Help me pick a new name (and identity and move and start a new life)

Hello! I have two very important things to talk about – 1. An Update on Invisalign (video) and 2. Name that Ginger and a potential name change.

Invisalign Week 3 Update

I’m on week 3 of Invisalign and I’m getting used to talking with it. But I still think the anchors make it Visalign (get it, without the invisible part)?

I am having trouble eating before and during running and races. This is an issue I need to figure out.

I did an easy 6 miles this morning and then some Beach Body upper fix. Then, a big ‘ol smoothie with granola and nuts.

I spy pretty flowers courtesy of the 99 cent store. Love!

And my favorite thing after watermelon… popcorn. I cannot be controlled with these super huge bags and demolished this one in 26 hours.

I scored chopped onions and bell peppers at the store and used them to make fajitas. I love onions but my eyes water crazy style when I chop them – so pre-chopped onions make me very happy.

I had a serious need for something sweet and threw together sweet potato muffins. I made a lot of sweet potatoes in the crockpot earlier this week and had some to use up. I used sweet potato, oats, maple syrup, cinnamon and an egg. I am not positive about the amounts because I can’t decide if the texture was exactly what I wanted, but they were really good!

Name that ginger…

Andy Cohen’s show Watch What Happens is in LA this week. I haven’t been watching it lately because I have Sling and can’t record. Whatev. But I’ve caught it this week and it’s extra fun.

Today they played a game with Conan O’Brien – Name that Ginger! Conan had to guess the name of each redhead sitting in the front row. It was super random, he didn’t get one right, but it was cute.
