Share my top blog posts and pages for 2024
Hello friends! what are you doing How was the weekend? Ours was good. The kids had a lot of friend time, P had a basketball game and I taught two barre classes. The pilot had to work and it’s hard to believe it was his last practice weekend EVER. he is retiring at the end of the month!
For today’s post, I’m sharing a roundup of my top blog posts and pages from the past year. It’s always fun to go through analytics and see which posts are performing well, and almost all of them are posts I’ve created to try to provide a lot of value, like a recipe, recipe, full review, etc. It’s also an interesting year because several of these are posts that my SEO team went back and performed surgery on. SEO is SEO-ing and I’m into it! It’s also a great way to introduce new readers to the blog and keep posts from getting published and dying.
Here’s the full rundown!
Top posts and pages of 2024
1. The home page of the blog
This means the most to me because it means the majority of readers are my goodies on the internet who click directly to the blog without finding it through Google. I love hanging out with you all every day and it means the world to me that you check in to see what’s going on. <3
2. Healthy homemade dog food
Masiey’s Dog Food Recipe! I enjoyed writing this post because she absolutely loves this dog food and so many people have let me know their pups love it too! I make a huge batch every two weeks or so and she goes crazy for it.
3. Homemade Gelatin Gummies for Gut Health
This is a recipe that the kids ask to make all the time. They love it and it’s a great way to get some gut nutrients.
4. Easy rotisserie chicken enchiladas
Seriously the easiest enchilada recipe I make all the time and is a real crowd pleaser. Using rotisserie chicken makes it much faster, too!
5. Lazy Sunday Dinner Ideas
I’m writing this post on a Sunday as I’m wondering what the heck we’re having for dinner, so this is one of those posts I wrote because I needed it myself 😉 It has some of our quick and tasty options – dinner options.
6. Homemade protein ice cream
This protein ice cream is so good if you want a sweet treat with a lil protein in there!
7. What to expect at Orangetheory Fitness
I haven’t done Orangetheory in years, but it used to be my go-to workout. Here’s what you can expect in a full class.
8. F45 vs. Orangetheory – my full review
I have switched to F45 and in this post, I am sharing the differences between these two popular formats.
9. How to set up the Peloton bike (or any spin bike)
This is another post I wrote because I realized the information out there wasn’t very helpful lol. When I made the video, I said, “I hope this helps a lot of people who are stuck with bike setup,” and I’m so excited that it made a difference.
10. Morning detox drink with turmeric
This morning drink is hot and spicy with lemon and turmeric. one of my favorite ways to start the day.
11. How to care for a fiddle leaf fig tree
This blog post credit goes 100% to Frieda in all her glory. She is a stylish gal and once I cracked the code on how to take care of her, I knew I had to write a post about it.
12. Pvolve review and if it’s worth it
This is a workout I’ve fallen in love with over the past couple of years and I took a live class last time we were in Scottsdale. If you’re looking for a low-impact workout that focuses on mobility and strength, this can be a great app.
13. How to train for a half marathon while strength training
Share tips on how to incorporate a solid training split when training for a half marathon.
14. Red Dal Lentil Soup Recipe Foods
I love this soup from Whole Foods and used to buy it all the time. A few problems: I don’t like plastic-lined soup cups (hot food causes leaching) and they are expensive. I knew I could make it at home cheaply with organic ingredients and this copycat recipe tastes 100% like the real thing.
15. Mediterranean Egg Bites (Gluten and Dairy Free)
These egg bites are perfect to make and store in the freezer. For a busy breakfast, just pop some in the oven or microwave, grab some fruit and boom. Breakfast is served.
16. TRX workout program for beginners
The TRX is an amazing training tool, but it can be intimidating at first. Here are some of my tips and a plan for beginners!
17. How to keep your guinea pig’s cage clean
This post shares all the details on how to keep your guinea pigs cage clean and your house smelling like a barn. It was my #1 concern when we got guinea pigs!
18. F45 for beginners – what to expect in a class
LOVE F45 and sharing details about this format, what tools they use, training splits and tips for my newbie friends.
19. Sculpt Society Review
Sculpt Society is one of my favorite weekly workouts. The classes are SO fun and unique, I love the trainers (they’re not fake/pure/over the top) and I always get a great workout. If you like barre and dance cardio, definitely try this one.
20. Homemade sea salt hair spray
A simple recipe for a texture spray that you can make at home. You probably have most of the ingredients on hand, too.
So tell me, friends: what would you like to see on the blog this year? Is there anything you’d like to see more of? Is there anything missing from this site that you would like me to include? Thank you very much for your help and comments and for being here.
