During our workout today, I ran into some tall guy and hit my nose right on his chest bone. Talk about seeing stars! We both hit at full force and I was the casualty. It’s tender and bruised and if it keeps up, I will see the doc.

We did a team workout —

100 single jump ropes
box jumps
sit ups
Starjumps

While one team mate does the 100 reps, the rest of the team keeps plugging away at the other stations and when they are done – you go to the next one. Our team got almost 1000 reps total.

I am going to try this recipe this week: Bacon Wrapped Sweet Potato Fries

Ingredients

• 2 medium sweet potatoes, cut into thin matchsticks
• 8 oz bacon, don’t use thick cut

Instuctions

Get your oven to 425°F and place your oven rack in the center of the oven.

Slice each piece of bacon in half, lengthwise and then in half, widthwise. So you’ll have 4 strips cut from 1 piece of bacon. Wrap 1 strip of bacon around 1 matchstick sweet potato. Lay on a baking sheet that’s been lined with a silicone pat or parchment paper. Repeat until all the bacon is gone. If you have left over sweet potatoes, toss ‘em on the pan too, they’ll cook beautifully in all the rendered bacon fat.

Bake for 15 minutes until the sweet potatoes feel soft. Then turn the oven to broil and let the tops get crispy.
