The Color Run

The color run in Sacramento, CA.

Trying to get to the start line through 15,000 + people!

The first color beating I received. Bright orange!  

If you do this, don't forget your neon sunnies! Because it hurts if you get the color in your eyes! I'm speaking from experience!

Some of the coolest things I seen. Lots of tutus, crazy colored wigs and one guy was wearing a unicorn head!!! It was awesome!

Heading in to the blue cloud! 

I loved the spirit every one had for this race! They totally went all out! The whole point of this race is to have fun and fun we did!

Thinking, how am I gonna get this stuff off?

The after math. Yellow eyelashes and all!

Such a good time!

The race was $60 bucks and you get a shirt which is the one I have on in this picture, a color runner head band, and a bag of personal color to throw like you see here in my hand. They have a store set up for you to buy more bags of color and shirts/socks that say "Color Runner". Super cute!

At the end of the day it was 60 dollars well spent and quite the experience! See the video here! What's their motto? 

BE HEALTHY. 

BE HAPPY.

 BE YOU.

 BE A COLOR RUNNER.

Cheesy Squash Bake

Mmm....

I used some yellow squash, zucchini and carrots. 

Cut them up.

You'll need half a white onion, shredded monterey jack cheese, fresh basil, and bread crumbs.

Cover the bottom of the pan with the bread crumbs in a thin layer.

 Do one  layer of the squash.

One layer of carrots.

Add basil.

Add a layer of tomato sauce or pasta sauce.

Then repeat the layering all over again.

Till you reach the top. Pre heat oven for 400 degrees and cook for 30 min.

All done! This will make a lot of food and can probably feed up to 10 people. It's a good thing to make for a dinner party or you can just put the leftovers in tupperware and take it for lunch for a few days.

It tastes as good as it looks!

Potato Salad With Green Beans, Dill, And Ricotta

I love my carbs and my favorite are potatoes! Since I don't eat a lot of potatoes when I do I make them count in deliciousness! This is one of those recipes!

You'll need : Green beans and small potatoes. I really like using the mixed baby purple potatoes in this recipe but I didn't have any at that moment. Trim the ends of the green beans and cut the potatoes in half.

1 juice of a lemon, and 1/2 cup of chopped dill.

1/2 cup of ricotta cheese.

I like to have some bigger pieces of dill to add for presentation at the end to make it look pretty!

Cook potatoes in a pot of salted water until tender, but not falling apart, about 9 min. Add green beans in the last 3 minutes of cooking and cook until tender.

Place in bowl toss in olive oil and add the juice of the lemon. Let cool slightly and then add the ricotta  and dill. I sprinkled paprika on top for a pop of color. Salt and pepper to taste.

So easy and Soooo good!!!!

Turquoise Dream

Shirt Anchor Blue, Skirt With Attached Belt Kassety, Necklaces Forever 21, Earrings Express, Cuff Forever 21, Shoes Jessica Simpson, Purse From Ross, Sunglasses Ralph Lauren.

I love maxi skirts about as much as I love maxi dresses in summer, which is a lot!!! So comfortable yet sexy at the same time, almost effortlessly. I was really drawn to the color of this skirt because my favorite color is teal. It's odd that this is also the name my mother wanted to name me...Teal Green? Wow mom, thank god that didn't work out and my dad decided on Sheena Green. Anyway I bought this cuff a long time ago and never had anything to go with it so when I rediscovered it today I was excited to incorporate it into my attire! These wedges are to die for! They have all the comfort of a wedge with an added bonus, I can slip out of them fast and walk around bare foot which I'm known to do often.
