Work, Shoes, and Rocco

I have decided I want to be Pippa’s bff.

She seems so badass.

I’m sorry, but let me admire True Blood’s star Rutina Wesley’s legs for a moment.

And oh my gosh. I love you Khloe Kardashian.

Okay, okay. I’m done. Now onto more important matters like…

it was my first day working at Zupan’s!

I work in the bakery/Peet’s Coffee. It was just super overwhelming trying to remember all the codes to ringing up sweets and such. I liked it. I hope I get the hang of it soon. I get free samples of cakes after all. Holla.

I got my first paycheck yesterday and it basically makes up for new pair of running shoes.

I’m on a limb here, people. I was iffy about every shoe I tried on, but I think that is just because I want my foot to get better so I’m being really picky. I don’t even know how my shoes should feel on anymore.

I bought these:

Adidas adiZero Tempo 4

- Very lightweight
- Provides adaptive mid-foot support; pro-moderator medial support device prevents overpronation

I ran like ten minutes in them yesterday, but tomorrow I will definitely take them on a longer run (hoping my foot cooperates) so I know if I want to keep them or get the New Balance 1190 instead. So far I like them. I have not found a bad review yet.

I have never owned a pair of Adidas running shoes so I’m nervous to give them a shot. You don’t see too many runners with Adidas shoes. The guy at the Portland Running Co. said that they looked like they fit my feet pretty well while I jogged in them. He seemed to know what he was talking about and he was cute. That’s a plus. We conversed about Blink 182… and running, obviously.

I also finally received Rocco Dispirito’s book!

Ignore my appearance. I just got back from spinning and of course decided to eat over showering.

I am so excited to try his recipes! FYI, I’m not on a diet, but come on – who doesn’t love Rocco? I’ve been loving him since he’s been on Dancing With the Stars.

I am learning a lot actually about him and food.

Dijon Mustard is a great flavor in terms of touching up the taste of food. It only has 15 calories a tablespoon.
Rocco trains for triathlons
There is such a thing s negative calorie foods like asparagus, mushrooms, broccoli, and cabbage.

There are so many great recipes too. I am definitely going to try out Rocco’s blueberry vanilla smoothie, blueberry graham cheesecake oatmeal, and eggplant torta.

Gosh darn this Rocco man is incredible and not to mention good looking.

My mom already stole the book from me. No problem. Take it. It’s cool, mom.

Honorable eats:

Salmon kebab

Lemon chocolate tart
Carrot cake
Banana pineapple cake

Ever owned a pair of Adidas?
How about that Rocco?
What was your first job? Or what is your dream job?
