Some thoughts and discussions from me.
What a Weekend & Leftover Double Cooked Skillet Pizza
Hi there!
What a great weekend. Friday included just a couple clients, my favorite yoga class with my favorite instructor (she comes up with thought-provoking quotes or literature, creates the most beautiful flows, makes you sweat buckets, and then gives you a damp, essential oil-infused towel at the end!) and then concluded with some more fun:
Drinks and dinner at Oskar Blues (my favorite!) There’s a brewery down the street from us, but we love going to the restaurant to get the best of both worlds – beer and delicious food. We were doing some celebrating of sorts, so we went all out with drinks, appetizers, and dinner.
To say I was stuffed afterward would be an understatement. We even turned down going out afterward and I went to bed without dessert – two rarities 
Then Saturday was jam-packed. It started off with boot camp – I taught it and Shane participated – and just kept going full speed from there. After boot camp and doing some things around the house, Shane and I drove to Gregory Canyon to meet Heather for a hike!
Shane and I had already had a hike on our schedule, and it worked out for Heather to come along and join us 
It was my first time meeting Heather, and she’s just as sweet as she is on her blog. It was a tough, shorter (a little under 2 hours,) and gorgeous hike near Flagstaff Mountain.
I’ll do another Boulder Hiking Recap post on it this week
After our hike we had to say goodbye to Heather – we had LOTS to do in little time. Unfortunately, the two places we needed to go were kind of a bust, but we did get to Whole Foods to grab some groceries, along with some appetizers for a get together we were having later. Then we raced home, showered, and went to church, me with no make up and wet hair (wet hair, don’t care ) and set up for our guests. We had a few friends over for drinks, pizza, and cards, where I stayed up way past my bedtime and drank way too much wine. Oops. Unfortunately, my body likes to punish me, and even though I went to sleep after 1:00, I was up bright and early at 6:30. Well, maybe Shane’s snoring had something to do with that, lol. It’s ok, I got a nap later 
We also went out to breakfast for some greasy recovery food (ha!) and then played around a bit.
We found this cute market across the street that sold home-baked gluten free bread, pastries, and more. I came home with some pork sausage and homemade tamales.
The rest of the day involved cleaning, a couple errands (Target and Sprouts,) writing client training programs, and then the most epic post-fun night lunch ever.
Leftover double cooked skillet pizza!
So I’ve told ya’ll how my favorite way to heat up leftover pizza is in the skillet, which is in amazing in itself. But I learned a way to make it even more awesome. It’s better than cold pizza, microwaved, or reheated in the oven. My friend Jamie, who was over this weekend, told me about it, and I’ll never reheat pizza another way again! Here’s how you do it:
Heat up a little olive oil over medium heat in a skillet. Add your pizza slices to the pan, crust side down, and cook for about 2-3 minutes. Then, and this is where to super tasty part comes in, flip over the pizza so the cheese side is face down and cook for another minute or so.. Not only does this heat the pizza all the way through, but it also gets the cheese all melted and kinda cooked and just delicious.
The rest of the day I finally relaxed and we all took a family nap. What a weekend!
I hope you all had a great weekend, too!
What was the most fun thing you did this weekend?
Yoga classes like that are the best!

Interesting idea with the pizza! I hate how the microwave makes it all soggy.

Score! I have some leftover pizza from last night with which I’m def going to try the skillet method!
That sounds like my favorite yoga class and teacher! That is a brilliant way to reheat pizza, my husband would love it – he hates soggy pizza from the microwave. We had a family supper out for my little brother’s birthday and met our friend;s new little baby boy 🙂

Be prepared to go on MANY double dates with Greg and me at Oskar Blues! We’ve been to the brewery a few times and went to Liquids and Solids just once- and didn’t even get beer because we were going over the brewery after to drink plenty… and had a 5k to run a few hours later…
I’m so glad you got to meet Heather! She’s the best! And her and her husband Kirk know A LOT about beer (and brew it too!).
The pizza looks delicious. I’m tempted to buy a pizza, cook it and then just save it all for leftovers. I LOVE “burnt” cheese. Mmmmm.

I never would have thought to re-heat pizza this way! I’m definitely going to try it. Yum!

Sounds like a great weekend! I get so jealous of all these blogger meetups in the form of hiking. Wish I could go!

I would never think to do that with leftover pizza. That’s a good idea! I usually used the oven if I ever had leftovers, but the skillet sounds better.
Sounds like a great weekend for you guys! And how awesome you got a blogger meetup in there too. I want to hang with bloggers so bad. I miss it.
Happy Monday!

It was so fun to meet you this weekend – I told Kirk he has to meet you guys soon, so we can hike 14ers together. And I didn’t even realize we hiked for almost 2 hours, it went by so quick. 🙂
