Glimpses of the Pittsburgh Ren Fest

Hello all! Sunday was a lovely day. Jimmy and I went to the Pittsburgh Renaissance Festival! Basically it is a big celebration of the 16th century. All of the workers dress up and some of the people who go dress up as well! Jousting, turkey legs, axe throwing, glass blowing and much more makes for a fun time. Here are some pictures I took…

Have you ever been to a ren fest or anything like it?!

Out to eat

Today at 2PM I go to the doctor to discuss a few issues with my nutrition (AKA: Should I continue to be a vegetarian?) I will let you all know how it went ASAP!

As summer is dwindling down to its last few days for me, I have been living it up!

Swimming + reading w/ Jimmy

Shopping (I didn’t buy anything here ^ lol)

Enjoying Pittsburgh

Heinz ketchup! ( I hope everyone in the blog world uses Heinz!)

I have also been out to eat a few times lately… I love going out to eat!! It is super fun to try new things on the menu and not have to labor over a meal every once in a while 😉

This was at Eat n Park.. I forgot to take a picture of my main dish but I did remember to take a picture of the good stuff… corn bread, strawberry coffee cake, and veg + noodle soup!

My mom spoiled me and took me to the Cheesecake Factory! We were MUNCHIN on bread.

Strawberry lemonade = SO good!

Jimmy bought us cookies from Eat n Park 🙂

Coffee + cream @ Cheesecake Factory

That is all for now… I’m going to get ready to go to the doctor soon. Have a GREAT day!

Do you like to go out to eat?
