Protein Pumpkin Squares and Getting Ready to RAID
Yeah baby – it’s FRIDAY!
I am so excited for this weekend. The RAID is one of my favourite local adventure races which I am racing on Sunday. I am headed down to Hamilton to visit some of some of my favourite people the day before. So just a weekend of favourites really…

You may have seen on my Instagram yesterday that things are getting real in fermented land around here.
Genuine Health has some amazing new flavours and there is almost nothing I love more than new things. One thing I absolutely fail at, however, is being a proper white person during fall. Basically, I despise pumpkin anything but I made these squares that are said to be delicious by people who should know. And I will admit I tried them and they were decent even to my taste buds so that is something. (I used to work in sales and sometimes it gets out of control…)

You can see the recipe here. I used Genuine Health Fermented Protein Powder in Vanilla. It is my new favourite protein powder to bake with.
I am going to keep this short but I wanted to do a quick round up of a few random things to close out:

Have an awesome weekend, lady! I’m excited to hear about Raid the Hammer. This weekend I have lots of indoor plans like spinning and brunch, and that’s a good thing because it sounds like we’re getting a torrential downpour of rain!
I hope your race went well! Also, the pumpkin squares look pretty tasty.
