This is a blog set up for the sole purpose of uniting our neighborhood and community. This is a blog that you can participate in if you wish, or just have fun reading! It's up to you! No pressure! There are so many women with brilliant ideas and useful information and we want to hear about it! This isn't the place for political, racial, or religious opinions, just light, fun and positive remarks! I hope you enjoy your visit to this little blog that allows us to "talk around the block!"

Fitness Class Boot Camp Style

Lauretta gets all the credit for this one, but I thought I'd post it here. She has been doing this boot camp class and after talking to her I decided to give it a go. It is put on by FitCore Fitness (here's the link: http://fitcorefit.com) and is held at the Flips Gymnastics building here in Bountiful. I know several of our neighbors have tried these boot camp classes before and really liked the results. After talking to Lauretta and others I decided to go with FitCore as the pricing seemed better than the other company in our area and people seemed pleased with them.

My first class was last night and I will say it was tough for me, but I figure tough gets results. This week is free to try for anyone who wants to. It normally runs for 6 weeks, but they are offering a holiday special where you get 3 weeks free for a total of 9 weeks. Anyone interested in getting in shape or maybe just upping their game or looking for a twist to their workouts should check out the website. Thanks to Lauretta for telling me about it!

Em's

If you want a scrumptious meal in a really cute, quaint restaurant, that isn't far from home, I'd highly recommend Em's Restaurant near Capitol Hill! About a month ago I asked some friends (Kristen Holm and Joyce Smith) where Kelly and I should take Kelly's mom for dinner for her birthday. They both raved about Em's and I'd never heard of the place! This is probably because Em's is tucked away in a residential neighborhood west of the Pioneer Museum, 271 North Center, to be exact. You've got to try it! They have outdoor dining too for warmer days or nights! Small and intimate, stylish and fresh. Love it! Hint: the duck is amazing, also the Gnocchi appetizer! Here's their phone #596.0566 Bon Appetit!
