On the third day of fitness my blog friend gave to me, Dicks Cottons sunglasses.
These are the brand new Mayflower Wayfarer sunglasses from Dick’s Cottons. One lucky blog reader or YouTube viewer will win these shades. The winner will be getting a preppy pair like mine, the tortoise with black lenses. This flattering frame looks good on most people’s faces. I for one have a terrible time picking out sunglasses that don’t look ridiculous on me. I fell in love with these when I saw them this past fourth of July on a friend. It was only the prototype and I had to wait over 5 months to get my hands on a pair! They retail at a reasonable $59 and are 100% UV protected.
“Mayflower Wayfarer Sunglasses – Like these tortoise wayfarer sunglasses, Mayflower Beach is one of the most popular on the Cape and versatile enough for everyone. From newborns to grandparents, from relaxers to athletes, everyone has a blast here. The tide comes in slowly, creating hundreds of mini-pools, sandbars, and waist-high water as far as the eye can see. Maybe that’s why legend has it that Christopher Columbus relaxed here and named the beach after his boat. Get to Mayflower beach early, or don’t come at all. The same could be said of these classic shades, get them early before they’re gone. For post beach fun, get ice cream at Captain Frosty’s, then pizza and beverages at the Lost Dog Pub.” DicksCottons.com
My favorite pub just so happens to be the Lost Dog, so that might be why I like these shades so much. Do you have trouble finding a flattering pair of shades? To enter, leave a comment down below.

Last week, I created a new go-to favorite fall recipe based on my dinner with Ashley of Practical Cooking For One.
Kale and Brussels Sprouts Salad
Time: Prep 20 minutes, Cooking, 15 minutes
Ingredients:
6 cups Kale, stems removed and thinly sliced
2 cups Brussels Sprouts, thinly sliced
1 tbsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 clove Garlic, chopped
1/2 tbsp Lemon juice
2 tbsp Pecorino Romano (or Parmesan Cheese)
2 tbsp Sliced Almonds, lightly toasted
1 tbsp Raisins (optional)
Directions:
In a large skillet, heat 1 tbsp of olive oil (or liberally spray) on medium. Add in chopped clove of garlic and sauté for about 2 minutes. Next add in Brussels Sprouts and cover for about 4 minutes. Sauté for another 5 minutes or until they begin to soften. Next, add in kale. Make sure that the kale and Brussels Sprouts are evenly distributed. Add in lemon juice, some pepper and salt to taste. Cover for another 3 minutes or until kale appears brighter and slightly wilted. Remove from heat. Add in cheese, almonds and raisins. Toss and serve.
This healthy recipe is an amazing addition to any entrée. I had for myself with a homemade turkey burger which I made in the same frying pan as the salad to reduce the amount of clean up. I also left in about a tablespoon of the salad and mashed it into the burger as it cooked. You can have this with quinoa for a vegetarian dish, grilled chicken or favorite white fish. All it needs is a hint of lemon and pepper.
Winners for the Dicks Cottons giveaway will be announced on Facebook and Twitter so make sure you “Like” or follow so you know if you have won. Congrats to Tiff and Tanya who won the sneakers and Gymboss respectively. Comments will be closed Wednesday morning. For additional entries into the contest, leave a comment on my new video on YouTube which will be up later today!
UPDATE 12/7/11 The comments are now closed. Thank you for participating. You can still comment but it will not be counted towards winning.
Wow! Must. Try. This. Recipe 🙂
And I’d looooove to win those Mayflower Wayfarer glasses 🙂
I have the worst time picking out sunglasses as well, they never sit right! That salad looks super appetizing, I’m not a big brussel sprouts fan, would it be as good without them?
Yes, you just would love a little bit of the crunch though.
I could always use a new pair of sunglasses…I’ve never owned a really nice pair! 🙂
Oh, nice shades! Brussels sprouts are hands down my favorite vegetable, I’ll have to try this recipe! Thanks, Sarah — you’re the best!
