The 28-Day Squat Challenge

I wonder how much truth is in that above statement? I am not a big fan of squats, it hurts my knees more than it bothers me anywhere else. I always laugh with my husband saying I can do a plie all day but a squat pfft, I don't think so...lol....but in all seriousness I found a challenge on My Fitness Pal, it's the 28 Day Squat Challenge.

This challenge looks awesome, and if you are trying to loose weight or tone up you should give this challenge a try! You will do a different squat variation each week for a month. The variations get more difficult as the month progresses. Each day has a target number or reps for which you should aim. You can do them all in one go or spread them out throughout the day. If you fail to reach the target number of reps with perfect form you must go back to the beginning of that 7 day period. You may not have heard of each variation, so how to do them properly is explained in the My Fitness Pal Post.

Fall Simmering Potpourri

I love the smell of fall, I even like fall itself. I just don't like what follows... winter! However I love walking in my home and smelling the fall scents that are so warm and inviting. Making this simmering potpourri is extremely easy! What you'll need: Tangerine or orange peels Cloves Cinnamon sticks or ground cinnamon Vanilla extract Pumpkin pie spice Water Small crockpot, saucepan or tea kettle You can choose how much you want to put in of what, there really is no magic amount. I normally put in more of my favorite scents. If using a tea kettle or a sauce pan keep in mind you will have to keep adding water to it. If you use a crockpot you will not have to keep adding water and you can keep it on even when you're asleep. Some other ideas that you can add are: Apple juice (instead of water) Cranberries Nutmeg Anise (one of my favorites) Dried fruit Coffee beans Have you ever made a simmering potpourri pot? What do you normal...
