Whew, that was a busy one! My finals schedule was as follows:
Sunday 7:25 pm – 9:25 pm
Monday 7:45 am – 9:45 am
Today 10:05 am – 12:05 pm
Tomorrow 7:45 am – 9:45 am… but it is open notes!
Needless to say, the past few days have involved a lot of this,

And even more breakfast quinoa…

this time in the gorgeous Udon Bowl that Flavour Design sent me. Those little holes and dips along the top are for the chopsticks that come with it. It fits so perfectly in my hand, like it was meant to…and will be up in my shop soon!

In the craziness that ended up being my finals week, I didn’t get to post as many Push-Up tips as I would have liked. So, check out the comments section for some great ideas. And while you’re there, feel free to leave stories of your take on the challenge, links to any posts you have about the workouts, any questions you may have, and tips of your own!

Has anyone ever had cold-brewed tea? I tried making some Strawberry Oolong cold-brewed last night, and it is so good. It lets me really pick up on the fruity flavors in the tea!

Good luck with finals!!!
A final on Sunday? That’s not nice!
But yay for almost being done!!!
Yeah, I think I’ve had one on Mother’s Day every year for the past 5 years!
Good luck! sounds like you’re basically done. I have 1 more, too, but it’s not until next Tuesday, and waiting is going to suck
How is it that you can have finals on the weekends?! I mean, yeah for you being done!!! But what the heck? Taking away your weekend? Yikes.
Also? That bowl is adorable. I kinda want one. Nowish.
Pardon me for sounding dumb, but what’s cold-brewed tea? :/ As a tea lover, I feel like I should know this!
It isn’t dumb, I just learned about it last week myself. I have a post coming up on it soon!
Basically, you just put the tea leaves in a pitcher filled with water in the refrigerator overnight…in the morning, you have chilled tea ready to go!
I love quinoa, but I’ve never had it for breakfast. Everytime I see it in the blog world, I want to try it but I’m nervous!
I just wanted to tell you that I love the new layout of your posts. The three sections make the information really organized and easy to read.
Also that bowl is sooooo cute!
That’s a crazy finals schedule! Hope they all went well!
Mmmm… that breakfast quinoa looks so good! I actually just had quinoa this past weekend (have been drooling over your recipes for some time, but haven’t gotten around to making it for myself quite yet…)– it starred in a fabulous side salad at the family mother’s day celebration
Good luck on your last final (today!) — I’m sending good thoughts your way!
I have a similar mug – but it says tree hugger on it. Love it!
Your breakfasts look amazing – I need to check out the recipe!
Congratulations on being finished!!!!!!!!!!!!! Woowhooooo!
Congrats on wrapping this year up!!! WOO!
