Well I did it. Managed to survive another day. Still spamming around a few of you but I think we’re slowly resolving this, eh?
That being said, I also managed to take pictures of food Wednesday! woohoo! Cheers all around please!! Trust me, this whole computer thing has thrown me for a loop, so small accomplishments totally MAKE MY DAY! As they should, right Heather? hehe.
Its WIAW and WIWW. It’s also 103F outside and when that happens, the Cotters crave two things……

get on it girl, melt the buttah.! make it creamy and add in some greek yogurt. WOW, there's an idea.;) Lindsay ________________________________
The loops were only quarter mile so it was a mile warm up, a mile total between sets, and then you can the option of a mile cool down. So 3 miles. But for some non runners, I'd advise only the 2 miles. You totally can take up though to however many miles. Just depends on how hard you want to go, ya know?I bet you'd love it! Lindsay ________________________________
I LOVEYOUR WORKOUT!! did you run 4 miles total or just repeat the exercises not the running? 103 degrees!!! holy shmokes!
WHY haven't I thought of using nut butter as dressing?! you're so smart. 🙂
Deal!
oh what is the recipe?? I'm dying to know! Lindsay ________________________________
oh I know you like this kind of workout! A good sweat fest indeed.Youre hard core! Lindsay ________________________________
sounds like we're craving the same things. Just need some of that cool beach weather! Lindsay ________________________________
yes we do, can i come visit you? I'll bring food! 😛 Lindsay ________________________________
I'd kill for some 80F weather right now. I think thats our low.ha ha, sad! Lindsay ________________________________
oh so good to hear from you!! are you? I've missed your sweet posts. Can't wait to catch up. Lindsay ________________________________
oh I know! those are strawberries! I've been trying to comment on your blog but can't. BOO! any yoga this week? Lindsay ________________________________
some day we need a WIAW together. How cool would that be? and of course a glass of Riesling! Lindsay ________________________________
WIAW and WIWW makes me wish every single week I lived in Austin! well it makes me wish I lived next door to you- wherever you would be! 😉 those eats are yummy! I'm lovin the blueberries too right now too but mine never make it to be incorporated to a meal…I eat them too fast. hehehe
Hi Lindsay! Wow.. way to go on the workout in that heat.. that's hot! That's great you treated yourself to an ice cream.. that never hurts now does it 🙂 Sorry to hear about your computer.. tech problems are no fun but its nice when you have a friend to fix it! Glad to be back and hear how are you doing 🙂
oh girl you dinner eats are totally WIAW worthy! Lindsay ________________________________
Wow, your WIAW looks amazing! I need to step it up if I'm ever going to participate in WIAW, lol! That stir fry looks fab!
gosh I can't even imagine it being so hot!! Here it was around 80° tops today and that's too hot for me!! I don't think you spammed me, which is good. that breakfast is amazing- is it as thick and creamy as it looks? and nut butter is SO a topping. No reason why it can only be a spread. I use it as a dip and a drizzle, you name it!
Look at you gettin your curb workout on! I love when I can get a good workout even without going to the gym. That ice cream pick is adorable! And I need to try your breakfast bisque, it looks awesome!
I'm so gld the spamming problem got better! (Sooooo annyoing! :O) Actually, I look forward to your WIAW posts every week, because they never disaapoint me – I always see something totally delicious! Like the dinner stir fry today. In fact, the biisque and bread I'd seen before, otherwise I would have to name them as well! 😀
What a great and resourceful workout! The weather here is cool and dreary lately (gotta love June at the beach), but I crave spicy food and cool smoothies/kombucha/ice cream no matter the temps outside!
nice workout! sounds like a tough one! I love doing workouts outside it makes it so much more enjoyable!
haha! I have visions of you getting funny looks from passers-by as you bash-out some exercises on the curb!oh. my. gosh. do I have a genius recipe for you coming up! no idea why, but when I was making it I was burning to tell you… probably to get my own back for your Larabar love/ references that I can't buy anymore! :-p
I can't get over how awesome that bisque looks!!! Looking at the recipe right now 🙂
I do have a blog. It is haveyourwaywithme.blogspot.com
Your food photos are so totally gorgeous – made me HUNGRY! We're finally getting warm weather here – and it sounds like y'all need a break from the crazy heat! I'm just started to enjoy it!
