My fave place to shop: The Farmers’ Market

My fave place to shop: The Farmers’ Market

Hey POPsters!!!

I just went to the Farmer’s Market in Santa Monica and was so happy to see all sorts of fresh fruits and veggies! There were things I had never seen before too, which is always a treat! I got a variety of avocados and even one called the Bacon Avocado!

Haha, no it does not taste like bacon! I was named after someone. I know I know. I was excited too.

In this mix I have the Fuerte avocado, the Zutano avocado, a Sir Prize avocado (this one was expensive, it was $4 for one!), the Pinkerton avocado (I think), and the regular Haas. I can’t wait to make guacamole and slice it up for my salads! Mmmmm, who else is an avocado fan too? How else do you use avocado in your food?

If you’re interested in checking out the Santa Monica Farmers’ Market that I attended in the video, it happens every Wednesday from 8:30am to 1:30pm at Arizona ave and 2nd street. I’m gonna try to see the Venice one on Friday, so if you go, say hello!!!

Also!!! Update on the Spring Fling workout series! It is all filmed and ready to go. Just editing now. I will be uploading part one late Thursday so that you’re able to use it as your new video on Friday fror the #MarchMakeover calendar. This one is a toning video that will tighten up yur look…and beware of the ab portion at the end. Just sayin.

Monday, I will introduce to you Part 2 for fat loss! It’s a cardio video. You’ll need to do both together for amazing results this Spring season! I am really exited for you to see it! There’s new moves, the kind where it looks easy but it so is NOT!!! So I think you’re going to have a lot of fun!

Oh!! And as you can see from the picture, I actually started getting some furniture!!! Yay!! Feels more like a home now. I can’t wait to get some bright pillows to accessorize. Right now the only thing accessorizing is my yoga mat. Who has a cool pinterest board with great apartment decorating ideas? I totes need inspiration!!! Would appreciate any guidance from my interior designers 🙂

Alrighty, off to bed. Tomorrow will be a big workout day for me. I am taking Ana Caban’s Pilates class at Equinox and then Brett Hoebel’s 20 Minute Body at 24 Hour Fitness later in the day. I’ll letcha know how it goes!

Oh…and I really wanna do something to my hair this weekend. My roots are coming out so I wanna dye it differently. I also need a new cut. I wanna keep my hair long…but should I go for more layers? If anyone has ideas for how I can better style my hair, please, I need help 🙂

Thanks guys! You’re all doing so well and I am sooooo proud of you. Reading your fan mail and will get a video up soon. Thanks for sending me your dreams on handmade postcards. I love love love getting them so much. I will make a huge art piece out of it.

Ok I said I was gonna go to bed 3 paragraphs ago. Now for real. I am going.

Love you!!!

<3 Cassey

  7. I am OBSESSED with avocados! Lately, I’ve been slicing them in half, then slice the inside, squeezing a lime on it, seasoning with pepper, topping it with either sriracha or cayenne pepper sauce (Frank’s) and then drizzling a little bit of cheese on top (you can nix this if you want to go healthier) and then broiling it until warmed and the cheese is melted. Perfect comfort food, but not too bad for you. 🙂

    I eat half and give the other half to a friend or family member.

    Hey cassette what color do u have on ur hair in this video.. Pls hate itz gorgeous

  9. Danni says:

    Hey Cassie,

    I have a pinterest board on interior design. Not sure how helpful it is, as most of it is for rooms, but I have quite a few on specific rooms too (eg, bed, bath, kitchen etc).
    Loving the new vids. They’re kicking my arse.
    Love from Australia

  10. Emily Nard says:

    Hey Cassey!,

    I know you said you’d like to keep your hair long, like myself, so I have a little advice. Follow the Farmer’s Almanac :] (if you don’t want to buy the hard copy, they have a really helpful website you can use http://www.farmersalmanac.com) they have a “best days” calendar and it even includes best days to cut your hair if you want it to grow and best days to cut it if you want to slow the growth as well. I know it sounds old timey to follow this, but I’d say our ancestors knew what they were doing. It actually works!

