Healthy Granola Yoga

Hey everyone! I went to a yoga class at Zenon dance studio in Minneapolis today! It was open level, so I figured why not give it a try? There were about 16 people in the class, a fairly diverse group of people. There were some 30 something women, a middle aged man and a 50 something woman, as well as 3 older guys who had APPARENTLY been doing yoga a while because I can promise you your average grandpa is not that flexible.

 Over all, the class itself was GREAT. I got a lot out of it and felt good afterwards, however, parking in Minneapolis sucks. And while Zenon has really reasonable prices for dance classes, I found yoga, Pilates, and Zumba classes at my community center for about half the price. The community center is also closer and has free parking. I'd love to continue taking yoga, and for me, the community center is just more reasonable.

This morning I ran off without breakfast by accident. I am a firm believer in good breakfasts and I happened to leave mine sitting on the counter. Whoops! When I got back from class I ate it right away. I had these amazing granola-type clusters from Costco, about a handful, with a banana and some of those fresh berries that are on the counter.

 Have you taken yoga classes? How was your experience?

Hello internet! I have just acquired a phone and a webcam. Due to my low supply of willing photographers, this means I can finally start the blog I really wanted to. To start with, I had some plans today that I really was looking forward to, but they got cancelled last minute. Unfortunately I had gotten all prettied up before I found out I wouldn't actually be leaving the house. As a result, I decided to cam whore myself out on the internet! Here goes nothing.

sorry (not sorry) for the ballerina pose. It was definitely necessary. The skirt was thrifted, $2 I think. The shirt's an old v-neck from rag stock I had lying around. No idea where my shoes went. :)

And here I already changed into pajamas but I wanted to show you this super awesome necklace I'm wearing! I found it (it's actually a lapel pin) at a little second-hand store my family found on vacation this past weekend. I stuck the bar of the pin through the chain and voila! Perfect starkid fan necklace. I'm also quite proud of my makeup, a sweet basic look. I'm wearing brown eyeliner and mascara with generic brand white shimmer pencil on the inner corners, The Body Shop's shimmer cube eyeshadow, Neutrogena healthy skin foundation with e.l.f. primer, bronzer, and translucent powder to hold it all together. then I threw on some "rouge violet" clinique lipstick from grandma.

Hope whatever plans you have this weekend start out better than mine!
