Fit Friday with Nichole 

Another day closer to Christmas, after rotating sick kids and crazy weather I am officially very behind on the whole getting ready part. But I know it will still be fun, magical, and pretty amazing even without all the extras done. 

 
Even with all the craziness I know that my sanity needs to workout, even if it is a short one. This week I am combing running and weights, because that is the only way I will be able to get both of them done.
 
With all the snow we have gotten I will only be visiting the track in my mind, but in all actuality I will be in my garage on the treadmill with a mat and weights near by. 
 
We are doing manmakers today. It has been a while on these. Take them slow and go through all of the movements (Push-Up, Rows, and a Squat Clean Thruster).

Alright, back to the history behind our biscotti story- so just as I put our Gingerbread Biscotti in the oven for their final baking time and I get a text from my neighbor saying there are moose in her yard!

What?!  I just had to see them.  SOoooo, I snuck over to her house and snapped the coolest pictures out her bathroom window.

The baby moose is on the right and the momma laying down to the left…

I have to tell you the coolest story that happened during the making of this Gingerbread Biscotti!  As you probably know I moved to a little cabin just outside downtown Salt Lake City last summer… I fondly refer to it as “Ruthie’s Cabin”.  

Anyways, it’s quite an amazing adventure up here in the mountains.  We completely adore it and if you follow my social media you get to see some photo’s from around my neck of the woods.

Then all the sudden the baby comes right under the bathroom window… it was the COOLEST thing ever 🙂

You’ll make the time to sit down and enjoy a cup of coffee or tea with these Gingerbread Biscotti hanging about the kitchen!

    Wow not many people can say they have a Moose in their garden! The scenery must be amazing where you are? Love these gingerbread biscotti. Although I am a real Cookie Monster and bake cookies ALL the time, to my shame I have never made biscotti. So I am setting a day aside to make a couple of batches and gingerbread is now definitely going to been one of them. Thanks for the fab recipe. Sammie

      Hi Sammie… it was so thrilling!! I’d never seen a moose before and then to see momma and baby so close was absolutely breath taking 🙂 You’ll be so glad you ventured out to the biscotti cookie world… they’re so simple to make and taste so wonderful with a cup of coffee or tea in the winter time! Happy Holidays! xoxo~ Ruthie
