Hi Friends,

Happy Friday!!!



I've had a productive week, and now I can't wait for the weekend. 

I officially entered Sausalito's 35th annual Chili Cook Off. I'm excited, nervousness will creep in soon enough. Seems simple enough, 700 people come to taste your chili, you have to make at least 10 gallons, and there is no electricity. Whats life without a few hurtles to jump over, and I'm ready to take them on. Looking forward to meeting people in the community and marketing my business, my blog and myself. 

I'm searching for an award winning chili recipe. At first I was going to make a vegetarian chili, but instead of no meat, I decided on a healthy turkey and chicken chili. I won't be able to eat my own chili, but that fine with me.  I'm making the chili for the public, not for me. 

The next few weeks will be filled with creating banners, signs, marketing material, chili, and gathering everything I need to actually pull this off. I gave myself a $300-$400 budget. I'm hoping I can stay on track. 



I believe in myself. I know I can do this. Who's up for a challenge?? This girl is!

I'm going to Opening Day at Candlestick on Sunday, 49ers vs Packers. If you didn't know I'm a huge football fan. I love the 49ers and the Redskins. This is my favorite time of the year. Admiring all of the men in ridiculously great shape. When I'm super tired, and I don't want to do another rep, I think about all the football players that push pass there own expectations and I always find a few more reps in me. I respect anyone that works out that hard on a daily, weekly and yearly bases. I also enjoy basketball, baseball, soccer, and tennis, but football is my first love. Can't wait to drool and cheer on such strong powerful beings hit eachother, its exciting and oh so sexy. Love it. 



This weekend I'm going paddle boarding with a couple of our friends. I've been wanting to paddle board for the last year. I hear it's a crazy hard core workout, and you know that's up my alley. I'll let you guys know how it turns out. Can't wait to take a crack at it. 



Thats it for me friends. Enjoy a few pictures:
