Roasted Crock Pot Potatoes

Today I'm posting my first recipe. It's no secret I am a meat and potatoes girl! I've been fighting some sinus yuck/cold and am craving comfort food. Last night I made my favorite potato concoction with steak of course.

What you'll need
4 Large Russet Potatoes
1 cup water
5 Tbsp butter
1 tsp pizza or Italian seasoning
1 tsp Tastefully Simple Garlic Garlic (or                regular garlic powder)
2 tsp dried onion
1/2 tsp parsley
1/4 tsp paprika
Clean and dice potatoes in bite size pieces. Place in crock pot. Cover with water. Dice up butter and arrange in potatoes. Mix all spices in a bowl and sprinkle over potatoes. Cook on high for about 2 1/2 hours. My crock pot runs cold so you may want to check them at 2 hours. I chose to serve them with steak and broccoli. Enjoy!

Pink Wednesday

I didn't grow up a girly girl. I have two brothers and mostly male cousins. My mom tried to get me into pink and dresses. I was much happier in jeans and t-shirts covered in mud. As long as my hands were clean I was good. Hey my OCD has been here a long time!
Not until recently have I appreciated girly things. There are still some things I don't do like makeup and higher end clothes. What's the point really I spend my days working out and with kids.
My favorite color is now pink! It's become my "signature" color. With that my favorite day is #PinkWednesday! It's nice looking through other TDFers' pictures and know we have an amazing sisterhood.
So my friends Happy Pink Wednesday! Or in my case Pink Everyday.

First Race of 2014

I love to run. That's no secret. What I dislike is waking up at the butt crack of dawn to run a race. So imagine my surprise and glee when I discovered virtual races. Running on my own time, where I want and I still get bling?! Where do I sign up?
So yesterday I hammered out an 8k on the treadmill. Now yes I dislike the treadmill but it got the job done. Now I have more pretty bling to add to my collection.
Thanks Run With Jess for putting on such a fun race!
