A Cake and a Smoothie

Six years ago, when Matt turned 20, he told me that his favorite type of cake was; “confetti cake with chocolate frosting”.

nothings changed since then, really

Six years later, that is still what I bake for him on his birthday, and this year was no different.

When it comes to cake, to me, the frosting is the best part of the whole experience.

In fact, I’d take a container full of creamy chocolate frosting over the cake any day!

Especially chocolate fudge frosting, which is what I used today.

It took some will power to keep the spatula aimed towards the cake instead of at my mouth.

  • Jenna: 1
  • Chocolate covered Spatula: 0

While I waited for the cake to cool, I completed day 3 of Insanity and let me tell you, my calves are SO ANGRY!

Damn you Shaun T!

My body is definitely responding to the workouts, and it’s a whole new level of “hardcore training”. No matter how in shape you think you are, he will  have you sweating buckets all over the floor.

But you feel so good when your done!

I replenished my shaking muscles with a green smoothie, topped with Kashi and some fresh blueberries

Does a body good.

Off to spend some time with the birthday boy!

  1. 1. that cake looks delicious &…

    2. my husband was offered a job in kuwait, so that’s where we are now.. needless to say it’s farrr to hot outside to go for runs, and the gyms are just ridiculously expensive. I decided to order the insanity dvds to keep me in shape, lets hope they get here soon so I don’t have to keep doing other home workouts.. anyhow, how do you like insanity so far?

    oh & happy birthday to the boy :) Have a wonderfulll weekend of celebrating

  2. Thank you! I really like it, but I do think that the infomercials are a bit much. Shaun T definitley didnt get his body from Insanity alone, it’s much more cardio, power and stamina. Awesome workout tho! :)
