>Hey heyyy,
Happy Friiiiiday!! Whooop! I’m extra excited for this weekend because we’re continuing Kelsey’s bday celebration!!!
Aaaaaand its the final season of the Cherry Blossom festival. This year I was fortunate enough to be selected for the Cherry Blossom 10-miler lottery!! So excited!!
Sooo a little rewind…Thursday night I took Kels out for her bday. We chose (and I gladly approved) MEXICAN! You know I lurrrve my margaritas 😉
^Pure. Deliciousness.
Check out the swirls:
^REAL margaritas (aka fresh strawberries and lime juice— no sugary crappp)
Dinner was scarfed in 0.22 seconds, so I apologize for the lack of pictures. But I assure you it was fantastic. If you live near DC seriously check out this place…Or their sister restaurant.
I purchased Kels a gift certificate to Sephora and bought a bunch of random goodies that we used to have from our childhood. Here’s a blast from the past:
^Remember these???
And remember looking like this? haha
^Yummmmm.
Here are some more normal eats from last last couple of days:
^Toasted Ezekiel, slice tofu, tomato, lettuce, and 1/2 with red pepper hummus and other 1/2 with Goddess Dressing
^Toasted Ezekiel bread with egg salad (3 eggs whites, 1 .5 yolks, light mayo, paprika, pepper, dash sea salt
^Best. Larabar. Ever. Tastes like a coconut donut.
^Chia oats: 1/4 cup oats, 1 T chia seeds, 1/2 scoop vanilla protein powder, 2 T egg whites, 1 tsp Better N’ Butter, cinnamon, stevia, dash sea salt
^Experimentland salad bar: Romaine, spring mix, egg whites, tuna, tomatoes, chic peas, broccoli, mushrooms, onion, dried cranberries, sunflower seeds, balsamic vinegar
^Lots-o-Caffeination: Coffee, soy, cinnamon…It’s been that kind of week.
And behold the best picture of all….The MANFRIEND is making a SPIRALIZED dinner! Maybe my eats are rubbing off on him a little bit??? 😉
^hehehe
It’s been so nice out lately (mid 80’s!) that I’ve been running outside a lot 🙂 I snapped a pic of one of my favorite areas in MD to run though.
Flower tunnel:
^Pic doesn’t do much justice, but I swear it’s beauuuutiful.
Well I’m gonna head back to Experimentland. Have a great weekend and try not to end up like this! 😉
QUESTION: What foods/candies/drinks remind you of your childhood???
