Odds and Ends

So obviously I have not logged everything I ate over the past few days. I will start fresh tomorrow. I do have some pictures though of some things I ate in the last few days. More on that in a few minutes.

This past weekend was go go go. On Saturday mike and I spent most the day getting everything out of the apartment. We didn't finish yet but have a few more days for that.

After that I had my bacherlorette party! It was so much fun! I am so happy I know so many great ladies out here in Austin. Yaya.

We started out at a wine bar called Vino Vino. We had a great selection of wine and tapas. Also i was brought a delicious tiramisu! Mmm. And yes I did have to wear a tiara with a veil attached.

After the wine bar we went downtown to a bar where a friend our ours wa working. We hung out there for awhile then later headed out to the gingerman (an awesome bar with tasty beer). Note: if you wear a veil and a tiara downtown be prepared for a lot of random drunk people to tell you how much marriage sucks and that I am doomed. Awful right? Oh well still had a great time.

On Sunday mike and I went to breakfast then did some shopping for the reception. There I found out (over the phone) one of my best friends is engaged! Yayaya.

Later I did grocery shopping, baked biscotti, cookies and packaged up my Xmas presents. I also did some laundry and other things around the house that needed to be done.

Today was work. And then going to the apartment to pick up a few things, then target, then completed wrapping all presents. I also made a peanut soup again. Mmm.

So fun pictures. Mike has been placing this dog in funny places like this around the house. It makes me laugh for hours.

I made a mac n cheese with cream cheese, cheddar, mushrooms, ham, onions, garlic and cayenne pepper. It was pretty tasty and horrific for you.


Last night mike made me stuffed pork chops with home made apple sauce and some green beans. Amazing!!


For lunch today I got the Bianca roll from china town. Holy moly was this spicy. I went through 10 or more cups of ice water to get me through it. Boy was it tasty though!


For dinner I made peanut soup again. Pretty much veggie broth, onions, garlic, celery, carrots, sweet potato, corn, peanut butter, cayenne pepper, curry seasoning and uhh salt and what not. I absolutely am osessed with it. I made a bunch and saved it for leftovers. Mmm.


Alright off to do more wedding planning then bed. Long night again. But brazil in less than 2 weeks! Yayay.

When we finally sat down mike ordered spinach artichoke dip as the appetizer. I had a few chips and a few small dips. For dinner I had the BBQ chicken chopped salad with no chicken. It was very tasty. Only ate less than half though.

First off, Happy Birthday to my Mom today! Yay.

Yay 3 days of working out so far this week. Well if you count Sunday. Which I probably should not. But I am still sore from Sunday, so I want to. haha. I have been doing the Wii EA Active Sports workout again. That is killer. Today included side jumps and squat jumps. My legs were shaking by the end of it. haha.

Tonight I am hosting "book club". I am going to try to make some peanut soup (spicy) and not sure what else. Perhaps a salad? I should prob figure this out soon. I forgot to clean the house last night like I had planned. oops.

I got home around 7pm, made a tasty meal, and then watched an episode of Top Chef and then Private Practice while I was blogging. Then it was almost 10 and I was dead tired. I helped Mike out with his paper anyway though. I ended up going to bed around 1045pm. Then I woke up at 545am to workout. I am tired right nowwwww. Plus I didn't drink coffee this morning.
