Nutella Cupcakes Recipe
Today is World Nutella Day, so you knew there was no way I’d forgo posting something that utilizes this delicious Chocolate Hazlenut spread. As I have stated once or twice, I love Nutella and I’m pretty certain you could smear the stuff on a piece of cardboard and I’d be completely content! Taking a simple chocolate cupcake recipe and filling the middle with that awesome Nutella lusciousness, definitely quenches that hazelnut craving that I get more frequently than I’d like to admit. Top off with Nutella buttercream, and these are truly irresistible to those Nutella fanatics that I know are plentiful! This post is not your typical MBA post; meaning it’s not a complete recipe. The Method: -I made one of my favorite chocolate cupcake recipes according to the recipe directions (you’ll see my fave in an upcoming fundamentals post).

The Tank Top Arms workout has been one of the most popular posts on my blog, so I figured it was about time I created a follow up workout…hence Tank Top Arms Volume 2! There are still plenty of pushups and dips since those are some of the most effective exercises to work multiple muscles groups in the upper body. But, I also added an up/down plank (see a quick Vine video demo of that exercise here ) and changed up the shoulder presses and rows. Now in order to see all these beautiful muscles you’re building add an interval cardio workout to this one to burn fat! Overachievers can add this to the previous Tank Top Arms workout . Printable version is here. Happy Workout! Caitlin Happy first day of spring! We’ll do 40 seconds of high intensity intervals followed by 20 seconds of rest. Get the printable version here. If you have any questions about the exercises let me know and I’ll show you a quick how to video in Vine! -Caitlin Today’s printable workout is as easy as pi!

Splendid satisfaction in 35 seconds! |
Now here’s a sweet little sweetie that you can mix and cook in the cup and in – alright maybe 1 1/2 minutes tops – you’ll have a cute little cutie for a guilt free snack. (But it’s only 35 seconds in the microwave…so there!) Soooo good, for so not a lot of work! The best part? No huge 16-serving monstrosity sitting on your counter staring you down every time you pass by the kitchen. I’ve been experimenting with different flavors (a White Velvet and a Lemon one) so stay tuned…check back…don’t go away! If you wanted to make a “Master Mix” so that when the urge hits you can do this even quicker, multiply the dry ingredients in the recipe by 10, mix very well, and keep in an airtight container. 2 tablespoons flour 1 1/2 tablespoons Splenda Granular or Whey Low powdered 2 teaspoons unsweetened cocoa powder 1/4 teaspoon baking powder 1/8 teaspoon instant coffee crystals – optional, but brings out the chocolaty YUM! Pinch salt 2 tablespoons milk 1 teaspoon oil Drop of vanilla extract Like this:
Full Beginners Running Program | From Zero to Hero
Regardless of your fitness level, you can easily start from zero to running 20 minutes continuously in 10 weeks. The running program below, adapted from the New York Road Runners Club, does exactly that and is an example of an ten-week run/walk strategy, aimed at beginners in good health. You can do it. All it requires on your part is the commitment to go out and run 3, preferably 5 times, a week. You’ll know how often to run, by listening to your body. Depending on how often you are running, try to allow for a day of recovery between runs. Warm up before you start with a 5 – 10 minute fast walk and cool down with 5 – 10 minutes of slow walking. If you run flat out, you will be too exhausted to repeat the intervals and will probably vow to never run again. This program should suit most non-active beginners. Once you hit 20 minutes nonstop running, move on to the advanced beginners program.