I love the aviator type of sun-glasses, but i always end up looking ridiculous haha! Thanks for the recipe, I’m not a brussel sprouts fan but I’ll give it a go 🙂
LOVE those glasses! and LOVE the Lost Dog Pub! Just slept in my t-shirt from there this weekend 🙂
I have chipmunk cheeks so I have to be careful picking out sunglasses or when I smile or talk they move up and down…lol. Salad looks great, can’t wait to try it!!
I need new sunglasses!!!!
Wow that looks good! And I have everything on hand already:)
Salad looks delish! Plus, a girl can never have too many pairs of sun glasses 🙂
WOULD BE GREAT TO WITH AND GIVE AS A GIFT TO MY BABY SISTER!!!!
These sunglasses look great!
This recipe sounds delicious! I’m definitely going to try it. Thanks!
So cute! Would love to own them and will definitely try out the salad!
These are so adorable! I would love to win them for sure! And the salad looks yummy too! 😀 Will have to try! Thanks for all you do Sarah!
The sunglasses are awesome and the salad looks delicious. All the different textures… looks like I have to step into the kitchen soon 🙂
I feel like finding the right pair of sunglasses is always a challenge for me. Not only that, once I find a good pair, I end up losing them. 🙁
Salad looks delicious and love those Sunglasses 🙂
Love the sunglasses! Would love to win them!
I’m totally going to try this recipe 🙂
ohhh!!! I love those glasses I have been trying to buy one pair but it’s difficult, because none are good for my face, so maybe these one will be perfect …. about the salad have to try today 🙂 thanks for the recipe .. have a wonderful week 🙂
Yummy! I usually go for the boring salads, this looks like its worth a try!! 🙂
I wish there was some place close for me to buy Kale on my college campus! I would love these shades!! 😀 Help a girl out!
I have done several of your recipes and they were all great
I completely understand having a hard time finding sunglasses. I seem to always end up with a cheap pair of sunglasses that make me resemble a bug 🙂 your salad looks amazing and it’s going on my list of things to try this week, thanks!
love kale, love the glasses, love you! Keep the great info and give aways coming!
I would LOVE to win a new pair of sunglasses. Never have owned a nice pair and I just recently sat on mine so now they are all crooked.
My light colored skin makes finding good glasses difficult because dark frames tend to make me look white. I would attempt to get a tan but I have only two shades -- white and red.
Love the sunglasses!
Ooooooooo…I just got hungry. How is it you always manage to motivate me when I’m feeling so blahh.
I need new sunglasses! They look great on you!
I love sunglasses! Those look very versatile!
Those lovely sunglasses make me miss summer!
Definitely need to try the salad. I don’t think I like Brussels sprouts but now that I think about it I can’t remember the last time I tried them…so maybe I will try them again and hopefully I will enjoy this salad!
Cute sunglasses, and that recipe looks delicous!
I would love to win these sunglasses!!!
Love the sunglasses!
Hi Sarah! I too have a difficult time picking sunglasses that flatter my frame. I always see such cute glasses and once I try them on they look hideous (haha). This is probably because I have a round face and big cheeks! Those sunglasses look SO good on you though, so maybe I’ll have to get myself a pair of those!
That salad looks so good!
I have never had a pair of expensive sunglasses and would love a pair. They would come in handy in the Florida sunshine. I’ve never had a hard time with sunglasses before.
Super cute shades!! Yes I too have such issues picking out sunglasses!! I can go back to a store day after day and try on as many as they’ll let me and it still takes me forever to pick one!! I’d love to try these!
I’m always nervous to buy sunglasses more than $20 because it’s inevitable that something always happens to my sunglasses, whether they’re sat on or thrown off a jetski 🙂
I have the worst time picking out sunglasses…either they don’t sit right or they take up my face in an unflattering way.
The sunglasses are so cute! I’d love to win a pair. I recently purchased the Tone It Up plan (under your recommendation). Right now I’m working on toning up for the vacation my family is planning to Mexico! These sunglasses would look great on the beach paired with some sexy abs 😉
Yes, I have a horrible time trying to find good sunglasses!! 🙂 Either they’re too large, too small, or they’re just plain ugly. I have a small face and typically the sunglasses eat up my face. It’s hard to find good quality sunglasses that are flattering, for sure.
