I'm Arianna. Just another teenage girl in the zealous pursuit of health and happiness. This is not a dramatic weightloss story or a quick fix—I'm changing for good.

Track Meet

Since I’m still a bit sick and my shins are as aggravating as ever, I decided just to run the 4x100 and 4x400 today. It was an away tri-meet and the first of the league season!

We got third in the 4x100, 53.19

aaaaand first in the 4x400, 4:31 !!!!!!!!

Although our times weren’t the best, I’m happy with the results :)

I must try these…. (chocolate covered katie)
Peanut Butter Pretzel Bars
(No-bake!)
Category: My Peanut Butter Recipes.
1 cup rice crispies (30g) (either brown or white)
1/2 cup oat flour (70g) (see instructions for substitution)
1/4 tsp salt
1 tsp pure vanilla extract
5 tablespoons agave (Pure maple syrup will probably work)
3 tablespoons pb (or other nut butter) (Or you can switch the proportions of peanut butter to agave.)
optional: handful of broken-up pretzels (I didn’t measure)
optional: double batch PB Magic Shell
Combine all dry ingredients. In a separate (large) bowl, combine wet and stir to form a thin paste. (If you store your pb in the fridge, you should warm it a little for easier mixing.) Pour dry into wet (not the other way around), and stir until evenly coated. Line a baking dish or tupperware container with a large piece of wax paper and pour the mixture into the dish. Fold the extra paper over the mixture and squish down as hard as you possibly can! Use a heavy object to really press it down. (The mixture will fill a 7×5, or about 2/3 an 8×8.) Stick the mixture in the fridge or freezer to harden before cutting into bars. Makes 6 bars.
