the evening.

The weekend is coming to an end. This has definitely been an interesting and unusual weekend to finish off the unusual week. It was good. I feel like I learned a lot, spent a lot of time with friends and did new things.

I didn’t take pictures of my foods today because it was a whole bunch of snacking throughout the day. I pretty much haven’t been home for more than an hour the last two days so my meals were really, really random.

I did however make my first actually GREEN smoothie:

  • ice cubes
  • tons of spinach
  • 1 whole banana
  • 1/2 cup of coffee
  • tiny bit of cream and sugar

    Interesting huh? It was good! I was scared at first but it didn’t taste like spinach at all. The only reason this one is actually green is because I ran out of raspberries today. Don’t worry, I already purchased more (and more ALMOND BREEZE!)

    I did a TON of stuff today and I don’t really feel like outlining it so I’ll just give you one of the highlights. Gina and I went out to a bunch of places and stopped and got frozen yogurt!! I’ve been craving frozen yogurt for like…a month now. I got a small peanut butter with sprinkles. Gina got some kind of frozen cappuccino drink.

    Alright sorry for the lack of posting today. Things will get back to normal tomorrow, I’m sure. I’m feeling more positive today.

    Have a relaxing Sunday evening!

    Hi Everyone!

    So it’s 12:29 AM right now. I should probably go to sleep but I’m not feeling like it. I didn’t really post all day and I have some fun pictures from today so here goes…

    First of all, I made hummus for Andy’s house for the Penguin’s game. Here is what went into the mix (plus some chickpeas because it wasn’t thick enough):

    All food processed and ready to go:

    Andy had a bunch of foods out:

    HILARIOUSNESS.

    Anyway, soooo my father sent me a gift. HINT: I stared at my wrist practically the whole time I was running today.

    And calories burned and best pace:

    When did I EVER hit a 6:27 pace??? I’m pretty sure that didn’t happen.

    After the run, I cleaned up the apartment a bit (it was a MESS) and then a new friend came over and we walked over to Crazy Mocha and chatted over iced beverages.

    After that and some other things, I picked up Gina and we went to the Cage where I got this lovely tossed salad for like $3:

    Super cheap but good bar food!

    We also ordered beers:

    Dogfish head for me.

    Hey look, I was happy about the beer:

    No really Gina was just playing with the facial recognition on my camera.

    Gina and I hung out and chatted for a bit and then Jason came over.

    See here:

    Gina had a roll of film for some reason.

    Alright that’s about it for the evening. It’s 1 AM and I suppose time to go to bed. I feel good about today.
    Goodnight!