how can it be?? I thought you guys were near 100 the other day? weird. But take the cool weather and enjoy free AC. haha. Lindsay ________________________________
man oh man, i wish I had that weather right now. all i want to do is watch a movie with a blanket while its raining outside. Its only raining drops of humidity here. ha!glad you got your butt to the gym though.;) Lindsay ________________________________
oh yea, another ice cream queen! whats your go to flavor? Wish they had an almond butter flavor, haha. Lindsay ________________________________
i keep my almond butter at room temp for that reason. melted!! Hope you had your kombucha today.:) Lindsay ________________________________
oh my gosh I saw that on your blog!! looked fantastic! i need to recreate that for sure.;) Lindsay C________________________________
we are doing well! its good to have my main squeeze home! And too funny, i bought coconut water today too. Lindsay ________________________________
i wish I had all the money in the world to fly you over and come to my class! really, i would! Lindsay ________________________________
oh you gotta report back when you do it, k?! Lindsay ________________________________
of course you do. I think we share in the same food loves! My foodie friend.:) Lindsay ________________________________
totally. I don't Dallas is that much cooler, right? Enjoy that ice cream girl, you need that extra pampering with a little one coming! Lindsay ________________________________
yes, to be a kid during summer is the best, right? I think we all need that mentality! Lindsay ________________________________
i'm tellin ya, its brutal. Might as well inject ice cream in me. haha. Lindsay ________________________________
ice cream party maybe? Wish I could comment on your blog jen. It would not let me yesterday. I'll try again! Lindsay ________________________________
oh ya, sweet tea for sure. With peaches maybe? By the way, I commented on you blog but I think it went to spam. Lindsay________________________________
I can't believe it is SOO Stinkin hot there already. I would probably be living on icecream. You are absolutely adorable and all of your food always looks so Yummy! Good luck beating the heat. 🙂
I love that smile on your face! We definitely have to enjoy every moment we can and we don't always have to be grown up about it! Your eats look amazing! I hope you have a great day today Lindsay!
I like when you do WIAW! Drool-worthy. I think I can always have room for ice cream – that's pretty much my motto for the summer.
love your food for the day! and yes i use nut butters like that too-YUM!
love the workout! thanks for sharing- will be doing it very soon!
forget the desert, come here. humidity and 103F. Does wonders for the skin! haha. Can I lure you with endless bowls of smoothies? Or perhaps endless goblets of wine? 😉 Lindsay ________________________________
Man I want to come to your classes SO BADLY!! They sound like SO much fun!! And I'm jealous of your heat!! Its not even sunny here, what's new?! :PAnd ice cream is the BEST for cooling down!! And mint chic chip is definitely one of my faves!! I LOVE your WIAWs!! 😀
Those are my favorite types of workouts. Lately I haven't been doing much cardio- only circuits with some plyo- just love them. Prisoner squats? Never done those! 103? ugh! I think it got to 63 today at the coast. Brrr. But tomorrow I head to the desert and I think it's about 105. Best of both worlds?? Your bisque- it looks suspiciously like a smoothie! 😉
Whoo 103! So necessary to have ice cream on a day like that- no matter what!
Uh, the Dove dark chocolate ice cream bar I just savored did a great job of cooling me down and taking the edge off a rough afternoon. In the heat of the day, however, I like a big (non sweet) iced tea. Lots and lots of ice. Extra points if it is sonic ice. 🙂
Oh goodness…now I want ice cream! 🙂
Mmmm, ice cream….I could eat it any time, any place.I had a coconut water that was very refreshing today, but it WAS only 70 degrees here…sweltering I know.Love to see that lovely smile, hope you and your main squeeze are having happy days this week.
me and my brother and sister split a dessert chimichanga with vanilla ice cream inside tonight…it was AMAZING. and the perfect way to cool off! yum! I am loving your food choices today…always look so delicious 🙂
Your meal creations always look delicious and PACKED with all the important vitamins and nutrients. You really are a Nutrition Manager supreme! I've been eating an insane amount of almond butter. I can't get enough. My favorite is with bananas, but I need to drizzle it over a mixed fruit salad, too.
