A Busy Weekend
Good morning! Whew what a busy weekend it’s been! Busy weekends are definitely my favorite.
On Friday, Lee and I went out to dinner at West Main. I ordered the shrimp salad and he got a burger.
I love shrimp in salads. The dressing was really good too. It was a chipotle ranch flare and really kicked up my salad. This was our first time at West Main and we definitely enjoyed our food.
After dinner, we walked around the downtown mall and then went to go see Silver Lining Playbook at the movie theater This movie was really great! It was really funny and entertaining. I haven’t seen a good movie like this in a long time. Definitely check it out!
Saturday morning, Lee and I went to The Flat for brunch. This place is pretty awesome. They sell lunch and dessert crepes.
They were very tasty but a little intense. Mine had chicken, spinach, brie, and jelly. I loved the combination of the flavors. We both agreed that they could probably afford to be smaller with less ingredients and less butter. I know, who wants less butter? Sometimes it’s just a little much. 🙂
We walked around the mall area after filling our bellies and then ran some errands. Later that afternoon, we drove to Blue Mountain Brewery with my roommate and friends to enjoy the nice weather. We even saw one of Lee’s friends there. It was a nice evening spent with good friends and lots of laughs. (Practicing my Nicolas Sparks voice for the day that I become a writer I suppose ;))
That evening, we want to a friend’s going away party and had a great time. Two of my best friends were in town too so we had a ball together.
Sunday morning I woke up a little groggy from a fun night and Lee and I grabbed Arby’s for lunch. (Bethany– Lee always likes to say “Babe, you thinkin’ Arby’s?” like Puddy would say to Elaine on Seinfeld.) I got the chicken tenders combo and we split some mozzarella sticks. Lee jokingly said I could leave this fancy meal off the blog. 😉
After lunch, Lee left and I went hiking with my girlfriends who were still in town. We hiked Hump Back Rock which is a little over a mile long trail to get to the top of the pretty mountain.
It felt good to sweat it out after a long hiatus of no working out. Speaking of which, I’m finally feeling better and ready to hit the gym this evening! To say it’s been too long would be an understatement!
After our hike, we went to Sweet Frog, the best place ever. I got coconut, mango, and cheesecake frozen yogurt. The cheesecake only had 60 calories per serving! Not that I really care but that’s great that Sweet Frog is making healthier options available.
We then parted ways to shower and get ready for a nice dinner at Mono Loco.
My meal was awesome. I got pollo con queso and we ordered chips and salsa to split among the table.
I’m actually having my leftovers for lunch today and probably dinner tonight or tomorrow! This meal was intents but oh so delicious. We finished our meals and then went back to watch a movie and chit chat. At around 10:30, I was definitely not ready to leave but I was so sleepy and knew I’d be tired in the morning so I headed home and called my weekend a great success.
Hope everyone had a great weekend!
