Lovely weekend

I think the word lovely perfectly describes my weekend.

Highlights of the weekend:

  • Friday: Going to Kennywood with Jimmy. It was Hannah’s school picnic day and since I was still her guardian for the week, I got to go! I had a blast and actually rode a new roller coaster. Best of all? I got to have some delicious watermelon and stayed till the park closed.
  • Saturday: My parents came home from their anniversary trip! I also washed my truck and went out to dinner with my family + Hannah’s friend.
  • Sunday: Going to church and hearing some awesome sermons, enjoying lunch made on the grill, and planting my garden.

I don’t have a lot of pictures from Sunday… just one of Jimmy’s little brother 🙂*

I had such a nice weekend! I feel so blessed, as per usual. This week I am teaching four Spinning classes and my mom is having foot surgery on Thursday so I’ll be taking care of her and the house.

Bible verse of the day:

This is what the Sovereign Lord, the Holy One of Israel, says: “In repentance and rest is your salvation, in quietness and trust is your strength.” Isaiah 30:15

What did you do this weekend?!

Recent Eats

First things first in the foodie department: I finally put up my recipe for mac & cheese! Also, I have another recipe soon to come. Here’s a sneak preview:It involves cornflakes and peanut butter. Can’t go wrong with that combo!

Now for the recent eats:

Microwave popcorn

Luna bar & Italian bread with peanut butter

An apple with peanut butter

Hard boiled eggs. These we a snack before I taught Spinning the other night.

A severely under-cooked microwave corn muffin for one. I love dough.

Blackened tofu

A de-constructed stir fry dinner

Chicken Alfredo at Eat n Park

Steak salad topped with red peppers and onions from a local cafe

Salmon salad, also from a local cafe

Salsa chicken. This was almost a disaster. I was going to use my family’s outdoor grill for the first time but it ran out of gas… after I pull all the raw chicken on the grill. George Foreman saved the day though!

Lots of drinks. I’m always thirsty.

Coffee and my Bible. My favorite way to start the day.

Iced coffee and my Bible. My other favorite way to start the day 😉

I’m just hanging around my house today (for the most part..) and then teaching Spinning tonight at 4:30 and 7:15. Hope you have a great day!
