Grilled Scallops and Quinoa Recipe

grilled scallops quinoa recipe Giada de LaurentiisThank you Giada de Laurentiis! Your recipe was a hit.

I was watching The Food Network a couple weeks ago which I have been doing quite a bit lately and happened to stop on Giada’s show.  She was making her Grilled Scallops with Orange Scented Quinoa and it looked tasty not to mention it looked like something simple enough for this NON cook to make.

Happy Valentine’s Day: Blog Love

Happy Valentine's DayJust a quick note to wish you all a very Happy Valentine’s Day! May you be full of love and happiness. Life IS good!

I am home from Atlanta, the last place I’ll be traveling for a while (I think!).  I’m exhausted from all the traveling and ready to get some stuff done around the house AND get back into my workout routine.

I wanted to share the blog love today and show you some great posts I have found from my FitFluential peeps.  Enjoy!

Checking In: The Flu

1st birthday BellaIt’s been a while since I have posted.  I traveled to Las Vegas on business then came home and left soon after for a family trip to Oklahoma.  We celebrated our granddaughter’s 1st birthday.

It was so great to spend a few days with them.  She’s going to grow up so fast, we need to visit as much as possible.

Coming home from Las Vegas I had a bug that thankfully only lasted a few days before we left for Oklahoma.  But upon returning home I was sick as a dog.  I’m still sick but I’m feeling a lot better.

Back from Las Vegas

Las VegasLast week I was in Las Vegas for a business conference, New Media Expo/Blog World.  We stayed at the Rio and had a nice time.  I did not do any formal workouts while I was there.  For one, the fitness center wanted $25 A DAY and I would not use it for but 30-60 min. each day so it wasn’t worth it.

Oakley Winner, Holidays & More

Got a mix of things to post about today.  The winner of the Oakley sunglasses is Glenneth of Let’s Talk and Walk. Way to go, Glenneth.  I have emailed you. #1 came up on random.org and your comment was the first one.  Again, I do have the random.org image if necessary (it’s so odd how it messes up the blog post when I add it).

Next up….how was your holiday?  We had a great Christmas here spent with family and friends.  We missed sharing the special day with our family in Oklahoma but we’ll be heading out to see them in January.  Can’t wait.  Can you believe our granddaughter turns ONE next month?
