Salmon & Yogurt Cucumber Salad


     Whenever I thought of making salmon I always thought it was this huge fancy long process, cause you know, salmon is kind of a fancy food right? Well I still like to think of it as a 'fancy' food :) but it is the EASIEST thing to make. No joke. 

     This meal is perfect for a Sunday dinner or for inviting friends or family over. You can impress them because you made 'fancy' salmon, but little do they know it only took you 5 minutes and about 25 minutes baking in the oven. That's it, 5 minutes is even a stretch in this case. 
Here's what you use:
Salmon
Fresh Lemon or Lemon Juice
Lemon Pepper Seasoning
     Pre heat your oven to 400 degrees. Place tin foil on a pan so the clean up is even easier :) Squeeze half of a fresh lemon onto the salmon (or use lemon juice) and then sprinkle lemon pepper seasoning on it! Put in the oven and cook until the fish is flakey but not too pink, usually about 20-25 minutes. 
     The yogurt cucumber salad is very simple and easy too, it's also a perfect side to go with salmon. This recipe is inspired by my German mother in law. Whenever she makes salmon she always has some kind of side like this. I made my own healthier version and I love it just as much. 
Ingredients:
Cucumber
Plain Greek Yogurt
Dill
     Cut up cucumbers, then add yogurt and dill until you like the consistency. This meal would be really yummy with some brown rice or quinoa as well. Now go impress your dinner party!

Threads 4 Thought

        When I was in Hawaii for work in April I was in a Whole Foods with my sister and I happened upon these amazing workout clothes. I didn't eve know that they had clothes there! The brand is called Threads 4 Thought and I am now in love. If you know me at all you know that workout clothes make up the majority of my wardrobe so I can never pass up on a good brand!

        I recently started taking a photography class once a week and this was my first official photoshoot! I wanted to be able to show off these clothes but at the same time start learning how to use my new camera.  It definitely helps to have a model for a sister, so I utilized that perk and had her model for me! She is so talented, every picture I took was perfect. Really though, go check her out on instagram @iamhannahmariah I'm not joking when I say she is a model!

      This brand has a large variety of active wear and at reasonable prices too! Not to mention everything is super comfortable and cute!

 Go check out their website http://www.threadsforthought.com  they are having a Memorial Day Sale and everything store wide is 30% off!

My First Cruise

Since I have been traveling so much I figured I may as well post about my experiences! A travel blogger if you will haha. I got to go on this trip for work can you believe it? We flew to Puerto Rico and the next day we took off to the Caribbean. Sooo amazing, everything about it. Here are some iPhone pictures I took while there. I didn't get a ton of pics but these will have to do!





 While everyone else was drinking rum punch I had myself a HUGE coconut water :) ^

 Typical foot post ^

Swimmer is Maaji and from Called to Surf, I'm obsessed (heart eye emoji) ^










I chickened out from jumping off this waterfall, I still regret it ^
