Quote of the Week


Greetings!
  

 

Happy New Year!  2011 is upon us.  For those of you who were able to work out this morning, thank you so much for your hard work!  I am so excited that you wanted to start your new year off with a good, hard, work out!  This is a great time of year to get re-motivated. 

 

I know that a lot of us have had amazing 2010's.  Full of getting healthy and fit.  Losing weight.  Gaining strength and confidence.  Making new habits and new friends.  Accomplishing and sometimes smashing our goals.  Let's take the momentum that we created this morning and all of last year and make 2011 our best year yet.  Be proud of what you have done and how far you have come, but allow yourself to dream big and decide where you want to go in 2011.

 

You can do anything you set your mind to.  Believe in yourself and do what you have to do, no matter how hard it seems, and you can accomplish anything.  My 2010 is a true testament to that, and with determination and hard work, I am going to do everything I can to ensure 2011 is the same! 

 

Have a wonderful day!   Happy New Year!  Love, Emily

Pumpkin Muffins

 

1/2 c coconut flour (you can find this at Naturally Yours it is in the gluten free aisle)

1 t cinnamon
1/2 t nutmeg
1/4 t cloves
1/2 t baking soda
1/2 t salt
1/2 c pumpkin
6 eggs, at room temperature
4 T lightly melted coconut oil or butter  (I used half butter, half coconut oil)
1/3 c honey  (I used 2 T)
1 t vanilla
1/4 c chopped nuts I did not put nuts in the class muffins that I made, but I have used almonds and they turned out delicious!)
 
Preheat oven to 400.  Grease muffin tins (I even spray the muffin liners so they come out easier). Sift the dry ingredients into a small bowl and set aside.  Put the pumpkin in a larger bowl, add eggs one at a time mixing well with each one.  Add melted oil or butter, honey, and vanilla and mix well.  Add flour mixture.  Blend with a whisk until most of the lumps are gone.  Fold in nuts.  Fill tins 2/3 full.  Bake 18-20 minutes.  A toothpick will be "clean" when they are ready.

"Don't let the fear of the time it will take to accomplish something stand in the way of your doing it. The time will pass anyway; we might just as well put that passing time to the best possible use."