Love the sunglasses on you!!! Also I am definitely trying this recipe on Saturday when my girls come over for our Christmas Get Together =) We are making healthy vegetarian dishes that are Tone It Up friendly. Will let you know how it goes!
definately want to try the salad, and those sun glasses are so cute. love them!
I’ve been wanting a pair of Wayfarers foreverrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!
This looks SO good! I recently tried kale by making kale chips…so good. I haven’t tried brussel sprouts since I was a kid and I found them disgusting! I guess I need to try again… what do they taste like to you?
Yum!! I’ve been looking for a recipe to use up some kale, and one for brussel sprouts. Love that this has both of them together, definitely giving this a try!!
I LOOOOOVE Brustle Sprouts…Will Definatly Have My Brother Make This. Minus the almonds 🙂
I love Kale! I can’t wait to try this reciepe!
This salad sounds so yummy and healthy! Just what my body is craving right now. Thanks for sharing. 🙂
mmmm! gonna try this one out! i usually hate kale though
Love the sunglasses. I always have a hard time finding big sunglasses that fit on my face right and don’t make me look like a bug lol.
I have the worst time finding sunglasses that flatter my face. Mostly because the sunglasses themselves are just too big for my face and end up making me look like a bug!
Would love the sunglasses and the salad looks delicious! Can’t wait to try out the recipe!
I’ve become even more obsessed with making salads lately (more so than usually!) and this looks great. Definitely craving that right now, haha. And I totally feel you about the sunglasses -- I went years without any sunglasses just because I hated how they all looked on me! I have a pair now, but it’s mostly out of necessity since I still think it looks kind of ridiculous on me, lol. But those sunglasses look amazing!
Hey! I always have the worst time finding the right glasses because they never fit on the back of my ears just right! 🙁 I love to try new salad recipes because I get burnt out of salad very fast so it’s nice to change it up!!! 🙂 thanks so much for sharing!
I totally understand having a hard time picking out sunglasses, it seems as though they always look good in the store but look terrible the next day! And that salad! yumm, it looks absolutly delicous!
Looks so good! Can’t wait to try it!
I love the glasses! and the salad looks so good :)) <3 you!
sweet! i want!
Awesomee!!!
I love winning things! And I’ll have to try that salad -- yum!
This looks yummy!
Brussel sprouts and cauliflower roasted together is divine, as well. And finding sunglasses is no easy task. It’s harder than it should be.
Mmm … that brussel sprout recipe looks delicious. Thanks for sharing and for doing these giveaways. I’m not on Facebook, but I follow you on Twitter (I’m @Rawdorable)
those glasses are adorable!!! <3 and that salad looks supper yummy

Thank you so much for these recipes!! I always run out of ideas so you help keep my dinners new and fresh!
I have so much trouble finding sunglasses that look good on me! Also, that salad looks really good, I love your healthy recipes! What is on the salad in the first picture?
I love those sunglasses! I can never find sunglasses that are cute and actually protect my poor eyes from the sun. And I should try that recipe minus the brussels sprouts maybe… But it still looks good! 🙂
This is awesome you are giving away prizes and still promoting great recipes/workouts!
I too have a horrible time picking glasses that look good. These look flattering on a lot of people.
love the sunnies. hope i win! xo

Sounds really good and my wife would love the sunglasses.
Yeah I’d love to have those glasses, right now I’m using some knockoff wayfarers. One of them is straight classic black but the plastic lenses are scratched up and they blind me in the sunlight, the other ones came from the 80s and they have like neon green frames. Those look awesome and would give me the motivation I need to start fitness blogging so I can give away cool prizes like you! 😀
love those glasses , not sure how we enter to win them but i hope i am on the right track, very cute glasses
The sunnies look awesome! It’s so hard finding the perfect type for my face shape. But these look really nice! Hope I can win a pair! *fingers crossed* 🙂

The salad looks absolutely delicious! And the sunglasses look fantastic on you 🙂
