Random comment, but I wanted to share my new favorite snack with you guys! I have always liked hummus and I know it's a healthy snack, but when you eat it with pita chips it's not that good for you anymore. Soooo, yesterday I tried to dip plain rice cakes in hummus and that was delicious! It's also obviously good to dip veggies (carrots is my favorite), but with the rice cakes you still get the crispy texture. Love it! :)

I have also started going to a kickboxing class to mix things up in the gym. I used to go to pilates on Tuesdays and before the class I always ran on the treadmill or I did the elipticle. A few of weeks ago I noticed that there is a kickboxing class right before the pilates class. I tried it and now I go back to back kickboxing and pilates on Tuesday mornings! It's awesome and it will literally kick your butt!

When it comes to golf I love my new Taylor Made r9 irons! If you haven't tried them, you should! Last week I also got the new r9 driver and it feels amazing so I'm getting really excited for the tournaments to start! 

One of my favorite drills while practicing is to play 21. It's a short game drill where you compete with a friend (in my case I challenge my dear roommate quite a bit). Both of you have two balls and the person chipping their ball closest to the hole gets 2 points, the second closest gets 1 point, and if anyone chips in they get 3 points. The winner from the previous hole picks location for the next shot and it can be anywhere from thick ruff to bunker, to an easy bump and run. You always take turns so that none of you hit two balls in a row and the first one who gets 21 points wins! :)

Today is a "take care of stuff" kind of day for me, meaning..write a blogg, answer emails, arrange my receipts from last year, meet up with a friend I haven't seen in a while for lunch, clean the apartment, and then tonight I deserve a relaxing evening at the movies! I'm going to "Dear John" with a couple of girl friends and I think it's going to be great! :)