    All righty, love you girl!! Good luck with your hair :],

  11. Kerstin says:

    I adore avocado! I eat it in salads, on a sandwich or in a bun with tomato, cucumber and cress, as pasta sauce, or as guacamole. It even tastes pretty good on pizza (put it on after baking!).

  12. Ariella says:

    where is the new video???

  13. Sarah says:

    I can’t find the Spring Break video!!

  14. aiyana says:

    i love your videos, and especially avocado!! I eat them all the time, my favourite way is as pasta sauce!!
    http://citystylecountrysmile.com/2013/03/01/avocado-pesto-pasta-sauce/
    or as an omelette

  15. Jola says:

    Great video! I just stumbled upon it on youtube. Now, I’m gonna have to take a closer look at your blog 🙂

  16. Lainey says:

    Hi Cassey! Can’t wait for that next video!

    I think your hair would look **gorgeous** with a subtle ombre – lighter strawberry blond ends that gradually transition to your darker roots like Keke Palmer’s hair here: http://beauty.about.com/od/haircolo1/ss/Ombre-Hairstyles-Photos_16.htm

    I know the look is sort of trendy now, but on long haired ladies it looks fantastic!

  17. Ok it’s finally tax time you all know your about to get your bills coverd and all those little things that you’v been wanting game systems movies and so on just remember i have created a website with all your health & electronic needs. Why let Amazon and all the big corps get all your money! It don’t cost anymore $ than the item cost i just get a small peace of it. So please check it out http://www.eatingright.biz and remember to check all the tabs at the top of the screen to find my new Everything Amazon page and i mean EVEARYTHING!

  18. Kelsey says:

    Hey, Cassey. I really think you should go for some highlights close to your natural color.
    If you’re up for going down by Redondo Beach, there’s a great salon there that I went to, Salon Riviera. And it’s across from this cool coffee shop, called Coffee Cartel. 🙂

    Can’t wait to try out the new videos!

    1. Ariella says:

      I love the brown that she has now. it suits her personality more 🙂

  19. macel says:

    I adore avocados! I just chill it a bit in the fridge, mash and add condensed milk. yummo!

  20. Gaia says:

    Hi Cassey – Happy International Women’s Day! It’s awesome that you happened to also buy mimosa flowers at the farmer’s market. That’s the flower you give on International Women’s Day! (at least here in Italy 🙂 I’ve been following your monthly calendar for the first time and it’s great. You’re amazing!! Grazie. xo

  21. Carina Cristina says:

    “Aren’t they cute little cute food?”. Eeeeeck I just wanna hug you real tight, Cassey! Aaaawww hehe 🙂

  22. Maggie says:

    Hi Cassey! I wonder where did you buy your shoes? I mean the pink nike for runner because I can’t find it anywhere 🙁
    Love u!!!!!

    1. Mish says:

      If you’re looking for the pink Nike’s in her picture, then you should look at Dicks and Sports Authority. I just recently went to Sports Authority and bought Nike sneakers, but those exact pink ones are in Sports Authority for $100! Plus, if you can’t spend that much on sneakers, get a Sports Authority rewards card and you’ll get a discount! Hope I helped! 🙂

  23. Anna says:

    Hey!
    The chaise/lounge is super cute! Where did you get it/what is it actually called? I’d love to get one for my apartment! Can’t wait for the new videos to be up !!! 🙂

  24. Zhen says:

    Hi Cassey!

    Just wondering what dehydrator you got? 🙂 I want to try it sometime!

    Thank you!!!

    Sincerely,
    Zhen

    1. blogilates says:

      The nesco fd-75a is the name!

  25. Jennifer says:

    I think you should lighten it up! You look good with highlights. And just trim up the ends and layer it… is it all your hair?

