Remember how I said I was going to be doing something surprising on Saturday? Well, the surprise didn’t happen. I got snowed/iced in on Friday night/Saturday morning. I had a fun day anyways and the surprise will be postponed until February. Hopefully the weather will cooperate! This was the scene outside my window around noon, after the snowplow came.

Since I didn’t do “the surprise” on Saturday, I had fun doing other things this weekend like:

1. Running on the dreadmill. I ran 32 miles last week. Not too shabby, but I didn’t go along with my 2012 goal of running in the cold 2x a week. Oh well!2. Eating delicious food. Typical.Iced coffee after an ice storm. Hmmm…MochaChicken tenders, mac & cheese, and green beans.I went out to eat with Jimmy at Eat n Park and got the rosemary chicken with white wine sauce.

3. Did a little bit of homework with a side of peanut butter.4. Woke up looking crazy and messy.5. Walked Lola on a local trail! I don’t have a picture but she was really happy to play in the white powder.

I can’t believe Penn State has already started the third week of the spring semester! I am finally beginning to feel settled into my classes and the coursework. It feels good and I wish I could go back to three weeks ago when I was so nervous and tell myself that everything would be okay. That’s life though!

I’m thinking about writing up an informational post on eating seasonally. What do you guys think? What are your favorite winter foods?!
