mow the lawn.
Hannah says
I love sparkling water! I can rarely justify the price when water is free, but it’s lovely 🙂
KathEats says
Ours is free, which is why it rocks!
Christine (The Raw Project) says
Sounds like a very productive day so far, lunch looks wonderful!
Char says
At least the sun is out where you are…it snowed where I am today. Was NOT happy about that!
Vanessa says
I love your fresh lunch. I wanted to go on a walk today but didn’t know a good route! Thinking of going to the downtown mall tomorrow! Sounds like you had a good inside out day 🙂
KathEats says
Are you in Cville too!?
Vanessa says
Yes! I was here this weekend. Was going to leave tomorrow to go back to Charlotte but think I’m going to stay another day 🙂
Kim says
I’m not sure why sparkling water is so much more delicious than regular! I really want to start making my own so I don’t spend all of our money or Pellegrino.
McKayla says
Wow, you are super active today! Luv your blog (especially tribute to oatmeal)!
How do you make your sparkling water?
KathEats says
In a keg with a CO2 tank
Kathleen @ KatsHealthCorner says
I love the strawberries! I am so excited that they are finally in season! 😀
Amy says
Kath,
I see that you drink sparkling water a good deal – are there health benefits to it? Or to the specific kind that you drink? And how do you guys brew your own?
Thanks!
GingerandRice says
Your salads ALWAYS look so delicious! Its hard for me to make myself go and wash a head of lettuce. Do you buy prewashed bagged/boxed lettuce? Or do you wash it all at once and store it in some kind of container in the fridge? I want to include more greens in my diet!
KathEats says
I usually buy pre-washed organic spinach – which I do not wash again. But this salad was half romaine, which was a head that I washed in bulk and then tucked back in the fridge with a paper towel
Chelsea @ One Healthy Munchkin says
What an amazing day of playing outdoors! I was trapped inside because it snowed here today. Ugh! 🙁
lauri (RedHeadRecipes.com) says
I’m planning to buy some Shaklee products next week! Can’t wait to see your laundry review 😉
Célèste says
I have a water carbonator that I love and I’m wondering if – being green – you would be interesting in carbonating your own water. The brand is Soda Stream and I got it on Amazon for around $100. I’ve been loving it. Not only do I never run out of carbonated water (and never have to pay for it), but it’s also a green move because there are no bottles, no shipping water on trucks, nothing.
KathEats says
Yes, we do carbonate our own. See a few comments above. We use a keg + CO2 tank
Célèste says
Oh, of course. With your husband being a brewer, I should have figured. Isn’t it great. It’s my new obsession.
Dmarie says
wow, I love grilled pimento cheese but Hubby doesn’t. I think he’d go for this pimento cheese bruschetta though…the addition of nuts is sheer genius. thanks for sharing!
Melissa @ Journey to Marvelous says
Walking, running, and biking all in one day! I could learn a lesson or two from you. 🙂
