I *HEART* July

Well I don’t know about you but July has been one of the best months of the year so far for me.

Why?!?!

I was extremely honoured by the fact that my blog was featured on the Channel 4 Food Website

…ran my first ever 10K for Race for Life and  ran a new PB of 1 hour and 1 pesky second :)

…presented at my first ever international conference at the IBRO World Congress Meeting…

…that just happened to be in one of the most beautiful cities of the world, FLORENCE!!!

I got to take in the amazing sights and also got to taste some of the best food ever

Gelato anyone?

…my very clever boyfriend officially became a doctor at his graduation…

…I finally made the decision to become a pescatarian after months of not eating any meat, which means a diet rich in healthy and fresh produce…

…which I just love!

Also I’ve de-cluttered my wardrobe and sold my unwanted items and reinvested the money into a food dehydrator!!!

How was July for you?  What have been your highlights over the past month?!?! :)

    Personally July was a bit frustrating for me as I’ve got lots of things in the pipeline that I’ve been waiting on, and I’m not the most patient person in the universe. But the past week has seen a few things resolved and move forward, so now I’m looking forward to an Awesome August :) x

    July really does sound like it’s been an amazing month for you! And you deserve it :D The highlight of my month was definitely finding a condo that I want to buy, and having my offer accepted. Woo! Moving in the middle of September, and I can’t wait!

    Wow, July really has been a great month for you! You’ve made some amazing accomplishments! :) My recent highlights are the amazing trips I’ve taken lately – Greece, Finland, Denmark, Iceland, and Newfoundland. And of course riding my horse is always a major highlight! :D

    I hope August is as good for you as July was!

    July was a bit meh for me. Hoping August will be better.

    Oh and I would totally read your poster. Perfect picture to text ratio. Some scientists need to learn the difference between posters and journal articles!

    It sounds like you had a pretty spectacular month! So much good stuff – so little time!

    My month was pretty darn good as well. Actually, all summer has been pretty great, except for the extra work I’ve done with my house, but even that can be rewarding.