Sounds good to me! Refreshing.;)
I want your weather! Tough call on the snack. Maybe a little of both, eh?Is nick back yet? Hope so! <3LC
i mixed up cottage cheese, greek yogurt, & cold egg whites – yes it sounds weird, but it was delicious & cooling! 🙂
Whoops, I meant 4x max. Even one time would be awesome!
Oh my goodness this post made me laugh out loud! First of all, all of your food choices for the day look AMAZING. I am going to try the almond butter dressing as a side dish. Love that idea! I cannot consume enough AB these days. High-Fives to the ice cream as well. I'm going to stop by to pick some up tomorrow night after work. Desperately craving some fro-yo with a sinful topping. Have a great night! xoxo
The weather cooled me off today. It was cold and rainy. I went to the gym, which was really really hard to motivate to do and then slept all afternoon. Cooling off was not an issue.
Unfortunately there was no need to cool of here today, I'm not sure it even hit 70. Instead we warmed up cooking in the kitchen which can get hard to do when it's really hot here, a perfect way to spend the rainy evening.
yey for your wonderful pics! 🙂 I don't blame you for being happy given what tech problems have surfaced lately! mmm ice cream. I just got back from dinner with my buddy and can't decide whether I want ice cream or a protein muffin of some sort. It's only 60 degrees here! :PI LOVE your workout! I am going to keep all of those moves in mind for when I just want to do my strength training outside in the sunshine! 🙂
So I was reading the workout details and thought – wow, that sounds like an intense workout but I think I could totally do that…then I got to the bottom and read "Repeat 4x". Lol… how do you even have energy to type after that? Wow! 🙂
oh cheers to that! hope you thoroughly enjoyed it. Lindsay ________________________________
oh good idea! frozen yogurt by hand. love it! Lindsay ________________________________
sick?! this can't be!?! I keep telling you to try kombucha. It will cure you!! Feel better friend.Lindsay ________________________________
oh tahini, thats another favorite dressing. Sadly, I am out. Thanks for the reminder HEAB. Lindsay ________________________________
everyone looks cuter with an ice cream cone, right?? hehe. Lindsay ________________________________
whats a flurry with buckeyes?? Do tell! Lindsay ________________________________
oh sweet! summer time staple for sure. what flavor? Lindsay ________________________________
I had a very large glass of kombucha today…always hits the spot on a hot day
I had icecream just about 20 min ago, it's amazing! summertime staple.
That also looks like an awesome workout, and all the food looks DELICIOUS as usual!!

I ate ice cream today as well. I ate a flurry with buckeyes in it. It is only appropriate since I do live in the BUCKEYE state!! I def. didnt run today. I wasnt feeling it, and now I wish I had of worked out since I ate ice cream 🙁 It was a rather dull day in Ohio today, so I def. didnt need the ice cream, but I was totally feeling it tho.
You are so cute with your icecream!!
I always use sunbutter or tahini straight up as dressing…on EVERYTHING. No shame. 🙂
SO jealous of the ice cream – it's all I want to sooth this sort throat of mine that's REALLY bugging me. Feeling like I'm coming down with something but MUST resist it. NOT SICK. See? Being an optimist – let's hope it works and I wake up tomorrow good as new!! Love your eats today, they look SO GOOD!!
Awesome workout!!!!!And all of your food looks delicious!!! I put some yogurt in the freezer to have today as a snack! 😀
oh yes, grapes! that reminds me. I need to freeze some grapes! Lindsay ________________________________
and I slept like a baby after. Oh to be a kid again. haha. Lindsay ________________________________
I love your workouts — they always sound so intense!What food cooled me off today — strawberries and grapes — I feel like I am eating them by the pound!
Yes ma'am it's those little things including a mint chocolate chip ice cream cone!

Yum yum yum!!! I just bought that Larabar flavor but haven't tried it yet.
Cantaloupe cooled me off today!! Your WIAW eats look lovely. Nut butter seems like a DELICIOUS dressing 😀
One time I stored a Kombucha in a weird place in my fridge and it got just the right amount of icy…it was AMAZING. ICE COLD, baby. (Probably killed some bacteria but all's well.)Bring on the heat. We can take it.
I am drooling over that fruit salad with nut butter! Looks great! Your stir fry looks pretty tasty too!
