{ weekend } Sleep Deprived and Happy

Bonjour!  I woke up Saturday morning thinking it was Sunday.  To my surprise there was much more left to the weekend.  Less than 6 hours sleep does that to me.  The weather has an autumn feel to it, mildly humid for Florida, full sun with clear blue skies and a breeze.  It's a fabulous time to be in Florida!  And the T-Tapp Retreat is coming up on October 7th already.

Saturday's Eats

Brekkie

Abbie's flight left at 3pm, and she still had a few friends left to see... Matty and Val.  We met them plus Lauren and Mike at the (somewhat) new Safety Harbor Grill.  They have a welcoming outdoor patio for dining.

Eggs Florentine with Hash Browns and Ketchup (not shown).

Under that hollandaise sauce are two sunny side up eggs on top of spinach and red peppers and an English muffin.  Delicious goodness for $6!

I also drank an unsweetened iced tea with lemon.

Lunch

Snacked on some of this dried fruit and nut mix.

Then ate 1/4 of a Jimmy John's Turkey Tom on WW.

Dinner

Coho Salmon with Red Quinoa and Steamed Broccoli with Parmesan Cheese.

A glass of Pinot Noir and German Chocolate.

I was supposed to go to the Alter-Ego Art Show, but never made it... car trouble. Grr...

Sunday's Eats

Brekkie

About 4 Raw Vegan Chocolate Cherry Almond Balls.

Blueberry, Spring Mix, Yogurt, Almond Milk Smoothie.

Lunch

A slice of French Toast with powdered sugar, maple syrup and 2 slices bacon.

I spent the rest of the afternoon grazing at Valerie's Bridal Shower.

A glass of champagne...

Munched on some veggies with ranch.

Ate a couple sausage balls.

Some fresh strawberries, kiwi and cheese.

Several potato skins... these are TOO good!

We had some fun girl's time, chatting and making scrapbook pages for Matty and Val.

Dinner

I was still in snack mode when I got home.

Ate the rest of our homemade hummus and veggies.

And drank 1/2 of this Yuengling Light.

Then made some turkey tacos with veggies on the side.

And a little later munched on Animal Cookies and PB.

I didn't keep track of any healthy habits this weekend again.  Kinda let things slide since Abbie was in town, I was catching up on my Z's and having fun friend time.  Since the Retreat starts this week, I'll be sure to make up for any missed workouts!

Au revoir!

P.S. I ♥ my friends! What an awesome weekend.

{ weekend } Beach Day & Rainy Wedding

Gloriously beautiful St. Pete Beach!

As you may have noticed I haven't posted since Friday at lunch... life has been busy! I'm getting ready to move out of my apartment and apparently haven't found the time for blogging.

This post will be backwards starting with Sunday and ending with Friday's dinner and drinks.

This weekend I was pretty bad... skipped blogging, workouts, brushing, oil pulling, supplements, healthy eating, etc. Sometimes it's good to let things go for a few days, however now I feel like my body needs to be reset... and it does!


Sunday, April 25th

My entire Sunday was pretty much wasted away by computer time. Yes, I did clean and organize some of my stuff for the move. But then got sucked into researching stuff online and it was time to head to Matt and Jessica's wedding before I knew it. I got pretty and we started driving to Lutz. The sky looked strange and threatening. After they were married and the reception started (under a tent with tables, flowers, candles and a DJ) the sky let it all out.

Pretty much the entire wedding party got soaked. We moved inside the house to dry off and eat cake.


Eats

Brekkie

Einstein's Everything Bagel with Cream Cheese and Medium Coffee.

Snack

Kettlecorn... gave me a tummy ache!

Lunch

The rest of my Eggplant Marino from Friday's lunch.

Dinner

I ate a small plate of food at the wedding... the meatballs were to die for, and a few bites of a pumpernickel roll. Sorry no photo!


Dessert

Wedding cake! Shared this slice with Marcel.

Matt & Jessica ♥

Saturday, April 24th

Saturday morning we planned on waking up early (yeah right!) and going to St. Pete Beach to meet up with everyone. Well, we ended up going to the beach but didn't get there until about 2pm. The place was packed due to a sporting competition on the beach. I don't think I've ever seen that many people on such a small section of the beach at one time. Even though it was later in the day I still got some sun. The weather was beautiful and breezy, so the beach wasn't hot at all.

After the beach we headed home to shower, change and go to my Dad's for dinner.


Eats

Brekkie

Egg on 1/2 Ezekiel English Muffin with Spinach and Cheese.

Plus a little Organic OJ.

And a Venti Iced Green Tea Unsweet.

Here's what was left of it...

Lunch

I basically had a liquid lunch (a few Bud Lights and a Yuengling) with some popcorn (not pictured).

Later when we got home from the beach I made some Organic Carrot and Beet Juice.

The sunset on the way to my Dad's.

Dinner

Burger on WW Bun with Veggies.

And for dessert... a slice of Apple Pie and scoop of Ice Cream.

Friday, April 23rd

Friday evening after work we had some friends come over, kinda of unexpectedly but it worked out perfectly. We all decided to go out to dinner at Whiskey Joe's... and drove there instead of walking. It was okay this time -- service and food-wise. They messed up our order, but we ate it anyway.

I don't think I got to bed before 2am... so it was a good night!

Eats

Dinner

Marcel and I shared these fried shrimp and salad.

Then the Zwack girls came around giving out shots!

Zwack is an 80 proof (40% alcohol) herbal liqueur made in Hungary with a secret blend of more than 40 different herbs and spices. It was pretty good... kinda of a mix between Jager and Goldschlager.

Dessert

Snickerdoodle Cookie.

Milk & Cookies Ice Cream.
