Obsession (not a TV show this time!) : Quest Bars! Was turned onto to these by blogilaties which I talk about a lot because Cassey Ho and My personal trainer have helped me transform my lifestyle. As well as a friend who helps me with my diet! Ok so these bars, I honestly can not speak highly enough of them:) There are so many great flavors and they are meant to replace a meal, snack, or dessert! I have tried to flavors, banana nut and cookie dough. Cookie dough is my favorite and I won a free box of apple pie flavor from blogilaties! Cassey does this great series with Quest called Cooking Clean with Quest. New recipes once a week! Here are some pics and this weeks recipe:
I feel horrible I haven't blogged in a month! I have been so busy with the new tri and was busy with the end of the last one I just never got around to it! But today I am home and had some time to bake so I decided to try a Clean Eats recipe from blogilaties.com which is currently in the oven! I hope you try it too:) It is clean Banana Bread that is fast to put together and very healthy! I am very excited to have some for breakfast tomorrow!
*Note: I added a pinch of baking soda and a pinch of baking powder to make it fluffy

Now, my friends and I used white chocolate because we thought milk would be too much:) My biggest tip is to freeze them for a bit longer then ten minutes, they will be easier to dip in the chocolate this way. Have a wonderful night, Maria xoxo

Thoughts??? Obsession: The Selection Series I have recently been reading The Divergent Series at home as I blogged last week. But I am in Best Sellers at school and for my third book I chose to read The Selection! I am almost finished with it and oh goodness it is incredible, almost a tie with divergent, since its review says it is a combination of divergent and the bachelor!:) Here are the books in order, only the first two are out right now:)
Snow day number six is awesome:) chilling and getting things done at the same time:) Today's Movie: Winter's Tale This movie looks really good and I am planning to see it:)
Plus Jessica Brown Findlay from Downton Abbey is in it! Today's Music: Beautiful Things~Gungor
This song makes me cry because of how connected I feel to God when I sing it!
What a wonderful short week it has been! Today's Obsession is recent and quite major haha: DIVERGENT book trilogy and future movies:) This book is beyond addicting and incredibly written! I can't believe I didn't read it sooner. If you loved the hunger games this is right up your alley! I am on the second book Insurgent right now:) Here are the covers:
And here is the movie poster and trailer, which makes much more sense once you read the book! :
This movie is perfectly cast in my opinion!!!!!! SO PUMPED TO SEE IT!
So today is the last post of the week because of the winter retreat I am going on this weekend starting right after school friday! I am feeling much better by the way:) Today's Obsession: Dance Academy So I am not sure I have blogged about this before. I love it, and hate that this third season is the last. It airs in Australia before it is put on Netflix. Season one and two are on Netflix and the third season is on youtube:) It is fantastic and I am so glad my friend showed it to me sophomore year:)
Here is the season one trailer:) Also here are some cast pics from all three seasons
Home sick today, feeling somewhat better at this point in the day:) Today's Wardrobe inspiration: Jenna Dewan-Tatum Known for: Step Up, Witches of East End

This whole cold thing has caused me to forget about my blog for a moment but Im back, and hoping I will wake up tomorrow feeling much better. Music
National Anthem- Lana Del Ray I have listened to it ten times this week, I am obsessed with her voice! Movie: A walk to Remember Classic that I have seen so many times its ridiculous
