The weekend is over and I’m sad, two days is never enough! Since I haven’t been blogging as much as I would like to the last few weeks I thought I would type out my reflections of the weekend instead of just lying here in bed sad that it’s over!
Friday night Mike and I had a “date night”. We went to 3 point in Akron. The service and food were really fantastic! I got the tilapia and Mike got the chicken alfredo. We were going to see the movie, “The Woman In Black” but on the way we stopped home to let our dog out and decided to just stay home and get a movie on demand. Mike loves going to the movie theater but to me nothing beats putting on my pj’s and laying on the couch! That’s comfort baby! We ended up watching the movie, “In Time”. I really liked it and Mike thought it was just ok. I mean how can you go wrong with JT? He ALWAYS brings sexy back in my book!
On Saturday I fully intended on sleeping in but my internal clock had other plans because I was up and at em at 8am! Waking up my hubby before 10am is just not an option so I took advantage of my “alone time” and began reading a new book I just got via my Nook. It’s called, “The China Study” and if health/nutrition interests you at all I highly recommend reading this book.
“In The China Study, Dr. Campbell details the connection between nutrition and heart disease, diabetes, and cancer, and also its ability to reduce or reverse the risk or effects of these deadly illnesses. The China Study also examines the source of nutritional confusion produced by powerful lobbies, government entities, and irresponsible scientists.”
Once the hubby finally woke up we ran some errands and then bummed around until it was time to go to our friend Tom’s birthday celebration. We headed to Rivera lanes in the Ak-rowdy for a bowling extravaganza! Never underestimate a bowling alleys bar, they make there drinks STRONG! The night ended at a few more of our typical hang spots dancing and drinking way to much! I think my face says it all in this picture…
Mike and I didn’t get home until 3:30am (didn’t you know 28 is the new 21)!!!! I admit when I laid down to sleep last night I prayed to the hangover gods to take mercy on my soul. Luckily I didn’t wake up until 11am this morning and felt great. I had a 6 mile training run to get in today so I immediately ate breakfast (another hangover cure I believe)…
Green Smoothie
1 cup of raw baby spinach
1 tsp. of peanut butter
1 banana
1/2 tsp. of cocoa powder
1 fiber one vanilla yogurt container
ice
2/3 cup water
Blend and enjoy!
After breakfast I immediately changed into my running gear and headed to my favorite running trail, Sand Run! Seriously fellow Ohioans how flipping beautiful was it out today! I am loving this weather. Since it had been awhile since I ran outside and on this difficult trail my goal was to pace myself and to take in the beautiful scenery. I think I only looked at my Garmin maybe twice the entire run. I finished in 66 min flat and I was really happy. Good run + no stomach issues= happy Angela:)!!!
The rest of the day I was a straight bum until I cooked Mike and I a delicious feast for dinner. Which included this…
We’re not big football fans so we decided our Superbowl Sunday would consist of good food and catching clips of the puppy-bowl. The puppy bowl is the most funny/cute thing I have ever seen in my life!
Speaking of funny have you guys seen my new favorite commercial on TV right now?
What was your favorite part about your weekend?
