I have my "2nd Mama" to thank for our delicious Bimbo Bolognese. She has a quaint little garden where she grew this Bimbo some DELICIOUS red and green tomatoes. They were perfect and totally the inspiration for our sauce. Plus, I totes documented the whole thing- old school- with my digital camera, just so she could see. It was absolutely delicious and I'm so glad I made enough to freeze for later! Ps- (crockpots scare the s**t out of me... I was literally terrified all day it was on... but it turned out to be perfectly safe. Such a worry wart.) Here's the recipe! Ingredients: 1 Medium White Onion - Chopped 2 Cloves of Garlic- Chopped 4 Large Tomatoes (boiled, peeled, chopped) 8 Baby Tomatoes (green and red- boiled, peeled, chopped) 15oz Can of Tomato Sauce 8 oz H2O 1 Tbsp Olive Oil 1 Tsp. Salt 1/2 Pkg of Ground Turkey Heres's the How to! (so easy! This B is all about easy) First (it's recommended to) boil the tomatoes, peel them, and chop them up. I'm a newbie - so I just chopped em' the heck up. Then I turned my crock pot (terror instilled) on to low. Set them on a plate. Chopped up my onion (very finely- I Just like them for the flavor). Chopped up some garlic, and set them both with the toms - Veggie portion DONE! Next, I took a tiny smidge of the onions and garlic, threw it in a pan with some EVOO and browned the turkey. && lastly, I put my turkey into the crockpot, then the veggies, then all the other ingredients- and I let that sucker cook on low for like 9 hours. When I got home, my taste buds were IN HEAVEN. Delicious, super easy, and literally cooked while I was gone. The Crockpot is the new black. And all you Bimbos need one. Xo Bimbos, Gab |

After getting into a post working day "couch potato" rut, I woke up one morning at 4:30 and thought.... Hmm.. maybe I should work out BEFORE work? Bimbos- I'm. So. Glad. I. Did. I work about 10-12 hours a day 6-7 days a week... I'm exhausted by the time 7 p.m hits. Sometimes all I want is to go home and go to bed (and it's still light outside...). So I thought, the gym opens at 5... let's see how this goes. 4:30 a.m, I woke up, hopped out of bed, threw on some workout wear, and headed out! The first day I KNEW this was exactly what I had been searching for. I finally figured out my workout routine! Since then, I've been hitting up the gym at 5 am, Monday-Thursday. I have had SO much more energy, I'm never tired at work (well, HARDLY), and have def decreased my coffee consumption (it was getting really out of control...). I'm so much happier (just ask my co-workers) and full of life throughout the entire day. And I feel pretty damn good about myself after kicking each morning's ass. Some days I do weights, some days you can catch me on the treadmill, and some days, I do both! Plus the gym at 5 am is way less crowded than the gym at 5 p.m. I like to call it my "G" (get it?) time. Honestly, it makes all the difference in my day. Elle Woods wasn't kidding when she said, "Exercise gives you endorphins, and endorphins make you happy."
And happy people don't kill their co-workers. ;) Xo Bimbos, Gab |