  26. Josie says:

    Ooh yum! I LOVE avocados. I’ve also always wanted to visit the farmer’s market we have here. If only it weren’t such a drive away.

  27. Ashley P says:

    Wow, I didn’t realize there were so many different types of avocado! I love making chocolate pudding with avocados – they make the pudding so creamy!

  28. Miranda says:

    I loveeee avocados! I use themas a substitute while baking sometimes to supply a healthy fat instead of using butter. Also makes a nice (ans expensive) facial mask!

  29. Jelli says:

    I live in Costa Rica and we hit the farmer’s market every week. I <3 it! I'm def weird like you and do lots of comparison shopping before I buy. We also have great little sodas (think outdoor mini-diners) at the market, so we nosh on typical foods for breakfast while we're there too. Thanks for showing us around, Cassey!

  30. Olivia says:

    Hey Cassey!
    I LOVE Farmers markets! I went to the one in La Jolla this past winter and it was ammaaazzing, the one’s here in Ohio are awesome too! But I did have a question, I’ve been following your March Workout calendar (as much as I can) but I have a stress fracture in my heel, so no jumping for me 🙁 are there any of the video’s you would recommend I do in place of them? Thanks! I love your blog!

  31. Sarah says:

    Oh, Cassey! I shop Farmer’s markets the exact same way – explore all of it first and then decide who I want to by from. so fun! Those flowers are amazing!

  32. Liz says:

    Horray farmers markets 😀 There’s an awesome one down the street from me on Sunday mornings- the Hollywood Farmers Market! I hope your moveto LA is still going smoothly!! Will you be teaching regularly anywhere around here?? Can’t wait to spend my morning off doing some of your kick booty vids 🙂

  33. Krystle says:

    ALSO, the cherimoya is also known as a custard apple. It’s super yummy, but super sweet! Give it a shot!

  34. Krystle says:

    Hey Cassie!
    Santa Monica and Venice are far from SF. Are you in the OC or LA now???

  35. Kristy says:

    Hey! Can you please let us know how you liked those varieties of avocados and tell us which one was your favorite? I always see those varieties at the farmer’s market, but then always just end up getting haas. Thank you!

  36. Alex Fleming says:

    Okay so I have a great board on Pinterest called flat dreams its all about decorating small apartments or flats. And about your hair, you should totally dye your hair a chocolate brown with light caramel highlights and long layers that frame your face but keep your hair long.

    xoxo Alex

  37. Kat says:

    I love using avocado in smoothies to substitute for yogurt. They are so much creamier!
    Also you should check out West Elm’s blog- blog.westelm.com for interior design inspiration. Their furniture is stylish, classic, while still being fun.

  38. Alexis says:

    I need to go to the market more, I hardly ever go!

  39. dlisa says:

    Hi cassey, I love your hair how it is,but it would Look even better with some extra layers. And you are definitely on the right track with your decorating. You start with basic pieces and accent the room with pops of color.

  40. Jayde Atkinson says:

    Avocado is definitely one of my favorite foods! I need to look around for some local markets. And Cassey, you look so cute in your ponytails and spring workout clothes! I’m so excited for the spring break series. (:

  41. Mer says:

    I just discovered your blog on Sunday night, and I have been POP-pilates-ing my heart out every day since then. I am totally hooked–I feel pleasantly sore, I actually feel tighter already, and I absolutely love how you are so motivating and fun in your workout videos. Honestly, I’ve been getting up early every day this week excited to roll out my mat and work out with you! It’s just so much fun. After just one week, I am a gigantic fan. Thank you SO much for all you do!

  42. Natalie says:

    Hey, Cassey!
    I just wanted to tell you how I was soaked with sweat an hour ago! I did bubble butt for beginners and it was a lot of fun. I am not beginner, but I should say it was really challenging. Yesterday I did 2 workouts of yours for my butt. I really did my best, and now my glutes are so sore. Thank you Cassey!!!!
    Now I’m going to watch your video.
