{Fresh Friday}

Hello! How are you on this fine Friday!!?!?
I know I am just counting the days until spring shows it's pretty little face.
I don't know why....but it sure is taking it's sweet time this year! Maybe spring feels like she's got a little winter fluff to lose before she can show herself to the world and that's why it's taking a bit longer than usual!!!
Who knows.......

These photos are from Saugatuck, MI. We went there last weekend for a little fun! I just love that town....It's so beachy cute:)
And even in the winter....the beach is still really beautiful!

I stepped out of the car to snap a few photos....but trust me....I didn't stay out long! It was FREEZING!

I was smiling and laughing because my husband refused to get out of the car to snap a photo of myself enjoying the beachy winter day! He thinks I am nuts! I probably am:) But I was happy and just took the photo myself!!

Probably should have had a little lipstick on but owell!!!

And speaking of fluff........
I have been really trying to clean up my eating to get rid of my winter fluff!
I switched gyms and started going to a new gym that has tons of classes and is completely motivating and inspiring!! I am so happy there:)
It helps that my girlfriend goes to this gym too and we've been going together! So nice to have a workout buddy!!!!

And we've been whipping up a few healthy eats together!!!

Here's one we made after a double class session at the gym!!!
2 classes......spinning and jump rope....burned just over 600 calories!!!
woohoo.....the wine we drank after the gym didn't count, right!?!?!?!!??!

Let me just tell you....this was like a party going on in my mouth! It was tropical heaven!!!!!
So many flavors going on....it was pure bliss eating this fabulous little salad!

I just used storebought couscous and put just enough on the salad to really fill me up after the gym!!
You could add or subtract anything you want!!
And I just used the sesame oil, pineapple juice and lime juice as dressing on the salad.

I will definitely be making this again.

What healthy foods have you been eating lately!?!!??

And I did a little craft this week!
I won't lie....it did take quite a bit of glue and time to make this wreath!! But just look at how cute it is!!

I know.....these have been all over the blog world....but I just finally got around to making one and I L.O.V.E. it!! I hope you make one too!

And it barely cost anything to make it! Love that:)

I hung it up in our bedroom. I thought it needed a little spring sprucing:)

Well and I of course added some daisies to mine! You know how I feel about daisies:)

Simple...beachy happiness:)
Now...if only I lived near the beach! Maybe someday....until then...i'll just keep bringing beach bliss to my life....anyway I can:)

The possibilities are just endless with this cute wreath! If you are a bride to be...these would be completely adorable at your wedding!
Or if your having a party.....well what about decorating with tons of these ruffly wreaths!
Cheap Chic:)

And I included some jars on my dresser.
I just painted the lid of one of the jars! Simple and cute! I also added a chalkboard tag that says..Maui!!
Well...hello....who wouldn't want to go to Maui!
It's on my to do soon list:)
And I thought seeing it each and everyday would inspire me to get planning!

So there you have it!!! A fresh recipe to try out and a simple craft to create this weekend!! Hope you have a wonderful and inspired weekend!!!

And don't forget to stop by my Simple Daisy facebook page!! Once I get 600 "likes" i'll be giving a pretty little bangle bracelet away:):)
