Spring Break In Salt Lake City

March 30, 2015

This past week has been my spring break, although it really hasn’t felt like it. I still have a ton of assignments to finish although it’s been really nice to spend it in Salt Lake City and not have to go into work (I work part-time on campus back in San Francisco).

After a full week of staring at my laptop and trying to get all my school work finished, I decided that I needed to relax and do something FUN! Saturday was such a gorgeous day, so my husband and I went to get Mexican food from Cafe Rio (so delicious) and then we went to Red Butte Garden and Arboretum.

 My husband ordered the incredible looking smothered burrito (yes, SMOTHERED!) and I got a cancun shrimp taco with beans and rice.

On Sunday, we went to Penny Ann’s for brunch where I got the Oregon omelette with sourdough toast and a hot chocolate and my husband got the pork chili verde skillet with hot cakes (highly recommended if you want to go all out). Later on that afternoon, we went hiking on Desolation Trail. Hiking is such a fun and social way to be active and soak up some beautiful scenery; I actually wrote about things to do before you go hiking in this post. Plus you get to wear cute workout clothes and get a tan (something which I desperately need)!

Wearing my new Lorna Jane top, Victoria’s Secret Sports bra (my new favorite), shorts from Cottonon and my good ol’ Asics (similar here).

HAHAHA, I wanted to take photos that made it look like we were falling off the mountain … I’m an idiot I know 😛

I feel so excited to move to Salt Lake City after graduation. There are so many outdoors activities to do and the community is very health and fitness oriented. They have tons of yoga and fitness centers, Whole Foods and Sprouts (where I can continue buying my favorite coconut water, yay!) so it feels a lot like California. Don’t get me wrong, it’ll be weird to have to uproot and move again but I am open to change and excited for this new chapter. Plus, once my husband finishes his PhD the plan is to move back to California so it helps to know that this isn’t a lifetime change.

How was your weekend? Do any of you from Salt Lake City know what the best hiking trail is??

Honestly yours,
Alice

P.S. CONGRATULATIONS to everyone (myself included) who was part of The Kayla Movement and completed the BBG 1.0. Well done!! Will you be continuing to 2.0 or redoing 1.0? I am moving onto 2.0, gulp, wish me luck!

    Chickpeas are having a moment and I’m HERE for c Chickpeas are having a moment and I’m HERE for chickpea oats! @chickpeaoats almost have a somewhat nutty texture which I found quite appealing— so far, I’ve tried their original and dark chocolate flavors and I’m a fan! I won’t lie, it’s not *quite* what you’d call oatmeal but it’s warming, filling, easy to make and I love the nutritional stats — plus, they’re a woman owned company 🥰
    TORSAP THAI KITCHEN REVIEW (Carlsbad) ✨ As some TORSAP THAI KITCHEN REVIEW (Carlsbad) ✨  As someone who is half-Thai, I’m always VERY excited by new Thai restaurants. This did not disappoint! As a fan of OSHA Thai in the Bay Area, their menu was created by their executive chef. The food quality was EXCELLENT, and I personally loved the blend of fun, Thai fusion. Come for the food, fantastic and fun cocktails and great experience. If you want some food and drink recs, here’s what we had:
* Timba Tequila
* Murky Mezcal
* Appetizer: Tom yum soup and satay
* Family style main: kobe beef, Khao soi chicken noodle curry and garlic pepper chicken
* Dessert: Thai tea crepe cake (yes, it’s a must!) #torsapthaikitchen #torsapthaikitchencarlsbad #thairestaurantscarlsbad #carlsbadrestaurants #carlsbadthairestaurants #sandiegorestaurants
    Maldives is heaven on earth ✨ Feeling the post Maldives is heaven on earth ✨  Feeling the post vacation blues HARD after leaving the perfect @angsana.velavaru 🥹 If you’re considering visiting, DO IT! We split our time between a beach bungalow on the private island (with a fabulous infinity pool and our own slice of the beach) and one of the unreal In-Ocean villas. Cannot say enough good words about this resort and their friendly and professional staff—truly some of the best service ever. Miss diving in the Indian Ocean and being in the water 24/7, where being active everyday was just part of having fun 🥰
    Don’t think I’d be upset if I were stranded at Don’t think I’d be upset if I were stranded at @angsana.velavaru 😎 Truly a dreamy island paradise ✨
    Workouts in paradise ✨ Not sure there’s anyth Workouts in paradise ✨ 
Not sure there’s anything like the feeling of finishing a KILLER @fitbodyapp upper body Tone workout, and then walking out of the gym and seeing the color of this water. Maldivian island life certainly agrees with me 🥰
    Gut-healthy puff snacks GIVEAWAY ✨ Let’s keep Gut-healthy puff snacks GIVEAWAY ✨  Let’s keep the National Nutrition Month party going with another GIVEAWAY!! It’s hard to believe these prebiotic puffs from @upliftfood are healthy—they’re SO GOOD! They’re the perfect snack or meal accompaniment. Here’s how to win a pack of each flavor:  1. Follow me.
2. Follow @upliftfood 
3. Tag a friend (tag as many as you want, each new comment is a new entry.  As a bonus entry, send this reel to a friend and then DM me to let me know. You have until 5pm PT on Sunday, 3/27 to enter ☺️  First and foremost, I love this product because it’s tasty (the sea salt and apple cider vinegar flavor is my absolute faaave). And they’re a wonderful, healthy snack containing a great amount of protein, fiber, and of course, prebiotic and probiotics. Prebiotics feed probiotics.
When your gut bacteria is nourished with prebiotics, our gut health improves. According to the @upliftfood gut experts,  a healthy gut leads to reduced inflammation, a stronger immune system, better digestion, and a supported mood among many other things. Sounds good to me!!! 🙌🏼🙌🏼
    Gut-healthy green smoothie and GIVEAWAY ✨  Let’s kick off National Nutrition Month with a tasty smoothie and GIVEAWAY (the first one this month, stay tuned for more)! By using just one scoop of @upliftfood’s daily vanilla uplifter, you’ve added in everything you need for a gut-healthy smoothie. To win, all you need to do is:  1. Follow me.

3. Tag a friend (tag as many as you want, each new comment is a new entry.  As a bonus entry, send this reel to a friend and then DM me to let me know. You have until 5pm PT on Sunday, 3/13 to enter ☺️  I love this product because a) it’s tasty (most important haha) and b) it’s freaking good for you. It contains prebiotic soluble fiber (8g of it!), prebiotic resistant starch which feeds the probiotics in the powder. It also contains vitamin D, magnesium, and is low in sugar and carbs. Good gut health helps increase the absorption of minerals and is linked to lower levels of inflammation (great for recovery), and improved immunity which prevents illness and decreases recovery time 🥰 #giveaway #greensmoothies #guthealthy
    “Short on time” dinner ✨ There are some day “Short on time” dinner ✨  There are some days where I’ll come back from errands and I’m WIPED out. Ain’t nobody got time to cook on nights like that. You know I love Real Good Foods and their mozzarella parmesan & fontina cheese bacon wrapped stuffed chicken is to die for 😍 They have an insane sale going on at Costco which lasts until October 25th. So head on over and stock up on easy, low carb and tasty dinners!!  What’s your go to dinner?
