Weeknight dinners are my jam — I love gathering with my little family around the table and talking about our days. I also have a 5-year-old who is obsessed with eating out and at least once a week asks, “Can we have a [dinner] date out, please?” The answer is routinely no, but that doesn’t mean I don’t indulge her in making Wednesday night dinner feel special to cure her craving.
Thankfully it doesn’t take a ton of effort to make weeknight dinners feel special. Some things are obvious, like actually using a tablecloth or wine glasses, but here are nine of my favorite ways to make a weeknight dinner feel special for every diner at your table.
Budget-friendly chicken thighs — cooked simply in some olive oil with salt and pepper — consistently deliver juicy, flavorful results. But sometimes you want to punch things up a little, even if it’s a weeknight and you don’t have much time to spare or energy to expend. Enter: this sticky-sweet lemon-turmeric glazed chicken with honey, black pepper, and curry powder.
Once you start traveling with kids, you develop a deeper appreciation for the vacation rental. Beyond the obvious amenities like kitchens with full-sized fridges and bath tubs, these rentals have more space for the kids to run around and also to give you some peace and quiet to relax. Hey, it’s your vacation too, right?
Airbnb and VRBO both have a kid-friendly filter that you can and should use, but “kid-friendly” means something different to me as a parent of two wild-spirited preschoolers than it does to a homeowner with tween-aged children. I’ve learned that there are a few extra considerations to make sure the vacation rental is right for me and my brood. Here are the top five things I look for.
It’s Monday morning. Images of the weekend flow through your mind as you snuggle deeper into your pillow, reliving them. Then you open your eyes, see the clock, remember the presentation you have to give in an hour, and, heart racing and teeth clenched, you rush to the kitchen to make coffee. That’s one version of Monday morning.
Here’s another: You set the alarm 15 minutes earlier and ease into the day by simply paying attention to your breathing. I’m talking about meditating — and if even hearing that word makes you feel antsy, bear with me for a minute, or rather 10. After all, it’s said that practicing daily for just 10 minutes could help you feel calmer and more grounded.

Warrior Fit Testimonials
First, I want to say thank you for convincing me to do Tabata! I was struggling to lose weight and Finally I found something that helped! I really appreciate your coaching! - Craig T.
Ever since I was convinced to do Tabata I have seen huge results, I lost 6 pounds and gained energy in the first 3 weeks. I have been working out for 3 months before I decided to do Tabata and I struggled to lose weight.
At first I thought "How am I losing weight by bringing my heart rate up then cooling down then bringing it up again?" I don’t know how it works but it does!
Thank you!! - Theresa F.
The first day of Tabata, I wondered WHAT AM I DOING - I AM 56 !! Five weeks later I knew that it was what I needed. I learned that I could push myself well beyond my comfort zone and feel good later. I have a marked improvement in physical as well as emotional endurance. - Lyn C.
When I was first told about Tabata I was very excited from the word go, however that excitement stemmed from the fact that I had no clue what it meant. I missed the first week of class b/c I was traveling for work so when I came in during the 2nd week I had some making it up to do.
It was hard at first b/c my body wasn't used to working out at such a fast pace, but once I got into a rhythm I started to feel very good. These classes are no joke. If you stick with it you will leave there feeling stronger, healthier and overall better about yourself and what you've accomplished.
I would recommend these classes to anyone. Darrin is a great trainer and he'll keep you going with his energy.
